Richard Shaefer: We don't want that boring fight(Dawson Fight)

[_original_]

The Dawson fight is long overdue and I think would be more exciting than people think, also see a very tactical war.


Would love to see this fight in Philly.

Screw that overrated Bute, unless Hopkins wants an easy payday and to make the Canadians hate him even more lol

BHop is speaking from the heart about his mother, who died several years ago, about breaking the promise to her to retire at 40.

If they can get Bute I'd go for that first.

Dawson fight will suck for everyone watching.

Dawson-Bhop is a terrible style match up for the fans. Bhop is on a roll, that fight would make him look bad.

I don't rate Chad Dawson at all.

I think Hopkins can beat him.

Of course he don't.

I'm not going to go hard on B-Hop cuz' of his age and what he has accomplish. He's a legend, he doesn't need to prove anything to anybody anymore. But, Dawson is all wrong for him and he knows it. That's why he never wanted to get in the ring against Dawson. That's why when Pascal won he jumped at that opportunity. He will never step in the ring with Dawson.

Dawson isn't as good as he was made out to be and it's showing lately. Hopkins can win this fight even though it looks like his style is wrong for Hopkins and I'm pretty confident that fight is happening next.

I kind of agree with you I think. I see the fight as a chess match that would tarnish Hopkins' newly found image of an entertaining fighter.

[BattleAxePurist]

He's still trying to b**** outta fighting Dawson again who long will he run from this man and people turn the other shoulder??????
Boring, he'll school him or not he's the next in line in the division i guess bhop isn't a LHW champ now he's gotta drop weight all of a sudden.
Really!!!!!

I do too really and handily. It just wouldn't be a big money fight and if Hopkins won it would just be another win over an opponent.

People need to remember that the last time this fight was even discussed HBO only provided three mill for each guy to split down the middle when Hopkins made that very same amount in the Pavlik fight. I don't think Hopkins is scared of Dawson at all. He just doesn't bring anything to the table.

Bute's name always gets thrown around but the dude is fighting Jean Paul Mendy after his previous tune-up for chrissakes...

Bute wants club fighters, not elite professionals.

[Carpe Diem]

Even at 46, he was still able to cutting off the ring better than Pascal did.
