I hope this is a good fight, but I would like to see Dawson come out victorious. If Tarver wins it will only cause a rubber match because I can't see him fighting anyone else.
Tarver was so lost last fight that Dawson threw one punch an entire round and still won that round. Tarver could not penetrate CHads defense.
I am rooting for Tarver, one thing is sure: he is mentally 100%. I will never forget "what excuses tonight Roy?" And 2 rounds later came the biggest upset of the decade. That means something. Go Tarver!
Coming in shape means he is taking the fight seerious. Like it's his last chance at a payday. However, he is still to slow and will be easy for Dawson to hit. I hope the magic man can pull it of but its not likely
excuse my ignorance but what is the point of this fight? In the first fight Tarver was well beaten..Chad was the better man by far. It wasnt a close or controversial fight.. Not the best to watch either.. Is it happening simply because neither of them have any better options at the point?
I just tried rewatching it. Jesus christ, the Calzaghe vs Hop fight was more interesting. Tarver throws 2 telegraphed punches. Dawson hits him 5 times. Tarver throws 2 telegraphed punches. Dawson hits him 5 times. I really hope Dawson opens up and tries to get Tarver out of there.
Yeah I'm not sure I want my roommates(who I'm trying to get into boxing) watching this fight. I've heard from a guy who trains at the same gym as Tarver that he put in a lot more work for this fight than he had in the last few years but who knows. Dawson wins and hopefully makes it an exciting fight.
hope it's a good fight and i realy don't like tarver Dawson should win by a late round stoppage around the 10th or 11th round but i'll roll with tarver this time by a sweep good night looping left hand reminisent of the The Ko over RJJ in the 2nd fight but i say it happens in 6
