Have you seen Inkin fight? At 168 he would give Dawson a boxing lesson. Froch has the power to stop Dawson. Stop assuming that Dawson is so good, because he is American. His amateur base is nothing compared to fighters like Brahemer and Inkin. He will avoid 168 because the competition is too tough.
You don't know what the **** you're talking about. Dawson's would be the one giving out the boxing lesson. Not to mention he hits harder and has better skills than Froch or Inkin any unbiased poster will tell you this as well. You sound like a hating ass Euro fan you do realize that Dawson beat Adamek for the WBC LHW title and he's a Euro fighter don't you?:deal
Adamek was weight drained for the fight and still dropped Dawson. Not the first time Dawson has been on the floor. His chin is very questionable. Dawson is a good fighter. That's it. He will be exposed soon. I hope he fights Kessler or one of the other fighters I mentioned. BTW, I have actually seen all these fighters box.
When someone says "Pure" boxer, I think of a smart fighter that uses tools to set up stronger tools; Floyd Chad Dawson Juan Diaz Wlad Klitchko
i think joan guzman, vernon forrest, witter, mosley, mijares, soto, chris john and ulises solis should get some consideration too. but we all know pbf is the correct answer.
well in that case i would give it to bhop. he might be the craftiest fighter in the game with calzaghe a close second. to me, in boxing, crafty = smart.
Calzaghe been dropped in the ring just as many times..... Is he chinny. Dawson got up and proceeded to whoop ass and he recovered very well. He beat Adamek Pillar to post. No more of those bull**** "EURO EXCUSES" mother ****ers always making excuses for getting there asses kicked. Weight drained etc etc. he was the champ at 175. He moved up b/c he would get another ass kicking if they fought again with his slow ass. "oh he was sick". "His trunks were too tight" ****ing british and euro excuses.
I am neither Euro or British. This is not a nationalistic issue. I am analyzing without emotion. Look at the facts. Dawson is just an American "hope" in this current era of strong Euros. He will soon be exposed for the good, but not exceptional, fighter he is.
