    Bernard Hopkins vs Chad Dawson

    I feel this would be a great fight, I'd give the edge to Hopkins because of his mastery against Southpaw fighters (Tarver,Winky and Calzaghe).

    What do you think? I think the old dog would just have too many tricks for Dawson who seems to fade late anyway.

    I'd like to see Hopkins kick Dawson's ass.

      Hopkins would give Dawson a lot of trouble but as in all his fights now, his workrate would be a big factor in the fight.

        Hopkins style would cause Dawson problems but Dawson's workrate would maybe get him the victory.

            Dawson always gasses.

              Hopkins TKOs Dawson with a head butt that causes a deep cut over Dawson's eye, and the ref Joe Cortez doesn't see it and decides it was caused by a punch.

              This happens after ten rounds of low blows, rabbit pounching and hitting & holding from B-Hop.

                Dawson wins this comfortably. Better boxer then Taylor and Calzaghe. I dont see how anyone could give Hopkins decision here when he doesnt do enough at his age.

                  ****ing A Tunney... You really hate Hopkins..

                  At least you know he'd win though...

                  I think he might give Dawson problems but if he won, it'd be by a razor thin decision. Dawson would get beat up and bruised but he'd win because of his workrate IMO.

                    Hopkins has trouble with Speed, Something Dawson has. I see Dawson winning a decision
