Hopkins vs. Dawson on HBO PPV Oct 15th (Offical Sat Night chat thread)

[Rantcatrat]

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

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.
