As much as I'd like to see Joe fight both Pavlik and Dawson, I doubt that it would happen. Joe has made his intentions clear regarding the rest of his career. His career will not be tarnished if he does not fight these guys. And not fighting them is definitely not due to him being scared of anyone.
"Who the **** is Dawson? Whom did he beat? He has hidden over there in the USA fighting American oldies and ducked all the Europeans that wanted to fight him! If he wants to fight Calzaghe, he should come over here and make a name for himself, fighting Kessler, Bute, Froch, Diaconu on British or German TV! Then the fans over here will get to hear of him and he might get a shot! Until then, Dawson is a nobody!" ...does that argument sound familiar to anyone?
So he beat Tarver and now he is the best there is? Give Johnson another crack. Now, eveyone is calling out Joe.
He already beat Johnson what's so hard to understand about this? Calzaghe needs to fight Dawson he's proven he's legit by fighting and beating Adamek, Johnson and Tarver in a 5 fight period.:deal
calzaghe doesnt need to fight dawson, its dawson who needs to fight calzaghe before he retires from boxing..... I would love to see the fight, but calzaghe is chasing money now, and rightfully so, he already beat up two beltholders who were favored to beat him, and then he beat an ATG in Hopkins. He doesn't need Dawson as much as Dawson needs him for his resume.
rightfully so lmao! Like Joe have chased tough fights before. He has been selling out arenas against bums. How about doing one for legacy? for his fans or hell for boxing fans.
This is probably the most logical post I've seen on any boxing forum in the last five years! I do wonder if it'll go over the heads of its intended recipients though
