    One thing is for certain, Hopkins is the much smarter Fighter and the Ring General, who dictates how the fight will go (As in, who will be the aggressor, who will be the Cute Boxer. )

      Dawson win's the early rounds, mid rounds the fight get's competitive but Dawson takes the championship rounds due to his youth.

      I can see Dawson knocking down Hopkins tbh, Dawson straight left is quite deceptive in terms of power.

        Dawson's only chance to win is by being more active...but being more active will give Bernard more opportunities...

        I think whoever controls the pace will win...and I can't see Chad doing that effectively for a long time...he does have the skills to do it though...

        I don't like how Chad backs straight up either when someone comes at him...and I know Bernard is studying Chad heavily...

        Unless Father Time hits, I think Bernard will pull out a clear but competitive decision...I don't think the fight will be exciting but will have moments...

          round 1 starts and both fighters look tentative. they both throw out some feelers but nothing clean lands. hopkins circles around the ring and then all of a sudden he rushes in with a headbutt attempt but dawson catches him with a titanic right hand and hopkins is convulsing on the floor like an infantile ******.

            You put a billion on B-Hop with me if you want.

            Hopkins will probably pull through this one

              That would be funny if that happened.

                I hope Hopkins knocks that kid out in the early rounds. With a counter right hand on a straight left. That'd be cool.

                  I think Dawson dominates by either UD or knocks hims out. Hopkins is going to get hit more often than he usually isn't.

                    He wasn't the ring general against Taylor, and Taylor doesn't have the best ring IQ. He's 46 years old he has his limits.
