    you really seem to like making a Tit out of yourself don't you?

    Dawson, the zombie, has a better resume than Froch?? take your addiction for glue elsewhere. :-(

    all day, every day. Dawson is nowhere near to the accomplishments of Froch. only an idiot would think so. :deal

    yes, Taylor did beat Hopkins, but it still doesn't make him the better fighter overall. no way.

    i rate Pascal a level below Dawson. the rest i agree with.

    Froch is overrated, but the monthly hype job that America comes up with, like they're the bees knees, is worthy?

    Froch is legit. to say otherwise is messed up.

    get back to that future ATG Thurman, that's more your level. leave the real fighters to those that know. :lol:

    And let's be honest- Dawson will be a lot more remembered for his failures than his success - Froch the opposite way round.

    and neither was Hearns the best at any of the weights he fought in. but he's still one of the best in history.

    Ward didn't dominate either. he won, but Froch was there all the way.

    Froch might lose H2H to Ward but has a better resume and is the greater fighter just like Hopkins loses H2H to Calzaghe but is the greater fighter with the better resume.

    I agree Froch is a HOF fighter no doubt.

    To steal a line from you:

    Not just practically everyone who has commented on this thread, but the Boxing Writer's Association of America- as you'll see when they vote Froch into the International Boxing Hall of Fame and don't vote in Dawson (if he even makes the ballot)

    initially vegas was mooted as a potential venue, but then ward sabotaged his own career. but for the hard of thinking, i repeat, WARD AIN'T FIGHTING! i'm glad i'm not a fan of a talented champ who makes poxy excuses instead of defences. imagine having to regurgitate his bull**** on the internet instead of enjoying his career. ****'s game.
    lucky his career amounts to so much more than that, then. although you need to reel it in a bit. it was a creditable, technically proficient points victory and nothing more. nobody was beaten up that night.

    He might have one better win on paper over Hopkins but is it really that impressive?

    Hopkins was 47 or 48 when he beat him for that title and coming of an injury- a title Calzaghe had beat him for 5 years earlier (traveling to the US to do so), in a fight Dawson was favored to win anyway (and on paper also only won by MD) due to the stylistic advantages he held over Bernard.

    Then after that there is the past it duo of Tarver and Johnson he fought twice in fights people barely wanted to see once, and Adamek.

    And don't forget how Dawson's losses look on his resume you like to talk about so much, after all, part of a Hall of Fame creditials scored is how you perform in your most meanigful fights (and his 3 losses are probably in his top 4 or 5 most meaningful fights)

    - beaten by a guy Froch had already beat in a title fight (and a guy who isn't really that special), quitting after being dropped 3 times by pillow fisted Ward (something Ward could not do to Froch), and an embarrassing KO1 loss in his first defense to the shite Stevenson (who decided to withdraw from his mandatory position for Froch title to go for Dawson).

    Froch meanwhile had a a loss to Kessler in Denmark he avenged and got all the way to the Super Six final and lost to Ward in the USA (which two judges saw as a close fight- if we look at it on paper).

    If you remove your hatred of British fighters from the equation it's not hard to see why Froch is getting in and Dawson isn't.
