    I have his career set and I must say this guy does it all on offense and has the best handspeed of any fighter from 160 and above, there's a reason why Mikkel Kessler is'nt trying to see Bad Chad Dawson and it's because Kessler would get sonned if he did face Dawson who has a solid resume of world class fighters.

    And nobody right now has a better double/triple jab than Bad Chad Dawson, we should cherish the fact that we have a legend in the making in Bad Chad Dawson.

    The Ring LHW championship is vacant. The winner between Dawson/Hopkins would get that belt. :hey

    Far from the truth, sure he roughed him up... but watch the fight objectively , Johnson clearly was outboxed the majority of the time.. He just kept the pressure on him.

    Shaky chin, leaky defense, zero adaptability.

    Past prime Hopkins and Calzaghe would run rings around him. ****ing hell the Road Warrior nearly did !

    Mysteriously BHop chases everyone but is none too anxious to get in the ring with Chad
    I dont buy the injury bit or any other nonsense this guy beat Adameks ass and made him leave the LIGHT hEAVYS. People avoid this little fact always.

    good call:good

    definately p4p material, even mayweather jr said in a interview that he was the most talented fighter in the world ( after he retired obviously).

    kessler dont want nothin to do with him, and the so called ring lhw champ retired in fear of losing his O to him

    I watched Dawson/Tarver again LIT early one morning BUGGED THE **** OUT on some of the combos that Dawson was unleashing. Nevermind the target, it would have been breathtaking on a drunk in an alley somewhere. Dawson is a trip. True. :yep

    For one thing, he is lacking some power to be considered offensively complete. Then, there's the adaptability and decision-making. He's lacking in those somewhat.

    Well, you can give it to him about six months earlier I suppose when he won the NABF over Harding. Either way. At this point (by mid-2006 to early-2007), he was superior to the paper title holders: Adamek, Woods, Tiozzo/Branco/Drews, & Erdei. He was also superior to the old, old versions of the division's prior elites: Johnson, Tarver, RJJ, & Hopkins (mentioned only due to winning his one-off over Tarver).
