    (1) Tarver is over the hill and that win was not impressive.

    (2) Johnson got ROBBED.

    (3) Adamek is a legit win

    Dawson needs to fight better opponents to be rated in top 10p4p. Right now he is just working his way up.

    Cool bud.

    Im a fan of Hop and i wouldnt mind a rematch, but i just think it wont get any closer in Wales a year and a bit later, and id probably rather remember a close fight between 2 Top 5 P4P this year.

    Got a horrible feeling a crowd drunk ref stops Hop 8-10 in Wales, and apart from the **** we would get on here, from both sides of the argument, i dont think Bernard deserves something like that. I'd rather Dawson or Taylor. But like i said i wont cry if the rematch happens, but no matter the result(or the percieved result it wouldnt really change Calz's standing(or Hop's) to me.

    Right around 10-13 right now. 2009, unfortuneately will not likely be productive for Dawson. He has to rematch the no hoper Tarver and then beats up his mandatory Dianconu. Thats pretty much all of 2009 right there. Its a shame we cant get mroe than 2 ****ing fights a year from these professional fighters.

    Yep, especially from 20+ year olds trying to build their name and they are fighting as frequently as the old school. It's frustrating.

    First of all.. he is clearly NOT the No. 1 LHW.

    Calzaghe and Hopkins are ahead of him. However, I will not object to him being borderline top 10 or perhaps just inside top 10. But he is only third best LHW.
