That is pretty impressive.
Also Dawson has faster hands which normally troubles Hopkins. I think Hopkins has a better chance in the Adamek fight.....
I completely agree with that statement, but I'm not sure if beating Adamek is a bigger accomplishment than beating Dawson. Adamek is a legitimate fighter, however. One doesn't beat Banks, Cunningham, Briggs, and Bell without being so.
The Hopkins fight will get him a career high pay day and he naturally fights at a higher weight so it's not like he is risking getting horribly knocked out. On the other hand, he could probably make a ton of money in a fight with Wodarcyzk in Poland. But, the other names in the division don't have the same drawing power.
