Hop may as well either retire or make the most meaningful fight he can at lightheavyweight, against Dawson. That wouldn't be a great legacy type fight on paper, but if he can show up and take out a young up and coming fighter at LHW there really is nothing more he can do.
I think if Roy Jones wins his next fight we could see a Hopkins v Jones rematch. Or Bhop could fight the winner of Pavlik v Taylor. Id rather see that than him fight Dawson.
Hopkins vs Pavlik would be intruiging.. I have 0 interest in seeing Hopkins and Taylor in the same ring together again though, although I could just hope that if it's at 168 Hopkins could let his hands go more often and KO that fag .. Hopkins vs Jones doesn't do a lot for me either, though I would watch it for sure, I just don't think Roy has enough left to put up a good fight against a real elite fighter who isn't going to let him get away with his rope a dope BS.
