Ok, that headline may be a little misleading, I can't back that up like I can Joe's Zeus-like powers of ring generalship but it seems to me people are making forgone conclusions that Dawson's going to retire GJ's ass. Two facts my friends: If Johnson is anything he is not predicable. Ask Tarver, Woods & Jones, moreover he has heart and runs from no one taking on all. Secondly, Dawson's a paper champion. Deal with it. Johnson to win in a (supposed) upset. You heard it here first.
Number 1, Dawson is not a paper champ. Number 2, Johnson will get his old ass kicked all over that ring.
Dawson will establish himself as the clear #1 at LHW by making an example out of Glen Johnson. :good Johnson deserves major props though, he was the only one willing to fight the previous WBC champ Adamek when the Pole called the entire division out, from top to bottom, and now he is the only LHW player (besides Diaconu, who pulled out) who is willing to face Bad Chad Dawson. A warrior indeed.
i think dawson will do a number on johnson. johnsons chance would be if he was a banger. saturday night johnson teed off flat footed on a punching bag and needed a 100 flush shots to finish the job. remmeber woods had johnsons legs doing funny things in there last fight. a good showcase fight for dawson v a known commodity in johnson and in which dawson`s speed /power and length ,should do a number on johnson and showcase his skills and talent . but johnson is not finished despite being 39 and if dawson does have flaws in his chin and it is very weak then johnson will get through a few times and we will find out.
Dawson will beat seven shades out of Johnson. How is Dawson a paper champ also when he beat Adamek to gain the title? And how exactly is Johnson going to get to a guy who is quicker, more powerful, and techincally leagues above himself? I can't wait to bump this ridiculous thread when this fight comes around. What I also can't wait for is a Dawson v Calzaghe match up, so that Dawson can really show that he is one of the greatest talents in boxing right now.
I thought dawson was the future of LHW division. People were saying that he could beat hopkins and JC. Now he his going to lose to johnson. I can't understand people of this forum. Juts wonder amazinghook your avator is it Gemma atkinson because she looks stunning.
Diaconu is dangerous for Dawson, very dangerous. But since he fades in fights, I pick Dawson to stop him around 10 if they fight.
