    I watched his past 3 fights for the first few rounds of each...I honestly couldnt watch past the 5th. Hes an amazing boxer, but VERY boring at times. Hoping that he picks it up....then again, maybe it was his opposition that bored me. I really have no intrest in seeing him fight guys like tarver and johnson.

    Why wouldn't I watch? He's the best boxer in the world 154 and up.

    One poster suggested that boxing fans have never shown interest in watching Dawson's fights, so I put up the poll to see whether fans (at least on ESB) feel that way. I sure don't.

    I think so, too. He'll be more exciting when the guys he fights (unlike Tarver, Johnson, et al) aren't so hard to look good against. And he managed to slug it out in the first Johnson fight, it just wasn't smart.

    But against less durable opponents, he has gotten them out of their reasonably quickly. He and Bute would have a very entertaining fight, IMO.

    i also posted "no" because it is hard as hell to get any of his fights in canada without trying to find a damn stream for 3 hours

    WTF is this nonsense? He's a damn good fighter. Why wouldn't I watch him?

    I really don't get why Chad Dawson takes so much **** on this forum. The guy has never talked any **** and does his best in the ring.

    Didn't you know that he shamelessly ran and hid from the monster Adrian Diaconu?

    By the way, there are plenty of fighters who are much less exciting that I watch. I find it almost inconceivable that someone could be a hardcore fan of the sport who doesn't watch elite fighters based on stylistic preference alone.
