    Would love to see another classic Hopkins performance, but I think Dawson wins it here. I hate picking against Hopkins. He proved me wrong against Trinidad, Tarver & Pascal x2. If Dawson's focused he wins this

    Mars - what up with a Friday Night Thread? I'll be on, man. My favorite light heavyweight, Sillakh is fighting an undefeated Russian that I've seen before, and isn't half bad. Plus, we have the South African Super Middleweight on Showbox.

    It feels like this could finally be the night Hopkins bit off more than he can chew and will show his age.

    BUT I thought that about the FIRST Pascal fight.

    So I see this one going similar with Dawson coming on early and giving us Hopkins fans a scare, then Bernard lulling him into Bernard's type of fight and coming on strong during the middle and late rounds.

    By the end Dawson will be tired and so will Bernard, but Dawson will be showing it more and look the loser.

    Could go a lot like the 1st Taylor fight, in which case the judges may very well fuck Bernard again.

    God I hope they don't.

    HBO should have done a Face Off with these two. Probably would have rivaled the Pascal one.

    Hopkins looking his age at the weigh in. More greys and losing more muscle mass every fight. I do think Dawson will dominate and win a wide decision.

    Damn.

    I got the feeling that Hopkins may have one more hall of fame performance in him. One more turn-back-the-clock performance. In the weekly prediction contest, I picked Dawson, but I got the feeling Hopkins may take this. I can't decide.

    Yeah I would like to see BHOP beat Dawson but I just got that bad feeling. The 1 thing I think might work in Hopkins favor is the temper of Dawson in which Hopkins seems to bring out in him. Maybe Hopkins by DQ win.

    I believe Dawson will be bringing it the entire fight (for a change), knocking Hopkins down a time or 2 but not stopping him on his way to a pretty clearcut UD. Hop will whine and bitch, say he was robbed, and so will some of his fans, but that's to be expected. I bet if you asked Hopkins, he'd tell you that he's never lost a fight, except perhaps the one with RJJ.

    I'd bet that this one ends in some sort of a controversy, like for example, a close hard to score fight that each pug thinks they won or some low blows, head butting et al. Hop will use every dirty trick in the book to try and piss Chad off, and get a decision.

    I'd actually never seen that one before, damn Hopkins is a gangster.
