Bernard Hopkins Needs To Fight Chad Dawson or Retire

[Fightgame]

Forget Dawson - Hopkins should fight Valuev instead and retire as heavyweight champion of the world.

A 44 year old blown-up middleweight toppling a 7 foot giant with a 50-1 record... not a bad way to call it a career.

[Abstraction]

Hopkins is already a proven legend.

It's some like Calzaghe who has no proven fights, and no real fighters he has gone Prime v Prime with.

I want to see B-Hop Go up to Cruiser and Take on Adamek!! If he beats Adamek and really wants to end his career with a ****... He could challenge the winner of Valuev/Holyfield ll... (Remember Where You Heard It First! 2:30pm PT) hahaha well crazy scenario but id love it.. wut do u think?

What sense does that make? Dawson dominated Adamek. Why would Bernard move up by "25 pounds" to fight the guy Dawson beat.

Maybe Hopkins could do an even better job, at a new weight thus more impressive, and taking yet another belt in another division.

He's not going to be the LHW Champ and #1 whilst he or Calzaghe are active.

But he can be in CW.

Lol the Dawson loonacy is taking on Pavlik proportions already.

i called it i said when Pavlik loses his fans will jump on Dawson.

i agree Calzaghe or Hopkins should take the kid to school. But common what are people seeing in Dawson?

[Sin City]

we all know what happens when Bernard fights men his own size.. he gets wrecked.
He ain't gonna fight Dawson.

[MELLY-MEL...]

bernard does not NEED to fight anyone. and after the beating he gave my boy kelly, he does not NEED to retire either. it's bhop's world!

[Rosseboi]

Providing Hopkins doesn't get too old I can't see Dawson doing anything to win this fight he's too generic his offence is too rigid the man doesn't vary anything Hopkins knows it all and has seen it all.

if this fight comes to pass every left and right hand hook Dawson throws is going to be nullified along with his average jab. Hopkins via Skooling.

Slap in the face???????

How is this writer gonna critisize Bernard Hopkins of all people. A guy who has fought nothing but Top 10 P4P fighters in the last few years.

Tarver at the time - Light-heavy champ and P4P top 10

Winky Wright -- Unbeaten for a decade and Top 3 P4P fighter

Joe Calzaghe - Unbeaten Super-middleweight and Top 5 P4P fighter at the time

Kelly Pavlik - Reigning Middleweight Champion and Top 10 P4P fighter.



**** OUTTA HERE. If he doesn't fight Dawson he has other options at his age, like moving up to heavyweight and fighting Valuev perhaps. After what I saw Holyfield do, I give B-Hop a good chance to win.

He could fight Toney at heavyweight, a long overdue matchup between two ATG's who should've fought at 160/168/175 years ago.

He could move up and fight to win another division title beating any Cruiserweight title holder.

Any of those are fine with me.
