They have waited 19 months to get the remtach on with Glen, hoping his age will have caught up with him, he will be nearly 41 come fight time. Why didn't Dawson's team give Johnson the rematch right after there first fight?
Because they didnt want to risk Dawson losing his precious 0 against the road warrior. So they thought we will wait until he gets older and slower, and then take the rematch.
As we stand a much chance of beating him.
Man, I really hope Glen can pull it off!
WAR Glen!

Dawson couldn't rematch Glen Johnson right away because he had to deal with mandatory Adrian Diaconu. At that time Dawson was holding the WBC belt. Dawson skipped a fight against Diaconu and fought Tarver instead.
chad plays his cards right and keeps learning, he'll be one of the most dangerous 175 lb. fighters that came along in a long time...like spinks
Dude, you're a joke. Why you nut hug Chad and down talk Hopkins constantly when Bernard is a way more intelligent and skilled fighter in the ring is beyond me.
He should of give Glen a straight rematch, and then fought Tarver. And then they give Tarver another fight, 6 months after battering him, why did he get a remtach straight away?
Tarver had a rematch clause because he was the champion, Johnson didn't because he was the challenger. Plus, you make it seem as if Dawson actually wanted the rematch, when he clearly didn't. In his own words ''it was a waste of time''.
Another thing that should be considered is that Johnson was never any type of mandatory, Dawson willingly fought Johnson since he was a good name and took that fight as a stepping stone to bigger money fights. So in reality, he really doesn't owe Johnson anything.
No offence take you glasses off and get your head out of dawsons ass!
Thanks for the kind words.

I am rooting for Glen as well. :boxing:
that's bs and ts you know it glen johnson is a man stop holding his hand he got his rematch when alot of fighters in his position wouldn't even get rematches.
if he doesn't win the fight and you come up with some excuse of age and shit wht in the hell did chad take the fight for anyway.
he's already getting accused of ducking young fighter for old ones, besides how do we know you wouldn't have used the age excuse had chad won the second time no matter the wait?
It took Dawson's camp so long to make the rematch because beating Tarver meant more and he claimed another title( and Tarver is also a bigger name than Glen), so its like why wouldn't he take the fight? Also, lets not remember that the fight was only last year.
When was you ever a fan of Chad Dawson?

i mean as far as rematches go, this one comes fairly quick, given that most fighters in dawson's position rarely rematch tough fights in which they eked out a close decision...so, what more do you want...

Word. Chad had some bullshit excuse after the 1st fight, and that's why I fell off as a fan of his. I regained some lost respect for him when he signed the rematch, but I'm afraid it's too late for Glen to make it count. I hope I'm wrong. I'd luv to see the Road Warrior win it.
