    Hopkins To Face Dawson/Johnson II Winner?

    Saw on btalk, Hop seems to be doing whatever it takes to get the best in the ring, hopefully the winner wont pull an Adamek.

    Bhop can't wait around. I'd luv to see him fight Chad. If Glen won, no real point to that. I wish Bhop coulda got the Froch fight if Adamek wasn't goin down so he could finish wit a belt. This rematch figures to be tough on both, so the winner might not wanna go str8 to Bhop afterward. Bhop might end up retirin if he ain't got a fight signed by yrs end.

        I saw that on the web site too. I would like to see a Hopkins-Dawson fight. But since I don't like Dawson and being a fan of Johnson, I've still got to root Glen on when him and Dawson fight in November. If Johnson won, I wouldn't be interested in a Johnson-Hopkins rematch. I would rather see Hopkins fight Adamek. Whoever wins the rematch between Johnson and Dawson should probably try to get in the mix at 168 and fight Bute and await the winner of the tournament that is getting ready to go down if they are looking for a lucrative fight.

          Adamek is gonig to fight Cunningham again. Froch is tied up with the tournament. All that leaves is Dawson after he beats Johnson. I think he would consider USS if he beats Adamek as well.

            i doubt that since they have the same trainer, and hense train togheter aswell. he wont fight USS.

            hes not waiting around for adamek, he might fight chad if he beats johnson. i dont see any reason why not. if he wins, its a huge win and propels him even further. if he loses, he can bow out of the game losing to a future great champion. it'll be like a passing of the torch, and the loss wouldnt hurt his legacy due to his age.

                I don't think they train together and Richardson just started training Cunningham for his last fight so I doubt that would stop them from fighting each other if he prefers that match over Dawson.

                  they wont fight eachother. i have a hard time seeing richardson having two world class fighters only one weightclass apart and not matching them to sparr. both being philly fighters they probably sparred before ****m took on USS too. more than anything i dont really see the reason for this fight being made. i mean fighting a slow, plodding, predictable adamek is one thing. but USS? with the weight diffrence its just not gonna happen. styles make fights, BHop cant fight someone at the top level, with USS's style and size, not to mention he doesnt get a whole lot from that fight compared to chad. and the fact that they share a trainer. no way in hell this fight happens. u know it too, just be man enough to admit u made a bad statement. it happens to everyone.
