  Did you actually watch it?  He was all over him after the knockdown.

  Yeah, that's right... the Welsh underdog always wins in those circumstances.

  I reckon he's entitled to a bit of swagger.  Hard enough to win over an American opponent, in America...  virtually impossible to impress the judges after you've been knocked down.  To win, especially over someone as good as Hopkins, is a real achievement.
