    You couldnt answer the question then :hi:. Dont post on my excellent threads again, until you can act like a man. I cant stand these people that make accusations then hide when there is no truth in them

    With the fact that Dawson has gone down 3 times that I know of and was nearly KOd by glorified journeyman G Johnson in a fight many thought Dawson lost, I wouldnt be greatly shocked if Dawson was knocked down or KOd, but cant at this time really picture either happening

    First of all, Hopkins is contractually bound to fight Chad.
    Nobody is happy it's on PPV. I'm looking more forward to it from
    Chad's perspective. He seems to lack serious motivation. But he's always wanted this fight so it'll be interesting to see if he can rise to
    the occasion and reenergize his career.

    No disrespect but that's gonna be an atrocious fight to watch. Dawson is a boring ass fighter and Bhop against a counter puncher will not look as good as he did in his last couple of fights.

    Interestingly the majority feel this is a good fight and that Hopkins is not shot

    The problem with your logic bailey is that Bhop beat Joe and at best was a draw or in your world at least a close fight. If that is the case according to your logic that would make Strum better than or at least equal to Joe.

    Personally I am not a fan of any of them so I do not give a crap!

    you need to understand that hopkins is the one that regained his title and is getting these wins, not joe. joe doesn't become greater with every bhop win. let's see joe comeback at 46 and get a win over the recognized light heavy champ.

    btw, the hopkins-dawson fight is going to be a stinker like most of bhop's fights. dawson will probably outwork him but he's looked like crap his past couple. can't believe this is on ppv.

    Hopkins - Dawson?

    Boring.. I don't know of anyone who wants to see this.

    Dawson should pull himself together and go to CW and met Cunningham and Tarver (I think he as a very good chance against both) and then to HW (he is better than most HWs too).

    Instead of pretending to be a starving LHW which he is not naturally.

    :patsch You think Hopkins-Dawson is too boring a proposition, yet you suggest Dawson-Tarver III instead...


    Typical JoeAverage stupidity.

    (Hopkins doesnt fight Dawson) Reaction on ESB: "Old man river is ducking Dawson, Cleverly is the true LHW champ"

    (Hopkins fights Dawson) Reaction by ESB: "Who wants to see this fight anyway?"

    Hopkins is doing boxing a favour and fighting the guy who has been after him for a while. The fight will probably flop on PPV but its good for us boxing fans to see how a big, two handed fighter like Dawson can perform against Hopkins. This is why I want to see the fight

    Real boxing fans want to see the legend that is Bernard Hopkins keep defying the odds and top off his already stellar resume. Chad Dawson regardless of the loss to Pascal is very talented. Hopkins razor thin UD or SD
