    Hopkins also said that he does not want to fight and ruin Dawson because Chad is supposed to be boxing's future star.
    Pavlik?

      B-Hop ducked Dawson... He know he can't beat that Bad Man.... I think he won't retire until he age 50... Boxing is his life and i like B-hop but hes a boring fighter...

          I think it's interesting Hopkins would say that about Dawson. He's being very dismissive while hyping up Taylor. Again, Chad has a showcase bout on HBO against an opponent who's far tougher than a Jeff Lacy. If he looks good, along with HBO, they can exert some pressure here.

            I don't think Dawson/Hopkins should happen. Presonally I think Hopkins should retire as an ATG and focus on promoting.

                He might go after Dawson just to show up Calzaghe. I'd be for it.

                  Yeah, kinda like how he did to Jones by going after Tarver when Tarver beat Roy.

                    Dawson, if anybody. I'd tend to agree it's probably a good time to hang up the gloves, though. The demolition of Pavlik is as good way to go out as any, in the absence of a rematch win over JC.

                      Calzaghe is a sucker for retiring. Hopkins should get another rematch since he did win the first fight.
