    Both are very fast southpaws, who do you think is the more skilled, allaround fighter?

    Calzaghe, Dawson throws nice crisp combos but he's a mental lawn chair cut from the same cloth as Zab Judah and Roy Jones.

    Chad, easily! Joe isn't all that skilled (compared to Chad). He fights similar to the style of Manny P (does have some good skills, though). Joe's greatest skills are his footwork and speed. He isn't much of a technical boxer. Chad has good power, good speed, decent defense, and very good technical boxing skills.

    Chad, that doesnt mean he would beat Joe cause he is not active enough but he is more skilled.
