Keep dreaming... aint gonna happen. Ps. Hopkins dont fight like an old timer & Jones is only considered really past it because of what Jones was - which is 1 of the best fighters ever but if you look at Jones as a general contender in the LHWT class then he isnt bad at all, he would certainly take care of the B level guys, he did ok vs Joe, he just got outworked.
Dawson was lucky to get the decision against Glenn Johnson, I see Hopkins, Kessler and Jones beating him also at this point...It would be a stupid fight for Joe to take he would be better off fighting the Kessler/Bute winner or a rematch with B-Hop.....Nothing more for Joe to prove...beating Dawson would do nothing for him....Taylor would handle Dawson
Does Dawson have Julian Jackson or Nigel Benn type power? No? Then he's not going to KO Calzaghe in round 1.
If you think about 'How many hard shots has Joe taken at LHW? both fighters at LHW had low output of hard shots vs Joe mainly because of thier age and fittness. And when they did land both in the 1st Joe went down, my thinking is if someone can keep them hard shots coming for most of the fight Joe would get K.O. Chad Dawson can.
lucian bute would bum **** dawson in less than 4 rounds. kessler would take him in 2 and same with pavlik. dawson is B class on his good nyts after seeing johnson whoop him
that's hardly something that is mutually exclusive to calzaghe. i certainly wouldn't want you in my corner. "look, if you keep hitting this guy hard in the face you'll eventually knock him out!!" i do want dawson-calzaghe in cardiff though, badly.
