    He's a little over hyped at the moment but I like him and his style. I think the comments by Mayweather really did him in.

    I think he is rated just about right, if not underrated by some. I just can't wait to see him fight again, the guy is pure entertainment in the ring.

    He is underrated somewhat. Skill wise he's te best we've seen in a long time @ 175.

    i am not american and i do not think he is too overrated,he has a win over adamek who beat cunningham and o`neil bell so he has to be a good fighter.
    i wish he rematched johnson and not tarver as johnson is the one who holds the question mark over his head.

    Nah. Chad Dawson is a top fighter. He would have seriously tested Calzaghe, and his resume is already good with plenty of time to improve on it.

    I dont think he is overrated at all! he is rated were he is supposed to be right now! To say Kessler would destroy him, only makes Kess overrated instead! its def a 50/50 fight that could go both ways, really hope that fight can happend some day!

    When someone has beaten Adamek, Tarver and Johnson as well as owning the WBC, IBF and IBO titles; well I'm not sure if that person can be overrated. Those achievements clearly make him one of the elites of his weight class and arguably the world.

    Crowd reaction and facial expresions are how you detremine who wins a fight?:patsch Funny I thought it was about clean effective punching ring generalship and effective defense.
