    Dawson has issued a statement calling Bernard out. Check out the scene. Says Bernard has nowhere to hide. Make the fight!!

    Bernard doesn't wanna see someone like Chad at this stage of his career, Dawson has all the tools hopkins struggles with apart from the workrate, no way hopkins will take dawson just a bad match up even for a prime Bernard. Plus it's alotta risk for little reward.

    he doesn't really have that many options when you take dawson outta the equation due mainly to the lack of big names at LHW (hence why he picked the jones fight) the best option is Adamek, good moolah and almost a certain W, he just needs to throw Tomas a little more chedder.

    Adamek ... Hopkins can't beat Haye, surely?
     
  5. I still want to see Hopkins-RJJ II, sue me.

    Then I honestly want to see B-Hop retire having a crack at the Heavyweight Title, if the crazy ole ******* wants to do it, let him do it.



    Lets be honest, as far as a Hopkins-Roy rematch goes, what would have been more damaging last night, his KO, or an absolute 12 round drubbing?

    :lol: I saw a pic of him the other day at the Orneleas presser and he actually looks old (for a boxer) now! Modern day legend- enjoy him while he's here, everyone:good.

    Also, IMO, RJJ getting sparked in the first round was more damaging to the prospect of B-Hop-RJJ II than a drubbing over 12. If he was beaten down over 12 he could have said he wasn't comfortable at cruiser or some crap. Now, let's face it, the promotion for B-Hop-RJJ II is pretty much ****ed before it got going. It can't be sold and I doubt many would want to watch it now either.

    I think Dawson is the only fight available that would really mean something to Bernards legacy.

    He should forget about the heavyweight title unless John 'the quiet man' Ruiz secures an unlikely win over Haye.

    Would hate to see him hurt at this stage of his career.
