    Am I the only one who thinks Dawson will beat Hopkins?

    A lot of people have written Chad off after the loss to Pascal but I just think Chad wasn't focused and had a bad night. If Chad is motivated he should beat Hopkins. Chad has good enough boxing skills to out box B-Hop. All Chad needs to do is be aggressive. To me this fight is all about Chad, if he wants it bad enough he will beat Hopkins.

    Obviously not. Hopkins is just a tad under a 2-1 underdog.

      Dawson is kinda overrated because he is american, a good looking champ, HAD an undefeated record who ppl drooled over...ect


      he got beat by glen johnson, destroyed by pascal, and now is fighting the guy that destroyed pascal


      Hopkins is mentally stronger and smarter, that goes a long way in the boxing ring

        Wow I can't believe that B-Hop is the under dog, but I was referring to the posters on the forum. From what I've seen, a lot of people one here act like a B-Hop win is a forgone conclusion.

            Dawson didn't get destroyed by Pascal, did you see the fight? I agree with your last point, this fight is all about Dawson's mental state of mind he has all the physical tools to beat Hopkins.

              From the threads I've seen a lot of people are picking chad and I think most everyone agrees it should be a tough/close fight. There are a few that say hopkins or dawson will easily win but I think those are just fanboys or haters.

              As a big hopkins fan I think it's a 50/50 fight. Just depends on what hopkins has left and what kind of motivation chad has going into the fight.

                Agreed, I think it could go either way too. Good post.

                  Hopkins has been dodging this fight for mad long, Chad is a southpaw with speed and power and Hopkins ain't as fast as he used to be. Also I don't think Hopkins has the power to keep Chad off him. But this fight is all about what Chad wants to do

                    that's the thing though, dawson isn't a come forward pressure fighter. If anyone is pressing the action I'm guessing it will be b-hop.
