    Ive gotta agree with this one. Plus Dawson has a tendency to just give away a couple middle rounds for no apparent reason.

    As much as I hated RJJ in his prime, I'd have to say he would've beaten Dawson fairly easy. Hell, I'd give the Montell Griffin that fought Roy the first time around a good chance to beat Dawson. Griffin did alot better than alot of Roy's opponents at that time.

    If we're talking prime RJJ, then KO 4, tops.

    And I like Bad Chad.

    I don't think Dawson would win because he doesn't have the defense to beat Roy at his prime, but he would be a good fight. I think alot of people are underrating Dawson at this time thinking he hasn't beaten the best(saying Tarver and Johnson are over the hill.) But at least he tries to fight the best, Adamek for example. I think if he can beat Pascal he'll be the top LHW for awhile, rather B-Hop's there or not.

    If Dawson tries to fight, he gets knocked out. If he retreats, he loses just about every round.

    Apparently winning a hard fought decision is "getting your ass kicked."
