If not then why is Hopkins jumping to fight Pascal when before he didnt want to fight Dawson and has showed no interest after Dawson put on a lackluster performance against Pascal. What did Hopkins see in that Dawson/Pascal fight to jump at Jean?

How was Pascal "exposed" when nobody gave him a chance in the first place? He was a huge underdog, but did enough to win while showing his own vulnerabilities that everyone knew anyway.

Hopkins took the fight in the hopes of taking advantage of Pascal's wildness and lack of experience on the big stage. There is no conspiracy. It is what it is. Dawson didn't expose anything.

So it stands, Im guessing Hopkins saw some vulnerabilties inthe young lad.

Only on message boards can an underdog get "exposed" in the process of winning a championship.

Your reading comprehension has been found wanting.

Pascal only WON because for some reason Dawson didn't jump on his ass early. He was ready to sleep before the gash on Dawson's head. I believe Hopkins will get an easy victory if he still has some pop in those old bones. But I think Cloud will **** either one of them.

Didnt i make this thread yesterday(or something similar).

That Pascal will take 2 steps to jump in. B-Hop has the best timing in the business, if Dawson would've stayed in the pocket, that uppercut Dawson landed wouldn't have been the first.

And B-Hop knows that if Pascal fights jumping in like that to close the range, he can consistently time counters and if he misses tie him up, so he doesn't get off.
