this will be another HBO snooze fest. i can see dawson on his bike trying to get hit by johnson and johnson trying to come foward and only foward and not cutting off the ring. unless johnson cuts off the ring or dawson tries to box him without using a unicycle, i see this as a boring 12 round UD in dawson favor.

An hour before the fight, same day weigh ins are back.
What? So be it then. The weigh in is what gets people excited about the fight a lot of times. I don't see too many people talking about it tonight. And that may be why.

The fight is anticipated due to being an overdue rematch. I do not expect fireworks however, or at least not to the degree of the original fight. Johnson has slowed noticeably since then.
I actually hope Dawson steps up his aggression this time, whilst showing a significant improvement in stamina. If he manages to bring those attributes to the game, and beat Johnson convincingly (even though I had it 116-112 for Dawson last time, which IMO is convincing enough), we could be seeing the making of a 'great' fighter at last.
Right now I only consider Dawson 'very good'. Not quite the TRUTH yet.
i hope he does as well, i don't mind no aggression in a fighter but if gets to the point where you can get your man out of there then you better take that chance. depending on how he does this fight will tell me wheather or not he worth the hype.
