    Chad Dawon ...

    Chad Dawson had fought at 3 different weight classes early on in his career -- he had regional belts at 160, 168, and 175 ... he was in line for a title at all 3 of those weight classes and chose LHW.

    Pavlik is good but he takes alot of shots and doesn't poses the speed and agility that Dawson has. Dawson is quick, in and out, boxer, with great size (6'3) and strength.

    That was my first reaction. Who in their right mind believes Pavlik is a better boxer than Dawson?

    If you cut off Chad Dawson's arms and sawed off his ankles, He'd still be a better boxer than Pavs.

    And I'm a BIG Pavlik fan.

    Dawson, I don't think it's even close.

    Pavlik has many limitations, but his power, chin, and stamina seem to be great equalizers.

    same thing I was wondering Reg. Pavlik a better boxwer, by no means. He may have more power.
    And COngrats on beating Denver last night, that was a big time win. Im rooting for you guys. I hope you guys can make it to the #5 seed so you can eliminate the Cavaliers in the first round. I need them to prove a point for me. So im rooting for yall.

    Both have been down but both are really good. Head to head I'd have to pick Dawson becuase he has proven himself at a higher weight.

    over 3000$ profit made on boxing bets in the past year + a bunch of fake money lost betting on fighters i don't even know = you're a piece of ****

    I'm not quite sold on Dawson yet.

    I'll have you know that alot of people rate Pavlik above Chad Dawson including Ring Magazine and ESPN

    Yeah, that was a big win. I was glad they didn't boo A.I. I was sad to see him get traded. Sixers are only 1 game out of that 5th seed. The rest of their March schedule is kinda tough, so it won't be easy.

    power? chin? heart? stamina?

    Also Kelly Pavlik has more of a size advantage at 160 than Dawson has at 175
