    If hopkins was to lose to him where he knows he loss, he would admit it. He admitted it when he loss to Roy Jones and you also gotta look at the fact he's near the end of his career(but he can still fight). I'm just wondering what Dawson is gonna say if he loses, I don't think he would be very happy. Dawson to me seems like he has a lot of dislike of Hopkins, and maybe that's because he feels Hopkins is being greedy by not letting the youngsters like himself shine. I also believe Winky Wright planted a seed in Dawson's head because Hopkins ruined him after they fought, he gave Wright his first legit loss in 13yrs. and wright hasn't been the same since.

    Again, right on the spot, Canibus. Winky has been the mentor of this mentally lower under average Chad Dawson who is convincing himself and his followers that this is a toss up fight so that he can perform at his best by diminuishing his opponent's chances for this and that reason that are in resume, surreal. Gary Shaw must be spending sleepless nights as he is possibly about to lose yet another gold mine and Scully definitely wouldn't like to be fired like Eddie Mustafa Muhammad didn't but that's just the way things are when you let your vocals get unrolled faster than the speed of your thought.

    It's kind of funny you didn't bring up the fact that Chad Dawson tried to slam Jean Pascal in their fight, which I just found in another thread.:think Seems like your trying to hide Dawson's bad points.:patsch Hopefully he won't try and hit Hopkins when he's defenseless on a break like Antwone Echols did in the rematch.

    Teddy Atlas, the man that used to give a shoulder to maniac depressive Tyson b4 fights and b4 he slaughtered opponents in less than 3 min. Teddy Atlas who yelled at a shocked public including Michael Moorer in his first fight with Evander Holyfield " He's gonna lose his next fight and you gonna cry afterwards, Michael, don't try to run away from yourself or else, don't come back to this ****IN corner". Teddy Atlas the man who built such a promising HWT in Shannon "The Cannon" Briggs until he got stopped by Wilson. And now, Teddy the commentator who is a master at missing predictions and who gave props to Hopkins at the end of the second Pascal fight live on ESPN sayin that these kids have no sense of distance with another moron interviewer, mixing size with dimensions to say what every Hopkins hater is sayin about the first fight, that is BS! And then no prediction but a contradiction, Pascal didn't know how to use distance or timing like the old school fighters but Dawson knows!!!

    Your upset because Teddy Atlas is pointing out the truth.

    Deal with it, people that are honest with themselves. Know that Hopkins lied about being injured, to get out of the fight. He is a crafty individual, never mind a fighter.

    Whats that other reporter got against Bernard Hopkins..? Nothing.

    He simply called Bernard Hopkins actions against Dawson, as he saw it.

    Keywords used by Teddy Atlas: Crafty, Con man.

    Are you dum..?

    Bernard Hopkins used his head, and holds allot and pushes guys around. I love rough house tactics..? are you dum or something..? I have no problem with rough house tactics..? But i have a problem with when somebody cannot take it..? And only give it.....

    Like Bernard Hopkins.

    Hopkins in recent years shows he cannot take it, time and time again.

    Lets make it a rough house fight..? and i can assure you Hopkins will get out of the fight again.

    Whenever anyone gets rough back with Hopkins, on many occassions he has cried to the ref or put on a acting show, to spoil the whole fight.

    Fact.

    I agree, i am not saying Hopkins is not a good fighter. I am just pointing out who and what he can be, everyone who is honest and street level smart..? knows he is a crafty man, and abit of a con artist, he knows when to act and con to protect himself inside of the ring.

    Mentally..? Hopkins is not the same guy who he is describing that fought Felix Trinidad. You see..? Do you guys really beleave that type of fighter would of lied about being injured..? People need to understand..? Hopkins fans need to understand! Bernard Hopkins does not have to fight anymore, and mentally he knows this........

    Bernard Hopkins is now civilized,just like what Micky...? in Rocky III said to Rocky.

    "Rocky became civilized, and fighters...? fighters...? Cannot become civilized and still be the same kind of machine"

    Hopkins has been done for along time, he changed as a fighter mentally. Which has been more and more evident from his crying and acting inside of the ring..? His own arragonts, not his intelligents..? Will be the end of him.

    Chad Dawson is all wrong for Hopkins.

    I can deal with it. I can deal with Atlas and that other reporter that you say, let's be clear, you say got nothing against Hopkins. People saw this in different ways and Atlas is a guy who sees it in his unique way and spells out whatever he believes in, now I should mention to you that he congratulated Hopkins on that Pascal rematch and said that these youngsters don't have a sense of timing and distance and now he says that the main issue here to make a prediction is that Dawson has reach and height above all and will use it - is Dawson much older or craftier than Pascal, I don't get this Atlas double standard???

    And if that was the case? It means he's just postponing a sure defeat? Is that all that you guys want to point out? Do you know that a guy, no matter how consistent he has been, had to fight three consistent fights against fresher, younger and hungry men in Pascal twice and Chad and that is very difficult to string together at this age? If he did buy time, that has nothing to do with his chances in the upcoming bout, that is the bottom line, he is a puzzle solver and a puzzle maker, that means he will solve yours and you won't be able to solve his, that's the bottom line, forget about age, youth, stregth cause it was never proved that Chad is stronger ( stronger doing what, lifting weights, arm wrestling, lifting up guys?)...
