Well, a lot of commentators are with him on that point. And it was a split decision with very close scorecards. I haven't seen it yet either, so I have to withhold judgement.

could it be that the judges were given a money , cuz i know that kid`s promoter is the ex promoter of bernard ?????? and they had a bad relationship , he even took him to court so you never know after all its

america money talks and bulllsht walks

I can see how he thought that. If you had it 5-3 Taylor after 8, and give the last four to Hopkins, you have 7-5 Hopkins. I had it 6-2 Taylor after 8, and STILL had it 6-2 after an immediate rewatching of the tape. But 'Nard STILL won the last 4 clearly. The real confusing part was the one judge giving Taylor round 12, which was probably 'Nard's most convincing round of the whole fight. , and would have given a split draw. Also confusing was how Kellerman had it 4-4 after 8. I rewatched it IMMEDIATELY after, and NO WAY could I see a way to give Bernard 4 of the first 8. Press row all had it 7-5 'Nard.

MM and Intell, you both make good points. But again, the "funny" part was how the one judge gave Round 12 to Taylor. The Kid got mauled in that round. But I gotta say, THAT smelled funny, and Bernard cleverly set himself up for another nice pay day by "losing without losing," and avoiding a beatdown. Which would tax a 40 year old body, the same way Gatti's three wars with Ward broke him down beyond repair, as he's now a shot fighter. But it looked like the Bernard masterfuly "threw" the fight to set up another payday without gettin hurt.
