    I want to see him fight kessler and Jermain Taylor.. 2 young lions who can give him a good fight. Even tho both are smaller than him these 2 are the fights i want for dawson. :D

    Kessler has never said he doesnt want Froch. He has said just the opposite - that he would fight Froch.

    He has said that he would fight Dawson at 168.

    However, I don't think Dawson is very high on the list. Dawson is an inkown fighter outside of the US and will do nothing for Kessler. Kessler is recognized as the #1 at SMW, while Dawson is somewhere around #3-5 at HW. That fight, win or loose does nothing for Kessler except in the heads of a few hardcore Dawson fans' heads.

    There is noone really at LHW. Dawson says he could make 168 and fight Taylor, Kessler etc. but realistically I don't think he can.. so that leaves:

    Diaconu ... and that other newcomer (forgot his name), rematches with old Tarver .. and .. thats it. Nothing really - too bad. Well, Hopkins and Joe, but they wont even look at Chad.

    Chad's the man. I wouldn't mind seeing him fight Tarver a third time after the rematch just so we don't leave any doubt who the better fighter is. Plus, it would be a smart financial move with HBO behind it and all, so you can't argue with that. It's not Chad's fault that he's so Bad, nobody wants to fight him.

    Yeah. and I think just a fourth fight to make sure the three first ones were not flukes. Looking forward to that so badly. I've already bought a tent so I can stand outside to wait for the ticket office to open ticket sales for Dawson-Tarver XI in 2016. I'm shaking all over thinking about the excitement.:happy
