    Dawson, because he has very good stamina and he would play it safe.

    Dawson would give it to Joe. Hopkins would probably do Joe in in a rematch

    Dawson is a nightmare for Hopkins right now.

    Hopkins on pts. He would find holes in Dawsone and out hustle him to get the win. Dawson doesnt have the type of style to keep the pressure on old Hop, he lazy approach to the Johnson fight doesnt bode well for him.

    Hopkins UD. Boring fight.

    After Hopkins beat Pavlik theres no telling what will happen. Ill go Dawson by SD. I think Hopkins has trouble with fighters with fast hands. Taylor and Joe

    I would go with Dawson, too much speed and good ring craft

    right now without a doubt chad dawson, Dawson moves in and out and is probably one of the fastest p4p fighters out there right now as far as both foot and hand-speed go so for hopkins who couldn't cope with jermain taylors speed who is much slower and more predictable than dawson to fight somebody with the speed and power dawson has is stupid, Hopkins is not stupid I tell you that and theres no way he fights a guy whos young and can fight going forward or backward all night and is anything but one dimensional on top of that would be possibly the toughest fight out there for possibly the least money. It doesn't make any sense for Hopkins to fight Dawson, if he beats him somehow it won't be appreciated as it should because Dawson isn't a marqee name yet amd hasn't hit his absolute best yet as far as experience goes(abillity he's there already) and it would be Hopkins best win but would be discredited in my opinion. Not gonna happen!

    Afet Tarver fight I dont know, he looked average, taking too many rounds off, close fight IMO.

    Dawson's workrate would be the cause of Hopkins's problems, though he could counter him just as effectively as he was doing to Calzaghe early on, and I don't think Dawson has Joe's relentlessness or craftiness. I think Hopkins could pull it off actually.
