    Diaconu is a puncher which Dawson and Steward knew, that's why he couldn't just simply bully him around.

      Richard Sh. said they would find loop holes in the contract so they wouldn't have to fight Dawson.

        Another thing that is painfully obvious too is Hopkins gets hit a lot less than Dawson does and has a better defense even while being aggressive. I don't know how anybody can deny the fact that Dawson is hittable.

          What b hop got tagged with **** he would usually never get hit with.

          And nobody denying he isn't hittable. What we saying is Dawson would be all wrong for b hop. Hence the reason he hasn't fought him yet(and he may never fight him).

            Hopkins said after the fight he wants either Bute or Dawson. Since Bute wants to continue fighting in the 168lb division and Dawson is now the WBC mandatory, Hopkins has no other option but to fight Dawson, the fight might happen in September.

              We will see. I don't think it would be boring like people think it would be.

                  Let's be honest...You don't want to see Chad Dawson win, that's why you don't like this fight, right?

                    Bernard beats Chad at this point any day of the week...

                    Chad's handspeed will be taken away by Bernard's movement...

                    Chad has never fought a crafty fighter like Bernard who isn't right there...u gotta go get Bernard Hopkins...

                    Stop comparing Dawson to Taylor...Taylor's workrate is far busier than Chad's and Taylor doesn't back straight up when you bring it to him...

                    I like Chad though and I sort of don't want the fight to happen...Bernard could give him a schooling and possibly ruin him

                      lol Dawson is a much better boxer than Taylor, he's like 3X better than Taylor. Good solid points though, but Dawson will be too quick for Hopkins. Dawson is a different boxer than Pascal, he doesn't wing his punches or leave himself open for straight punches. It doesn't matter how good Bernard moves, Dawson can fight in all angles. And I don't care how good Hopkins defense is, when Dawson is throwing 4-5 punch combinations he goes to the head and body, they will land.

                      Oh and it will be Hopkins who will need to step up his work-rate, and don't worry about Chad's career possibly being ruined, it won't happen.
