    People will say Hop was over the hill and Hop would've killed Dawson in his prime.

    I don't know why any young fighter takes fights with Hopkins. If they lose, they're added to Hopkins skull collection. But if they win, Hopkins has the old man excuse.

    Sorry if I come across as a hater, I've just never been a Hopkins fan. I'm not sure if it's his headbutts, low blows or excessive holding. The only time I rooted for him was against Trinidad and Tarver.
    yea thats EXACTLY how you're coming across....but its cool....you have a right to like and hate who you want....its not a crime

      Haha but I'm hating with logic that's actually true. If Hopkins wins, it's a great win. If Hopkins loses, he's over the hill. Is this not true?

        Dawson is a text book boxer and will be alot easier to read his shots and see them coming. Pascal is wild and for four rounds he is dangerous with punches coming in bunches with speed and power from all angles. Hopkins was bound to be tagged early but after that, it was a one sided fight. Pascal aleways starts like a train and finishes like a snail but Dawson will be steady all the way and I wouldnt be surprised if this is another landslide win for Hopkins. Dawsons style is made for him.
        Dawson is far different from your typical text book boxer. For one Dawson has very fast and throws really nice combinations, and two he is a right-handed southpaw. If you think Hopkins can just easily read him and beat Dawson to the punch, then you are clearly underestimating Dawson. Hopkins at his age will have to fight a perfect fight to beat Dawson.
