    Wow this one yrs ago would of been a huge fight. Diaconu very much overrated. Should still be a good fight tho.

    Nice card HBO has here. I think Hopkins beats Pascal but I'm not sure the fight will be as good as last time. I think Dawson has to look to make a statement against Diaconu who is made to order for Dawson. If Dawson comes out to impress he may stop Diaconu. If he doesn't he wins a decision.

    I expect Dawson to make a big statement.
    Dawson under 6.


    (but this is the last time i put hope on this guy. If he doesn't deliver there, i'm done with him)

    Dawson absolutely has to shine. He's been a disaster so far for HBO. Lots of investment, little in return. And I say this as a Dawson fan.

    Really good card. Perfect fight for Dawson, last chance at world level for Diaconu, and the rematch of an interesting fight.

    Dawson will destroy Diaconu's limited slow ass. 11rds to 1 or 12rds to 0 for Dawson, doubt we'll see a stoppage though but that would be impressive since the harder hitting Pascal couldn't do it in 2 tries.

    Dawson - Diaconu will be an interesting match up. Diaconu is a tough guy that keeps going forward and will try to fight from the inside. His left is vicious. How will the more skilled Dawson respond? Dawson has to show he is good because Pascal beat Diaconnu with only one arm: his left...
