Hopkins Targets Froch...What About Chad Dawson?

[El Dominicano]

So what? That's cherry picking. Instead of fighting the people in his division, dude decides to call out guys UNDER his weight class who also happen to be tailor made for him.

Dawson got the win, get over it. Who are the #1 & #2 ranked Light Heavyweights in the world?? As a fan I want to see the best in the division fighting the best.

How many fights did B-Hop have at 160? Really, Froch is the smaller guy, what kind of excuse is that?

[Sonou]

The reason Hopkins wants Froch is simple, that's an easy fight for him, and Dawson would be way too difficult for Hopkins at this point.

Pretty much.

[El Dominicano]

I'm not saying B-Hop shouldn't fight Dawson, what I'm saying is Dawson needs to avenge his lose to Glenn Johnson, then step up to The Executioner

Where is BHOP fighting at now?? Why do you expect for me to answer your questions when you don't answer mine??

Froch is MOVING UP if he decides to fight Borenard. If you nuthugging Hopkins fans can't see the ducking he's doing with Dawson, then I don't know what else to say. That didn't stop him for fighting Pavlik, and now wanting to fight Froch. Unless he really hates white people?

You talk about avenging a loss but he still hasn't done it himself with Roy Jones.

He ain't duckin Dawson.
B-Hop doesn't duck anybody
B-Hop and ducking don't go together

Dawson is a southpaw with very fast hand speed/ great workrate...Calzaghe is the same also, why didn't B-Hop duck Calzaghe? You telling me Dawson is the better fighter

Listen to yourself

Way to try and flip the ****. I wouldn't say better fighter, but a better puncher. He doesn't slap.

BHOP is a ducker, though not as bad as Floyd, he just does it intelligently. What's even more funny to me is that he ducks and the mother****er is 3-3 in his last 6 fights.

Calzaghe is retired now, Dawson isn't. Poor Calzaghe even had to move up in weight too. Not surprised.

[Kesslerfan#1]

If Froch is so overrated then what does a win against him do?


British hype their fighters just as much as Americans/Mexicans/PuertoRicans/Pinoys do.

well he will get the WBC belt therefore "possibly" set up another big fight for himself before he retires...if he ever does LOL!!!
Maybe a Kessler fight?

The news gets wilder when it comes to Bernard Hopkins. Out goes a rematch with Felix Trinidad, and in comes WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch. The fight makes little sense to the "legacy" of Hopkins. There is no revenge logic. Hopkins, who lost two fights to Jermain Taylor, already dominated Kelly Pavlik, the man who beat Taylor twice. Last month he wanted to go up to cruiserweight to fight IBF champion Tomasz Adamek. That fight fell through after Adamek refused a lowball offer of $500,000. [details]

after the froch taylor fight on saturday i said that hopkins would want froch and almost a week later it has been confirmed

Honestly, he could easily do that right now but he ain't.
