Bernard will issue out a Tarver-like (not as one sided) beat down on Chad...

I like Chad but Steward said it right, he fights in spots and seems to lose interest at times and we all know about his workrate...he's gonna have to make major adjustments to beat Bernard...and I don't see it happening out of the blue.....but crazier things have happened...

Chad does have the style/skills to beat Bernard but I question his mental and focus...

The criticism against Dawson is legit, but I still think some fans overestimate Hopkins abilities. Pascal, Jones, and Pavlik are nothing like Dawson (and Dawson is very motivated for this fight). Hopkins is going to get another another L on his record, just like that L he got in 2008 against Calzaghe.

Dawson is too suspect in the ring for me to put full confidence in him. The only way to beat Bernard is to use speed consistently. Dawson stops and gives his opponents time to get back in the fight. Can't let Hopkins get in any comfortable rhythm. I'm going with Bernard Hopkins in this one. 12RD UD in favor of POPkins.

Is that our very own John “Ice Man” Scully training Dawson? Did he ever make a thread here talking about this?
