    Its all i can find, but Johnson looks like he's handling Dawson again..

    Was it really that far on the score cards?

    i stopped watching after the 8th and I can say that johnson MAYBE took two rounds to that point and looked old and past his athletic best. i read that johnson came on strong at the end (as always) and dawson got lazy (as always) but johnson would have had to sweep the last four on my card to get a draw. dawson was just too dominant last night

    Did Johnson actually thought he won at the end there? Reports I've heard sugges a very clear win for Dawson.

    wtf you are talking about, imo Dawson won at least 9 rounds. His defense was superb and Johnson couldn't do **** everytime Dawson opened up.

    You are right, I think that im done with Dawson, i mean he got good skills but hes a too layback fighter. He needs a little more of fire a hunger, i dont know maybe throw more punches:huh

    The 12th was one of Johnson's three best rounds (the others being the 11th and the 6th).

    The only one where you can make a strong, credible argument in his favor is the 6th.

    Poor old ******* did somehow think he got robbed again. After four rounds (all of them lost clear as mud), he complained when his corner said "you're down 0-4". He was genuinely pissed. He didn't believe them. :verysad

    When people start telling you over and over that you're a victim, you assume a victim mentality. Glen's a lifelong gent but he's gotten delusional with all the back-patting and sympathetic affirmation of "robberies" in his past close fights.

    Very true. And not many people mention that in Johnson's most significant 12 round bout, against Tarver I for the undisputed championship, he himself received a decision he did not deserve.

    Johnson won the first fight and Dawson won the second fight, which was so damned boring.

    The first fight was epic and could have gone either way (Personally I gave it to Dawson) The second fight was horrible I had Dawson winning 10 rounds.

    Dawson was kinda boring in the rematch but it is hard to look good against a game and tough warrior like Johnson

    I cannot believe that Dawson chose the monicker "Bad Chad" when he is far from bad in the ring. He is so defensive-minded that he can't even go toe-to-toe with a 40 years old Johnson.
