      actually I think hopkins will ignore dawson successfully

        Joe is what 37 now? If Joe wanted to make a point he would have fought Dawson. Like Max Kellerman said, He (Dawson) is "THE MAN" to beat... there is NO ONE else. Joe wanted no part. He's smart not GREAT.....
        Hopkins should retire like Calzaghe and stop playing with our balls in hope of seeing him fight Dawson.

        Hopkins and Calzaghe didn't want any part of Dawson. Too high risk/low reward.

          yes, i thought it ****** when i heard tarver was inforcing rematch clause and dawson excepting .
          but dawson may have actualy did the right thing for his career.
          hbo investing big bucks on him and he's in there against a known quantity
          that is an easier fight then others in that division.
          seems like dawson has his head screwed on right to me.

            Looks like the Bhop fight ain't happenin, so after Tarver, rematch Glen if you're stayin at 175 Chad.

              See thats where I dont agree. Dawson is "THE MAN" to beat, the ONLY man to beat. Joe could have made a BIG statment and prove that he was the best.

              Maybe if Dawson had just lost by KO or was about 20 years older we might have seen it...

              As for Hopkins. He knows he's old. Dawson wont do anything for him. Fighting Adamek and retiring should be the way for Hop to go out.

                This is the same Adamek that got dominated by Dawson? I wouldn't respect Hopkins going for him instead of Dawson.

                  It has nothing to do with that. Hops going for money and Legacy..... another words that CW belt Adamek has. It looks good on paper.... He has nothing to prove.....
