Bernard Hopkins W12 Karo Murat - Retains IBF light heavyweight title. Very typical performance from The Alien early - conservative and calculating. In the 3rd, Murat landed a clean left hook to enter the fight. Two flush lead right hands late in the round put Murat in his place. In the 4th and 5th, Hopkins turned bully on the inside before kissing Murat on the back and head, a strange move followed up by a punch on the kisser after the bell. In the 6th, Murat took a shot at Hopkins while BHOP was down after a tumble. In the 7th, Murat lost a point for hitting on the break before Hopkins opened up to initiate heavy exchanges. Toe to toe trading in the 8th and 9th takes a heavier toll on Murat who appears fatigued in the 10th. Hopkins fresher in the championship rounds of a VERY dirty fight. Scores: 117-110, 119-108, and 119-108.
