    Glen Johnson and Chad Dawson both deserve a fight with Joe C., and either has a chance to beat him. I don't buy the B.S. about how Joe has done everything he needs to do and might as well just retire now. For years, he fought sub-par opposition, not unlike RJ. Both should have done better when they were in their primes, both should have taken more challenges when it counted. They'll both end up in the HOF, but pale in comparison to past champs who fought all comers and weren't afraid of a couple losses along the way. One way for Joe C. to really go out on top is to fight Johnson and Dawson next year - Johnson because he's been a top contender for years that Joe has avoided and Dawson because he's the best of the young lions in the division. For Joe to retire after beating two past-their-prime greats, and claim he's taken care of business, is bogus, as far as I'm concerned.

    I love when he says this:

    "I have been to England three times. I won the World Title there. Your fans know me, all of England knows me. Nobody knows who Chad Dawson is!"

    Doesnt Glen Johnson play football for Pompey??? ;)

    Translation: "Dear Joe: I want some money, and you're my ticket." :lol:

    But really, i love Johnson and he deserves a big fight.

    Glen Johnson is and always has been an avoided forgotten unlucky honest fighter and imo he beat chad dawson !
    dawson was hitting glens arms and gloves most of the fight.

    Glen is tough as they come, but stylistically he is badly suited to beat Joe.

    This is a rather easy fight for Joe despite the fact that I really like Johnson and think he is a tough sob.
