    Looks like Chad will be fighting Tarver.

    Decebel, for the most part, we generally agree with our grading.

    The only point I give him a much better grade is in the heart department where I feel Chad is just fine. He went down hard against Adamek and won the next round and then was bullied all over the ring late against Glen, but showed the heart of a champion holding the Road Warrior off.

    His heart is definitely grade A for me.

    Well since Dawson and Tarver both fought on the same card and both won, I feel that the Dawson/Tarver fight should happen..

    Many fighters would have done the same. "A" heart, well, I think we're talking of someone who absolutely refuses to give up, when really up against it. According to your rating, Codrington and Bika both have an "A" heart. In truth, we haven't seen Dawson really up against it, hurt, bleeding, destroyed and still coming for more.

    "A" heart is someone like Vazquez.

    Dawson doesn't have Vazquez' heart, I don't think.

    What's this talk he's got to fight Diaconu to keep his belt? Why cannot he fight Tarver first?

    Dawson's ducked Diaconu for a long time so the WBC allowed Diaconu to fight for the Interim Title. The WBC have ordered Dawson to fight Diaconu withing 90 days or lose his belt. Only way he can fight Tarver first is if he pays Diaconu a really big pay-off to let him fight Tarver with the WBC belt on the line.

    :rofl:rofl:rofl

    Only 2 of these guys even stand a chance.

    Dawson schools both Froch and Bute.

    Dawson beats Bute, but doesn't school him. Dawson ain't beating Froch, if Froch keeps a tight guard and keeps stalking him. Froch's too solid and aggressive.

    Dawson would stop Froch. It is total a mismatch.

    Bute would at least nick some rounds.

    I don't like Bute much. Froch's limited but he fights like a man. Have him in a good position to stop Dawson.

    That's complete bull****. No need to spread lies. Dawson beat Adamek for the title, made 1 defense, and then signed to fight Diaconu in September after Tarver refused to fight him. Diaconu pulled out of that fight with an injury. Dawson then took on a bigger fight in the form of Johnson while Diaconu fought for a bogus ass interim title. Diaconu is lucky he took a fight before jumping in with Dawson. He hadn't fought for like a year and looked raged against Henry.

    I stated the facts. How the **** has Dawson been ducking Dianconu for a long time when he agreed to fight him in September, then Dianconu pulled out with an injury?

    You are ignorant. I don't feel like educating you on the subject. I have done so at great length on a couple of occasions already. Won't spend time doing that again. Believe what you will, buddy, but don't call the truth "bull****". You look dumb doing so.

    future p4p #1 after he beats Joe if Joe actually fights him (which he wont, Joe Calzaghe has indrectly said many times he loves his undefeated record. Chad would end that streak for him). If Joe doesnt fight Chad, Dawson will still end up p4p#1.
