    I dont think this thread was as stupid at the people who are supporting the idiot that made it.

    And you can laugh at my writing erros, but since English is my second language I think I do a pretty good job at it.

    Dawson has already beaten more top LHW's than Joe C has beaten in his entire career. Get real man.

    What the hell are you talking about - I don't think you even know yourself. I will repeat my statment again: Both Kessler's, and Calzaghes resumes were behind Dawson's at 27 fights - Dawson is now chasing a fight with the P4P no3.

    Dawson is a good fighter, he has beaten good fighters, I dont think he is the top 10 p4p, but what wrong with just being world class...? Why is everyone have to a an ATG or a ''Legend'' or a complete hyped fraud...?

    Dawson is World class... but Calzaghe, Hopkins and Kessler all beat him.:good

    Are you sure about Hading?

    The other 3 were but I didn't know Harding was.

    The difference, of course, is that Dawson's resume is light years ahead of Kessler's already.

    A lil bit extreme, he has the bigger names in Johnson and Tarver, but excluding losing to Calzaghe, Kessler has hardly lost a round of boxing thorughout his career.

    Also resume means very lil when two fighters go head to head. Taylor had a better resume than Pavlik for example.

    Kessler won't beat Dawson. Kessler and his people know this, which is why they're trying to claim Dawson is a Cruiserweight.

    Nah, Kess drops him atleast once before going onto win a decision. And yes Palle is an idiot.

    No, Palle is smart. So is Kessler. They would be all over this fight if they thought they could do to Dawson what you claim. Dawson is a bad style matchup for Kessler. I like Kessler, but there seems to be no middle ground with this guy. People either overrate or underrated him like crazy. Kessler isn't going to beat any of the top guys at 175. He should just stick to SMW.
