I didnt watch the fight but from what Ive read it seemed like Bernard dominated, though Howard complains BH ran all night...
meh... Hopkins did what he needed to win the fight. He didnt want a war with Eastman and Eastman didnt force him into one, Eastman is a counter puncher, and he just was out thought and out boxed. He was just upset with himself I think, because he knew he was just outclassed.

But Hopkins will get old one night, just like Roy Jones did... but it wasnt that night.
