    Says "Dawson who? I'm not looking at Dawson, I'm looking at Calzaghe and I believe Joe WILL change his mind about a rematch". As for Dawson, his time may come in the future, but I'm not interested."

    Comments?

    You can't just fight every young lion that comes down the pipe when you only have a few fights left in you. He wants big names, big money and then he's gone...

    When quoting insert a link.

    Otherwise you should be called JoeWayBelowAverage if it's a reference to your IQ.

    i'm pretty sure that hopkins said this before calzaghe vs jones, now things have changed. hopkins was only interested in jones if he won, and calzaghe doesn't want no part of hopkins. Dawson is an option, but so is the winner of taylor vs lacy, and if these fights don't come off then he can go and emabarass kessler.

    It was Hopkins who said Dawson was the future of the light-Heavyweight division.

    Weak on Bernard's part if the quote is true.

    Same thing I said when I heard Kessler's team wants to duck Dawson.

    Mate, you have said Joe and Hopkins have rejected a fight with Dawson in the last 24 hours, all on the basis of some quote with no source.

    Even if he did say that, its not rejecting a fight is it, Dawson has no offer presented, therefore Hopkins aint rejecting a fight.

    To be honest I think your making this **** up completely.

    i will go along with that for 1 im a dawson fan but he had other plans than diaconu in tarver. but some say he ducked him i wont say either way just a fight must happen.kessler wanting to stay at his weight class and unify why hate on him.there is some promise undefeated fighters coming up in that weight class. for hopkins i dont know who out ther for him if cal wont rematch him but hey i wont argue if he fought taylor to rid his 2 loses.especially if taylor impresses tonightto me actually i think thats 1 of hopkins plans to clean his record from the loses and then retire. especially if taylor impresses tonight. cal let just let him retire if come back so be it. thought dawson may be the biggest if not rematching hopkins roy or kessler but i dont really care either way. he hasnt made up his mind yet but last was retirement. now if come back and fight tarver i might have something to say. johnson though i thought lost to dawson i wont argue fighting cal neither. good matchup great test. but will it be such a high reward? for dawson i want him to fight his mandatories and try t owork on unfying.
