    Dawson is going to throw lots of punches, he will land lots of punches, and if he goes up to second gear, he will eventually get Hopkins out of there.

    Keep dreaming, buddy. Cracks me up how much faith people have in somebody like Chad Dawson, a guy who wouldn't have done jack **** in better light heavyweight eras and is clearly benefiting from a weak division and the need for people to hype fighters up.

    Why do idiots like you always try to compare eras? Dawson's career is no one where near finished, and he would be favored or very competitive against anyone in the LHW or SMW division.

    Criticize him all you want, but he is a very talented and skilled boxer. But first things first, he needs to shut up all the Hopkins nuthuggers on Oct 15.

    Yeah right, Dawson is training to stink out the arena. What a borefest this one should be.

    I will be in the extreme minority when I confidently predict a Dawson decision...

    That's actually the most likely occurrence according the betting odds.

    Hopkins is slow, Dawson has very fast hands who's also very skilled, unlike Pascal.

    It will look something like this.

    I think the probability is pretty high for Dawson to knock out Hopkins.

    This is the probbale outcome of the fight, but I don't see a knockout. Bernard has a very good defense.

    Dawson also promised to do that againt Diaconu and I honestly didn't see any difference in his game. He will be training for several more months with Steward but I don't think he can change his soul. Dawson is not a warrior, he'll never be.

    I can see Dawson win though but I can also see Hopkins win with his ting and brain IQ. Dawson is not the most intelligent boxer in the game. That's scary against Hopkins but in theory he should have all the tools to win.
