Is Hopkins ducking Chad Dawson? What do you guys think?

Obviously--he wants none of dawson. Mosley is a bigger 'ducker' at the moment...i think its crap how hes waiting for hatton or pacman and ducking others like he has before

 

Hopkins is clearly picking his spots. I can't blame him though, he is 90 years old, FFS.

 

Dawson: 6'3", great conditioning, workrate, high volume puncher. Yes, Hopkins is 'avoiding' Dawson. Even at his best, Hopkins had problems with fast, high volume punchers. I'm sure Calzaghe showed him that he's not at a point where he can overcome that advantage short of knocking the other guy out.

 

He is, he knows Dawson would beat him so he's picking easier opponents.
I know it's the smart thing to do considering his age, but I don't get why people don't see it, he's clearly ducking Dawson.

 

This.

 

he prefers only white opponents now

 

If you are referring to Paul Williams, name me a welterweight who has come out publicly and said they want any of him. At least Shane is being honest.

Who else is he ducking? Don't say Floyd.

 

edit

 

He duckin' !

 

Yep, Calzaghe knew that Dawson would beat him too. That's why he ducked him ran into retirement.

 

Yeah he saw the Glen Johnson fight and was quaking in his boots ! :rofl:rofl:rofl

 

Let's be honest here, Hopkins and Calzaghe are terrified of Dawson. They **** their pants simultaneously.

 

How the **** can Hopkins possibly be accused of ducking at this point in his career?

 

I agree. I would like Froch schooled by Hopkins.

 

Of course Hopkins is ducking Dawson!

The same Hopkins who said he has 'bigger fish to fry than Dawson'... then goes after the same Tomaz Adamek who was clearly beaten by Chad Dawson! HBO have already said they interested in Dawson-Hopkins.... the irony is I think Hopkins would have a great chance of winning!

Apparentley he's going after Froch now... after the Boxing lesson he was given by Taylor until the great last minuet KO. of course.... I wonder why?
