So went to the hopkins eastman fight on saturday at the staples center... and let me say that hopkins definitely let me down. out of the 12 rounds the fight went, at the most the most rounds he could have won would be 2 or 3..... so when the last round ends, and were awaiting the judges decision, im thinking howard eastman will take over the middleweight belt from hopkins.... but nope.... they gave the fight to hopkins.... i couldnt believe it! im a big hopkins fan, esp since his last fight when he knocked out de la hoya... lol, but he didnt deserve to win the fight

just goes to show that it is in fact fixed sometimes...

but the fight kicked *** regardless.

eastman only looked like he had a chance from rounds 1-3...i have no idea how u thought eastman could have won when u were waitn for the decision , Cuz Hopkinz schooled him from rounds 5-12

 

no he didnt im telling you.... its different, you see more when your at the fight... i watch boxing all the time and i would have said eastman won at least 9 or 10 rounds.

You two get a room! I just had to say that

now what I really wanted to say is, VG remember how you were wondering how come nobody was going to the fight except you 2. Well there you have it. I knew it wasn't worth attending a fixed fight IMO.

yea i think you guys had too much to drink before the hopkins fight cuz there is no way eastamn could have won,mabey 2 or 3 rounds and thats being gernerous(sp?)
