So it looks like Dawson-Johnson 2 in 2009?

    Given how awesome the first fight was and the fact that both men will probably have belts (I got Dawson outworking Tarver and Johnson outworking Diacanou) this unification fight should be a pretty big attraction. The winner of that fight should get a guaranteed shot at the Ring Champ.

    I doubt if this fight will happen ... Johnson is at the tail end of his career ... Dawson's only 25 or 26 ... so he has a few more years to progress and reach his prime ...

    I think that Johnson should aim to fight Tarver in a rubber match and give Jones a shot at redemption ...

    I really do hope that's how the division pans out.

    I personally scored the Dawson/Johnson fight a draw, while many scored for Dawson and many for Johnson. It was as close a fight as you can get. Definitely unfinished business there.

    I doubt they'll rematch if it doesn't happen immediately. I scored the first fight for Johnson. unfortunately, Johnson won't be able to fight any better the second time around - but Dawson has plenty of room to improve on his performance.

    I think Johnson will get KO by Diaconu and then say goodbye to the world of boxing. Dawson will win vs Tarver...after those fights Dawson will still be running away from the Great Shark Diaconu...I get it a normal thing when you have a fragile chin !!
