I understand psychological warfare, i read fighters. I Studie fighters more outside of the ring, and during interviews, just as much as inside of the ring. Believe me when i say this..? Bernard Hopkins knows that he up against it, and he is preparing for the worst. Just let it go guys.... I am not enjoying this anymore, april 28th is going to be a sad day. But i will be honoured to witness a legend leaving, and i hope Bernard Hopkins can go out like a real legend, and not con the fans, and give us a honest fight. It is time to let it go, it is time to prepare yourself for these last days. The only thing consistent in life is change.
You also started the psychological warfare but now that we acknowledge your VIP status around here, you're tryin to make us fade with that annoyin "let it go" and now you are into global philosophy. For Chrissake, I feel sorry 4 u specially cause I am not gonna go make u it crow Sunday morning but... Primadonna, you haven't heard anything from Nard for days!!!
The bottom line and the key point that keeps being overlooked is that as it stands today, Dawson is simply the better fighter...come Saturday night this will be shown and you guys can come in and say "well I hope he could beat Bernard he's 47" or "Bernard wasn't his best" or whatever concession/excuse you can come up with, and pat each other on the back and tell each other that you aren't really ******ed you just "got this one wrong", when the reality is there is no reason why anyone with any real understanding of boxing would think Bernard wins this fight. He loses because he's not as good as Dawson, period.
A bit silly really, if Hopkins loses it's because Dawson was the better fighter on the night (and probably at this point in their careers) doesn't mean that Dawson is a better fighter then Hopkins all things considered. Also the fact Hopkins has always managed to pull out his best performances when being the heavy underdog should be a warning to people of 'real boxing understanding' maybe that's why people think Hopkins has a chance.
werent you the one who said that hopkins was going to pull out of the fight, presumably because thats what dawson said he was going to do? that **** was funny. dawson may very well win but by ko/tko/total domination? that shits funny, too. the chances of hopkins getting old overnight in this fight is slim. just as slim as dawson winning by tko/ko/total domination.
Do you honestly believe Hopkins losing tomorrow will determine Chad as the better fighter overall? You think Chad is more skilled and effective in a boxing ring?
Just watched the tape again. I keep hearing all this talk about how Dawson was being the more aggressive of the two but he wasn't. I don't see how people think Dawson was controlling anything in the two rounds they fought. Hopkins was frustrating Dawson and that's why Dawson came unglued and pulled that sloppy ass shoulder charge. Dawson is a ****ing punk, and tomorrow Hopkins will paddle that ass.
You gotta realize your talking a to a Jermaine Taylor fan bogotazo, he believes that Hopkins got dominated in both fights, if you look at the scorecards he had, which was ridiculous. This kid is very bias, so you can't ask him questions like that.
Hopkins already said that Ward is the next guy to be the best, not Dawson. Dawson never gonna fight Ward cause he is going to lose to Hopkins and the rest is gonna be like the Pavliks and the Taylors. Period and fly away from me.

He comes with this line every single night but he will have to come up with something different to make that loss disappear fast, maybe the let it go will work too...
