    I'm sick and tired of the Chad Dawson bashing with threads about him being "exposed". Give the guy a break. He was in a lose/lose situation fighting Johnson. Johnson is one of the toughest if not toughest light heavies right now. And he's a stylistic nightmare for ANY lightheavy. The guy has very good defense, an IRON chin, and MAKES you fight 3 minutes of every round. And I see most of the hate is coming from Calzaghe fans... It's funny how they forget how Calzaghe almost went life and death with SAKIO BIKA... Yeah the guy from the CONTENDER! Chad Dawson showed alot of heart and a warrior mentality after getting stunned he came back the very next round and hit Johnson with some great shots just like he did in the Adamek fight. Give the man a break I dont see anyone looking good against Johnson. And lets not even say Calzaghe cause he fought Bika at 168 and Bika gave him hell so he's not gonna do nothing to Johnson at 175! What are your thoughts?

    Dawson was exposed because he's clearly not what everyone expected him to be, myself included. As I said before.. he's Cory Spinks with more skill.

    The ONLY thing Dawson needs to improve on is his defense. He needs to blocks with gloves more, and use more foot movement, once he fixes that he will be unstoppable. In this fight he will already proved that he had a chin. Needs a better trainer though.

    You're a moron. Who would of did better against Johnson? And Cory Spinks with more skill is not being exposed. That's actually a great compliment. Cory Spinks is a boring fighter but the boy has great skills.. He just doesnt have any power and Chad does have power he knocked Adamek down and Adamek is now fighting at CRUISERWEIGHT.

    He knocked Adamek off balance, there's a difference.

    Dawson fought well in a tough fight, but in my opinion, he needs to improve not only his defense but also his technique. There were way too many times when he was standing in the pocket without punching... even in the early rounds.

    Dawson is f'kin dog****. I swear he's the most overrated fighter I've ever seen. Every time I see him he looks worse. Make no mistake, Glen johnson is shot to ****, old as hell and slow as Molasses in January. people have actually compared this pitty patter joker to Roy Jones :lol:

    My thoughts? He should give Glen a rematch. Something he's not willing to do, yet Johnson deserves. Hope it happens.

    This was the best thing to happen to Dawson. He was hurt and stayed composed. This kid is a quality fighter. He went in with a very solid former champion who can bring it despite his age. When was the last time Johnson did not win late rounds?
