    IT was a good fight though. Tarver tried, Dawson came with it, when they decided to throw punches and not play "You hit me then stop while I hit you" with one another it was an entertaining fight

    I've sat through and done R-B-R for 24 rounds of Chad Dawson-Antonio Tarver...that's...21 more rounds than the average human being should be watching. :lol::lol::lol:

    Chad Dawson should not be in front of a live mic...ever.

    with a "fight" like that in front of you, kinda hard
    to stay focused. i actually thought it was an okay
    fight. chads just too young, strong, fast for the old
    guy. tarver just cant hang anymore.

    Not a bad fight, Tarver deserves respect, he came in this fight performing far better than the first fight and throwing all the way till the end. It was Dawson who had to take some rounds off rather than the older Tarver. Good fight from Dawson, looking forward to more.

    Dawson needs to fight a few hungrier young fighters, even though he will have the skill advantage, he needs someone who can make him work for it and start fighting at least 2 minutes in every round.

    KEllerman called this a dominant performance, but it wasn't one

    Bring on Dawson vs Kessler, Johnson, or Hopkins

    The Austrians are awesome in general: Menger, Mises, Hayek, et al. I'm glad you picked up on it.

    Why?, they usually do that when a non PPV fight follows a big PPV event.

    Chad Dawson says whoever it is next, bring em in. Works hard, believes in his skills, whatever happens he's ready.

    2 wins over Tarver, win over Adamek, win over Johnson...that's a good resume for a still developing LHW.

    Definitely not a dominant performance, Dawson seemed to struggle in this one.

    UD for Dawson. Again

    ****ing pointless rematch. 116-112, 117-111

    Dawson seems unsure of how he did. He knows he didnt impress like he could. Saying he has to see tape to see how he did

    Kellerman asking about a Johnson rematch, Dawson saying he will fight against whoever, doesnt say Johnsons name.

    Kellerman now asking about him not being as strong in the 2nd half fight as he is in the first half of the fight

    Dawson saying he has to watch tape, see what can be improved
