    Put a bet on Hop but I feel like it is an even fight. Did Hop destroy Dawson mentally during the build up???

    Dawson on points...I think Bhop has done some nice things in his 40's but given that Chad is a lot younger, and posses some sick boxing skills....I think he outworks and keeps Hopkins on the defensive for the most part...Look for Dawson to use his jab and throw combos to enroute Hopkins to a decision.

    I don't think so, which is why I'm sticking with Dawson to win.

    Chad Dawson. He's got to just let his hands go and be 100% focused.

    Dawson by dominating UD or TKO. The Dawson that we saw we earlier in his career will show up and will be too much for Hopkins to handle.

    Dawson will win a clear, if not onesided decision and will retire Hopkins.

    I am surprised it is so even. A year ago it would have been clear cut for Dawson. Hopkins beating Pascal and Dawson being uninspired in some fights has changed impressions.

    I'm thinking Hopkins by semi close decision 115-113, too much experience. He'll slow Dawson's work rate and beat him with jab, defense, and experience.
