Anybodies final predictions for this weeks light heavyweight title fight? I'm picking Tarver by late stoppage.
It's gonna' be a good close fight I think.. Both should be bringing their A-game.. We might see Dawson hit the canvas once, but I expect the younger star to edge it out.. Dawson SD Tarver
And when Tarver does win, a couple months down the road they'll try to pick apart the Dawson victory and still not give him any credit, until inevibility knocks out Calzaghe than they'll be sold.
Dawson has the tools to go past Tarver but not without being tested in stages through 12 rounds imo. I see Tarver being worn down by accumulation as he won't be walking through Chad's punches like Johnson did. Tarver's chance is a shaky Dawson chin but has declining speed and timing and unless he catches Chad with something really big I don't think he has finishing capabilities to stop him.
