I wonder who wins a fight between present day Chad Dawson and B-Hop circa 2005-2006. I'm not too familiar with Chad so I will let other people more familiar with both fighters and styles crack some eggs of knowledge on this thread. Who wins, and why? Please explain a lil bit if you want us to believe your opinion
Different styles I know, but I thought Johnson beat Dawson in the first fight. Ive never been overly impressed with Dawson. Hopkins when he was a bit quicker and sharper would have taken Dawson out of the fight. It would have been ugly and rough, but Hopkins wins a UD.
IDK man, Dawson is P4P one of the best on the planet but B Hop is an entirely different animal especially right when he fought Tarver. Maybe Dawson could pull it out with youth but I lean towards Bernard.
You can tell that at that point B-Hop having to make 160 was really killin' him. He looked rejuvenated against Tarver, showing much better stamina. I'll roll with B-Hop, Chad Dawson still lacks inside fighting somewhat and we know damn well B-Hop would more then hold his own on the outside.
