    fighting Nathan Cleverly in Wales would have done very good money, more money than Dawson. Fighting Cloud would have been about the same as fighting Dawson as HBO & Showtime would pay for those fights (Hopkins always has very good ratings on regular HBO/Showtime). Don't act like this was his only fight, which I remind you, doesn't have much public interest.
    So why didnt he do that?

    He wouldn't fight cleverly in wales...lol. Hopkins already said he isn't fighting overseas.....like I said....who could he have fought in the states that would've been more lucrative that dawson

      Hopkins is finally to old to beat someone like Dawson. And look at him, he looked much better in the Pascal-fights, there is no definition anymore on him.
      Hes an old man and it shows. It would really suprise me if Hokins wins this. im sure it will be a boring, dirty fight though. Against Dawon he can only be boring and dirty, he cant do to him what he did with Pascal in the rematch and actually fight and beat him up.
      I care much more about the Mitchell vs. Witherspoon fight, thats the fight on this Card i want to see!

        Both Hopkins & Schaefer have expressed interest in fighting Cleverly in Wales. Additionally Hopkins offered to rematch Calzaghe in Wales so your theory about him not fighting overseas is incorrect.

                Looking forward to tomorrow night...Chad looked all business the first fight and Bernard has kept quiet in this lead up...maybe Bernard's more focused but I'm sure Chad is ready to...


                Not expecting a entertaining fight but it'll be interesting....anything will be better than that last fiasco...

                  Expressing interest is not actually doing.......

                  Hopkins offered calzage a rematch in wales......once again...offering is not doing

                  Actually my theory is correct because Hopkins never made a fight with cleverly or calzage in the uk.....

                  What he did do was rematch Dawson though....In the US
