    I can see Hopkins landing straight rights on Dawsons face all night long.

    Hopkins is a smart fighter and he probably has watched the Dawson-Pascal fight over and over again. you can spot allot of flaws that Dawson has in that fight

      First of all...I love BHOP, great technical, gritty fighter.

      But my choice will be Chad Dawson - He's younger, faster, and is also very technical. Hopkins may have had his second maybe third or fourth wind...but Chad has been after Hopkins since forever...I think he will get the job done...maybe not in an impressive fashion...maybe he will........but he definitely beats hopkins.

        I say Bhop. Dawson is struggling to figure himself out as a boxer right now, I voted Bhop by UD but I was close to saying BHop by stoppage

          Hopkins seems to be the Fine Wine of boxing.. Getting better with age. i do think Dawson comes in focused and hungry and could upset. But got that feeling that Hopkins takes it.

              Legend on points. I think he will control the pace lull Dawson to sleep then hit him with straight rights and smother his return fire. Ya know the usual As for Dawson he is so up and down you never know which fighter you're going to get but hes not going to KO Hopkins and with his mental lapses I don't see him outpointing Hopkins for a full 12 rds.

                It won't be pretty, and Hopkins will claim he should have won, but Dawson will win a close but clear decision.

                  It's not like Pascal dominated though, most the rounds he won he only won because he was more active. Besides, Hopkins fights nothing like the weird, ****** style Pascal fought against Dawson.

                    It depends which Dawson turns up; but I've got the legend by a late stoppage.

                    If Dawson comes in focused and hungry then he's got a chance but I've got a feeling Hopkins will under his skin & Dawson could struggle.

                    Can't believe he's fired Steward; the dude does really seem to be lost right now. But you do get these fights where most things seem to be against you and the boxer turns in a career defining performance.

                    Well here's Chads chance.
