You knew it was coming, THE DAWSON POLL!

Who has a better resume Dawson or Kessler?

Kessler is good enough to beat Dawson, and stop the Dawson-hype train. Okay so your going to say Kessler can beat Dawson just because Calzaghe beat Kessler? C'mon man. Don't discredit the best light heavyweight in the world, Chad Dawson. If you read back far enough you'll understand that it's no hype train. He's proven.

Jeezus we're going to need a new poll at this rate. I am truly surprised by the amount of people who think Chad beats Joe.

Chad Dawson who is known to take rounds off is magically going to grow stamina and not take rounds off. Chad Dawson who doesn't have a over 1,000 punchers per fight is going to test Calzaghe? Kessler is good enough to beat Dawson, and stop the Dawson-hype train. Is Dawson magically going to walk through Joe's slaps, when he couldn't walk through any of middle weight glen johnsons punches... lol Please. What? He took a round or two off during the Glen Johnson fight? He damn near shutout Tarver and with the exception of losing focus and getting dropped by Adamek he made it look easy in there too. It wasn't Johnson's punches that bothered Chad. It was the in your chect pressure that Glen applies. Joe's going to pressure but give Chad more than enough room to throw his longer, straighter shots. Calzaghe is an awesome fighter but Chad does things SHARPER.

I think he would beat Calzaghe pretty good because Chad would be able to box and bang with Joe. He could out-speed and out-point Joe from a distance or get inside and throw harder, sharper shots. Most important, Chad has the legs and angles to move with Joe. Something Joe's great at. But Chad wins. Chad Dawson who is known to take rounds off is magically going to grow stamina and not take rounds off. Chad Dawson who doesn't have a over 1,000 punchers per fight is going to test Calzaghe? Kessler is good enough to beat Dawson, and stop the Dawson-hype train. Is Dawson magically going to walk through Joe's slaps, when he couldn't walk through any of middle weight glen johnsons punches... lol

Hopkins would be Dawson's biggest test because he's so ****ing defensive. But B-Hop has a problem with athletic, high-punch output guys (Taylor, Calzaghe) and Dawson is the most athletic of the bunch. It would be closer but I see Chad winning. I think he would beat Calzaghe pretty good because Chad would be able to box and bang with Joe. He could out-speed and out-point Joe from a distance or get inside and throw harder, sharper shots. Most important, Chad has the legs and angles to move with Joe. Something Joe's great at. But Chad wins. And he'd find Kessler the same way he found Adamek. They both have those european straight up styles. Throw in the fact that Adamek is a bigger puncher than Kessler and it makes for an even easier night for Chad Dawson.

So in other words.....Chad beats none of them? :lol1: Calzaghe has NEVER faced a slick southpaw like Dawson Kessler would look like Tarver did when he thought that 6 o'clock style(straight up and down) would trouble Chad. Hopkins is my man so I'll just leave it there. Dawson has never and probably WILL never fight anyone as good as Joe Calzaghe. Dawsons name has rarely been mentioned in the same breath as Joe until now. Why would Joe fight Dawson for peanuts? No promoter is going to jump through hoops to get this one! So Dawson beats Calzaghe but Hopkins owns him? Hmmm, i think you need to look back in history a few months.

I swear that was an accident :lol1: I like your Ferrari gif.

Wow if ever there was proof of Calzaghe hate. 12 people think Dawson would beat Calzaghe and only 7 think he would beat Hopkins :nono: Opinions are opinions, they don't mean much. Chill!

Wow. Its like the Calzaghe vs Hopkins fight never happened. Its really hard for some of you guys to accept that Calzaghe won that fight and is currently the superior fighter. If someone who just got into boxing came to this forum they would genuinely think that Hopkins won that fight...and before anyone says anything...he didnt. There was no poor judging by the mainly AMERICAN judges, it was no gift decision to Calzaghe as the outsider to the country. He won. Thats the only fact.

Idk, his stamina isn't there and he takes rounds off. While Calzaghe, Kessler have shown that they come to fight every single round. That is kind of why it is ludicrous for people to suggest calzaghe ducks dawson.

Wow if ever there was proof of Calzaghe hate. 12 people think Dawson would beat Calzaghe and only 7 think he would beat Hopkins :nono:

I voted for Kessler although I think that is a very close fight, I think the fact that Kessler has never fought at 175 and the fact that Dawson is a slick southpaw would give him the edge. Would be a good fight though and I think Kessler's power could cause Dawson problems.

Bloody hell I wasn't expecting that from you Flawless, even with your hate for Calzaghe you still think Joe would win. That says a lot. He voted that Dawson would beat Calzaghe.

Dawson beats Kessler UD makes him look shit and very slow Hopkins and Calzaghe would most likely beat him by SD Bloody hell I wasn't expecting that from you Flawless, even with your hate for Calzaghe you still think Joe would win. That says a lot.

Seriously 8 people think Dawson beats Calzaghe, this is hilarious.

Calzaghe vs Dawson - Calzaghe by wide UD Kessler vs Dawson - Kessler by brutal KO Hopkins vs Dawson - Hopkins by UD So in other words.....Chad beats none of them? :lol1: Calzaghe has NEVER faced a slick southpaw like Dawson Kessler would look like Tarver did when he thought that 6 o'clock style(straight up and down) would trouble Chad. Hopkins is my man so I'll just leave it there.

Haven't seen Kessler at 175 so it's tough to say who wins that, I'd pick Calzaghe and Hopkins over him but Dawson would have his moments in both fights.

Dawson beats Calzaghe lmao Of course he does. Calzaghe a. Slaps b. Can't punch / is featherfisted c. Hasn't fought nobody (sic) d. Always fights old guys and never fights young guys in there (sic) prime

Dawson beats Calzaghe lmao
