    Struggling 12 rounds with sick old men seems to be a habit with Dawson. What is he going to do when he has to face a hungry young contender? :huh

    Chad Dawson should slap himself for ever calling out Joe Calzaghe

    What contender? He's fighting in a dead division right now. Hopkins doesn't want to fight for less than 5 million, and after that dreadful
    event, no way no how is joe even thinking about unretiring. The only
    way dawson earns a 7 figure pay-day is to go campaign at 168. A fight
    with him and froch would be the biggest event in either division i'm sorry
    to say.

    Hopkins would definitely take Dawson to school.

    You know what? I had Dawson winning a UD against Hops before tonight. I change my pick.

    I think he looked pretty good to me, I think anyone would struggle to deal with him. Tarver has a very good defense and Dawson exercised a very good defense also. I take it your a casual fan of the sport, only focusing on negatives.

    What the **** would Calzaghe do?? Tarver got a punch to look out for... Dawson had to fight cautious. What Calzaghe got....he could not even put Roy down.... ****ing clueless euro whores.

    I think he did aight tonight. He needs to just let his hands go more. Nobody to fight though, so hes gonna keep racking up wins.

    If Hopkins really thought that, he would have already called out Dawson.

    I've seen as many people at a state amatuer tourney. Who promoted that event? Jackie moon?

    Bull**** Bro, he is right up there with them. When you look at skills, he has attributes alot of other fighters wish they had.

    You cant just steam in like a bull against a guy like Tarver no matter how old he is. He did what he had to do and boxed well enough to win a near shut out on the cards

    I don't think Hopkins needs to call Dawson out. Hopkins doesn't need Dawson, is the other way around.
