    I would expect this from a Jermain Taylor fan.

    Expect Dawson to stay behind the jab, pumping it out at least 30 times each round. . . Being very cautious, staying on the back foot, but pressing forward gradually. . . Expect him to keep a high work-rate: 60+ punches a round.

    THere might be a a total of 5 sweet "war-like" exchanges in this fight. . Appreciate it, cause it's some of the alst of Hopkins we'll see, but don't count on being on the edge of your seat.

    I would like to see Hopkins take this. I give the early rounds to Chad though. Hopkins will have to figure out how to get around that jab and where the openings are. The late rounds are where Hopkins will likely take over, and Chad may start to fold. But, I am not sure Hopkins will win enough of those to get the decision. This has always been, if nothing else, an intriguing match-up. Looking forward to it.
