    I was rooting for Johnson and I still think he lost, but just barely. I was hoping he'd pull it out in that last round, but Dawson had a good one.

    I can not have Dawson winning that fight 10 times out of 10.

    The fact is Dawson won the fight officially, but Johnson got robbed, as usual. He's an easy target for judges and promoters, and HE won that fight.

    Why would I go elsewhere? to objective am I? don't fit in with the usual Anti Calzaghe formula?

    Sorry, but since King Pavlik was beaten to a bloody pulp, the saviour of American boxing St Dawson has taken on his mantle, so this site has become fixated on Dawson.

    If this was asked last week, you'd be struggling to find 2 people who say Dawson... Lucky for Dawson, Pavlik got a thrashing of a life time.

    See, that's the problem I have with nuthuggers right there.

    They don't care who they're discussing with, or WHAT the other guy is telling them. You just see the name "Calzaghe" and run to defend him, even if nobody accused him or critisized him about anything. Hell, you have even started to talk about him and defend him in a thread that's about Dawson and Johnson. Weird isn't it?

    You're talking to me about "Anti-Calzaghe" formulas and shite like that, when I never said anything wrong about Joe.

    Truth be told though, it's impossibe to root for Joe when you guys hang around playing Joe's attorney.

    My take as well. Johnson did fine and can look back in pride, but he did not win.

    I scored it a draw scoring the last 2 rounds for Glen but you can easily give one of the rounds to Chad and it gives him the win.No way Johnson actually won it but the official scoring was crazy

    You're taking it far to personally, and the Nutt huggers platitudes are also tedious... just because you don't harbour ill feeling towards Joe( true or not I don't know) its clearly 90% of this forum does, hence why they will rally behind their new Calzaghe slayer.

    I'm not here to persuade you about anything regarding my belief about Calzaghe mate. I already said I respect him, he's a good champion. Believe what you want to believe. And I'm not taking anything personally, this is a forum and people discuss their views.

    No, I don't harbour ill feelings towards Joe, but I do towards his "fans", cause they (you're a fine example) are by far the most hardcore, biased and annoying, at least in this forum. You see Calzaghe even when he isn't there. I mean we're discussing Joe in this thread because of you!

    A debate works more than one way, its hardly my fault that Joe again becomes the hot topic, though he is a more exciting fighter than Dawson and Johnson.

    My whole point was...people will now vote Dawson, because lover boy Pavlik was thrashed, and they need a new hero and Calzaghe slayer.

    Johnson was announced as a Florida fighter, the fight was in Florida, and he was an underdog.

    And I was at the fight, rooting for Johnson, and thought Dawson won.

    Now present to me the 99 other attendees that claim Dawson lost.
