Given that a lot of casual fans would opt for Hopkins, you have to believe that the bulk of the educated money is on Dawson. Doesn't mean he will win, of course.
If we look only based on styles, dawson should win, hopkins knows it even better than we do since he avoided him for a long while. But now he easily made the fight, I dont think its just on the pascal fight. Dawson ditching Steward helps b-hop, mentally hopkins is miles ahead. Im stuck, I dont want to be naive thinking hopkins beats dawson cause he schooled pascal, but on the other hand its hopkins he might win another epic past 40 fight. Im going with close fight that might go either way or draw, rooting for bernard though.
