Hopkins would make Chad Dawson look amateur just like what he did to Pavlik....

    He didn't have a plan against Taylor and Taylor was sometimes outboxing him. You underestimate Dawson's skills, he just doesn't throw flurries, he has very good natural boxing ability too, with good ring intelligence. I see Dawson winning based on counterpunching and volume. Dawson isn't like Pavlik where he's slow and allowed Hopkins to "think". I do agree with you that Dawson is inactive after he's done throwing flurries but because of Hopkins age he won't be able to take advantage of that. A much younger Hopkins yes, but not the 44 year old Hopkins. I see Dawson embarrassing Hopkins. When he fought Calzaghe and Pavlik you can imagine Hopkins winning, but against Dawson there will be NOTHING that Hopkins can do.
