Love him or hate him, you have to admit that the ongoing story of Bernard Hopkins is an impressive one. Even at age 46, he remains one of the best boxers on the planet, a testament to hard work, discipline and mastery of his craft. Sometimes it feels like no one can figure out a way to stop him.
But maybe Chad Dawson can. His personal narrative wouldn't be quite as compelling, but if he wins tonight, it would be a bit of vindication for the talented but quiet boxer who walks his own path.
Still not convinced that's worth parting with your hard-earned money for tonight's HBO pay-per-view? Well then consider the three-fight televised undercard, which should be a lot of fun. Two title fights plus Paulie Malignaggi... that's not too shabby.
If that still doesn't do it for you, we can still keep you in the loop. We'll have live round by round blog posts for all of the fights starting shortly after 9 pm tonight. Yes, that's a separate post for each fight, which you can find out on our main page a few hours from now.
Thank us later. And if you're getting the broadcast or lucky enough to be at the Staples Center, enjoy the fights!
Here are links to the completed fights as they finish:
Paulie Malignaggi UD10 Orlando Lora
