Times have changed since then, Johnson has only got cagier in his old age and at that point Hopkins will have at least 18 months of ring rust to shake. I don't discount Johnson's chances in either fight.

Oh, I agree, I just mean in terms of Hopkins legacy it does nothing for him to beat Johnson again when he already holds a KO win over him.
Re: Hopkins wants the winner of Dawson - Johnson
Hopkins is an idiot for not making Adamek. It is a winnable fight and has little risk cause he would be moving up in weight. High reward and low risk.........Dawson is less reward.....I think Hopkins will either beat Dawson or lose a stinker in controverssial fashion ala taylor.......
Popkins needs to wipe the golden boyz jiz out of his eyes and be realistic in his demands.......

Hopkins has a great chance against anybody.
I actually think Hopkins would beat Dawson with his ring smarts, counter punching ability and his dirty inside work.
That doesn't mean i don't think Dawson can win though, He will certainly cause Hopkins problems with his size, speed and workrate.
