Bump..
Let's get some discussions going on this fight and the 2 decent undercard fights.
Bump..
Let's get some discussions going on this fight and the 2 decent undercard fights.
The fight of the night is Danny Garcia versus Kendal Holt. Garcia has been moving up in the rankings, but this is his biggest test by far. Each has some pop. It's really a big fight for both guys. Doesn't the winner becomes the mandatory for Soto?
As for the main event, Hopkins could put on a boxing master class or Dawson could pick up where Calzaghe left off and beat Hopkins on volume and speed. Dawson needs to outjab Hopkins to win in my opinion. Hopkins needs to maintain his stamina and fight in spurts to win. It's a tough fight to call. On some days, I see Dawson winning and on others, Hopkins.
On boxnation we have degales european title fight then cleverly v bellew and then the american card
we might get to see more than just the main 2 on the british bill too coz the program is on for about 3 hours
i doubt ill stay up and watch it all but it should be nice none the less
the hopkins card is rammed with names isnt it
Officially the only saddo who has had a girlfriend
Does anyone find it a little odd that Hopkins hasn't talked much trash in the weeks leading up to this fight? He's been more quiet than usual...
I havn't really noticed Rant-cat, but then I try not to listen to much of Hopkins' bullshit. Hop usually hatches a mind game at the weigh-in, which is friday, i'll post a link to it if I can find one.
This might actually turn out to be a good fight, I believe it all depends on what version of Dawson shows up.
Attention Admin:
Could we please get a sticky and make this the fight thread for Saturday?
Thanks in advance.
Going with Dawson by decision. Chads speed and work rate will be the difference; Which is what has given Bhop trouble in the past with the likes of Taylor, Calzaghe and the 1st Jones fight.
I think B Hop is under appreciated, for a fighter to do what he is doing at his age is unbelievable. If he wins then people try to play down the opponent and if he does not do well then they say he should retire. I hope he wins this fight even though he should be beaten by the bigger, taller, younger, hungrier, quicker and fitter challenger.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Hop is amazing and deserves credit for what he's accomplished, the thing is, i've been watching "X" back before he was a middleweight champion, and frankly, i'm a little tired of watching him fight. Having said that, i'm sure i'll be hunting a stream to watch the fight saturday..
I think Hopkins last fight was pretty fun to watch compared to a lot of the other fights he has had. I think he has to fall to pieces at some point i mean the guy is like a thousand years old in boxing years.
Kendall Holt over Danny Garcia. Holt has had a tough go, in and out of the ring but when he is good, he is very good and he does a lot of things I like. He sits down on his punches, he can move or bang. He has good power in both hands. It's also true he has been knocked down more than you would like. Danny Garcia has had a pretty easy path to this point.
Hopefully this turns out to be a good fight.. still don't think it's PPV good though.
I'll go Dawson SD on work rate.
