    I asked the same question elsewhere but got few responses. I watched the fight yesterday and scored it 115-113 for Dawson and one of the rounds that Johnson won was round 11. It was at least a draw, but not a win for Glen Johnson.

    Edit: I got Johnson winning rounds 3,4,5,10,11.

    I also thought that Chad Dawson won, and I would give maximum a draw, but not Johnson winning.

    I had it 7-5 for Dawson aswell from memory. In my view of him he actually proved himself somewhat as an elite fighter that night because he was in against a very good version of Johnson. Some people saw that fight as him getting "exposed" but I didnt have the high opinion of Chad that a lot of people seemed to have going into that fight. I dont think Team Dawson want a rematch because they know Chad got away by the skin of his teeth that night..probably makes smart business sense they stay away from Glenn.

    8-4 Dawson. It looked closer and was close cause Johnson won his rounds by larger margins.

    6-6 , but what was apparant in this fight is Dawson's complete lack of adaptability. Rather than adjust to Johnson mid-fight he simply done the same and continued to lose rounds.

    Thats what seperates him and elite fighters like Calzaghe and Hopkins. Nothing to do with physical attributes that you Dawson fans keep on going on about.

    8-4 Dawson...it really wasn't as close as everyone makes it out to be(IMO).

    Dawson won the first 6 rounds...i think i gave Johnson rounds 7,10,11,12 or maybe 9,10,11... either way,he DIDN'T win the fight:deal
