      It sucks. I don't expect to see it go down, but I'd luv it if he did. Odd that Glen is more worn than Bhop is, yet Chad don't want it wit him but is hopin for Bhop. I'm dyin to see 1 of em light Dawson's ass up.

        nah i dont see it. i think dawson can pull it off antonio tarver is very underated at 40 years old did you see his hand speed or how smooth he was thats just unbelievable. its hard for anybody to look good against him especially in a rematch. chad was just doing his job it gets tough in there same thing with ****ing glen johnson. tarver and johnson are old age wise but they got a late start to boxing so in there 30s when everybody else had maxed out they were still learning new things. new tricks all that. even hopkins there not all worn out so if he looks bad against them **** there not you ordinary older fighters

          I'v always said that dawson would beat hopkins simply because he is too athletic, quick and busy for hopkins. hopkins is now fighting guys who he can beat (what else is new?) to try and make the most money nothing more, thats why hes targetting people like froch, pavlik etc.

          he knows dawson will beat him and thats why hes gone on record and said that he will never face 'bad' chad. if hopkins thought he could beat him he would already have negotiated the fight with dawson.

          thats another reason why the fight won't be made because hopkins is an a$$ when it comes to negotiating and vastly overstates his resume and accomplishments. he can hardly attract a crowd and has to rely on either another popular fighter (calzaghe, pavlik, tito) or pre fight shenanigans (wright, tito), yet he goes to the table naking unrealistic offers.

              Glen didn't look too good against Daniel Judah his last time out, Chad should just rematch him and get it out of the way.

                It might be Dawson's biggest fight but not Hopkin's.Hopkins wont benefit in any way fighting Dawson,Dawson dont sell ****.He's a good fighter no doubt

                    BHop is 44 years old, he would have to be at his prime to beat Dawson. BHop is semi-retired to say that he can beat any LHW or SMW is ludicrous, let alone Dawson. Dawson has problem with pressure fighters with skills, Hopkins at his age is NOT a pressure fighter, he's a counter-puncher, Dawson eats counter-punchers alive (Eric Harding, Antonio Tarver).

                    I think since his close win against Johnson, Dawson can handle any fighter, whether be a puncher, slugger, boxer, etc. Dawson has learned from his mistakes.

                      You sounds pretty confident on Dawson.
