• HBO Ring Life: Bernard Hopkins – October 11th, 2011

  On Saturday, Oct. 15 at the Staples Center in L.A., Hopkins (52-5-2, 32 KOs) defends his WBC light heavyweight title against 29-year-old “Bad” Chad Dawson (30-1-, 17 KOs).

That’s pretty much what everyone else does. But Hopkins isn’t everyone else...

• Bernard Hopkins vs. Chad Dawson – October 16th, 2011

  Bernard Hopkins vs. Chad Dawson didn't live up to expectations, even when the expectations were low.
