    I just read at the scene that Dawson is willing to drop down to 168 after he beats Tarver and fight all comers at 168. How do you guys see a fight with Froch and Dawson turning out?

    Depends how loosing the weight would affect Dawson. If Froch was to move up to LHW and fight Dawson, my money would be on Chad. Pound for Pound I think Dawson is the better fighter, but comming down to SMW he would probably be drained.

    That is Froch's ass if it ever happens. Ain't no gassin' gonna occur in that one. Ain't nobody in the buildin' is gonna be able to tear the ferocious yank off of Froch's ass.

    Dawson would knock Froch out.

    That's the first I've heard Dawson having glass jaw. Got any proof?

    Froch could KO Dawson but he wouldnt outbox him.

    75% Dawson on points

    25% Froch KO

    imo

    Dawson by stoppage following an embarrassing schooling.

    Even though he'd be weight-drained.

    I'd fancy Froch to win it at 168 lbs.

    if they could do it at a catch weight, dawson knocks froch out in a one sided affair with not so much as a competive moment.

    froch was beaten soundly by taylor until the final 16 seconds of the fight. can anyone tell me what taylor has that dawson doesnt? just one asset please?

    dawson is faster, with better stamina, has the reach advantage, has much better power,hes bigger, has a better boxing iq, and hes a south paw.

    dawson made prime adamek look like he was mismatched. care to tell me what froch has on adamek.

    I heard reports of Dawson weighing 170lbs three days before fighting Glen Johnson. Dawson was weighing 178lbs a month before fighting Tarver.

    If Calzaghe can fight at 95% being weight drained against Kessler, I'm sure Dawson can make 168 as well.
