      I actually hope it is on PPV. If it is not that means HBO is wasting their money on this.

        This. Seriously I don't get why so many people are actually excited for this fight. I know we have Bhop fans, but Dawson? The guy could put a doped up bum on Speed and Coke to sleep with his boring ass fights. They should be paying me to watch this ****.

          Hopkins fighting a good skilled fighter his own size and hungry, last time this happened Taylor beat him. Ud for Dawson, though i wouldn't be surprised if he tried to fight dirty like he did against Keith Holmes. Advice for Dawson look at his fight with Keith Holmes, this was Hopkins last dirty fight (could of been a differnt outcome against Holmes).

            Not true. Hopkins' contract with HBO (part of a three fight deal) requires them to pay him. HBO can "flip" the event to PPV and try to earn back their money, but with looking at how the first fight did, there's no chance they would get that money back.

              I honestly didn't think Hopkins would take this fight considering how much trouble he looked like he would have with Dawson for the duration of the first fight so credit to him for taking it. I have a feeling Dawson will win a stinker.

                    In a round and a half? Hopkins was down against Pascal in the first two rounds too and Dawson barely landed a significant punch. Hopkins approached the fight like he has all of his fights past 40.

                      Even though Hopkins was down against Pascal in their first fight in the first two rounds I thought he looked more comfortable against Pascal than he did against Dawson, just by looking at his body language I thought he was realizing he was going to have a tough, tough time against Dawson. But I might be wrong.
