    What is your prediction for the April 28th Dawson-Hopkins fight?

    When Bernard Hopkins once again finds he's not competitive with a prime opponent his own size, namely Chad Dawson, will he pretend he's been fouled and quit?

    No, but he will lose decisively.

    Because of his inflated ego, Hopkins feels he can beat Dawson until he gets into the ring.

    However, as B-Hop's fragile false pride starts to hurt too much while he's getting outclassed by Chad, he'll want to quit.

    Then, because of his lack of honor and sportsmanship, Hopkins will pretend he's been fouled and injured, rather than just retire on his stool.

    Dawson drops Hopkins in the 1st round, Hopkins gets up and manages to drop Dawson too in the 1st then Hopkins bore his way to a wide UD.

    117-110 or something for B-Hop

    Nazim said something that i actually agree with. Everybody was talking about how Chad was handling Bernard in the first one. But if you look at the Pascal fight we saw something similar. BHOP quickly figured him out though and took over the fight. He could well do the same with Dawson

    Who said "I'd never let a white boy beat me!"

    Is B-Hop a "racist piece of ****"?

    If Hopkins feels he can make it to the finish line he may gut it out.

    But I'll say this much, Hopkins will quit before it gets to the point Dawson is in the process of beating him down.



    Paw with the jab, paw with the jab, lunge himself head first with a right hand and go for the clinch.
    That will basically be the Hopkins plan vs Dawson. There will be no
    plan B.

    Plan B will be to quit, bank on it!:deal
