Chad Dawson is the most underrated fighter in boxing today.

He isn't fighting Hopkins leftovers tommorrow night like Tarver, although I'm a little hesitant to say Pascal is better than Johnson is. I just don't view the dude as this spectacular fighter that people make him out to be. He couldn't beat Tarver as convincingly as Hopkins did in either of those fights. Maybe he can win me over a little tommorrow night, but I just don't see what everybody else is seeing about him being the second coming of Jesus Christ. He's one of the most praised fighters on this board, that's for sure. Bro, you're a hater. We get it. :lame:

that's all you have to say?

I agree. With this kinda speed, height, reach, and skills he should earn some respect. I think it's about time, people will take him more seriously when he beat the best LHs out there and unify the titles.

And he should have a higher KO record than what he has. I know Johnson is definitely tough to knock out, so I won't look down on him for that. But why didn't he step on the gas when he had Tarver exhausted at the end of both fights?

Underrated?...NO Underappreciated?...YES

Dawson is the future of this sport. I think he should talk just a little more, he can be on top of the boxing world after his next 2-3 fights. Pascal-Bute than Cloud/Super 6 fighter. He has the opponents to build one hell of a resume.

If Dawson continues on his current pace; Takes out Pascal, Bute and Cloud, and one or both of Andre Ward and Andre Dirrell, then he'll go down as a top 25 ATG. He'll never have a huge fan-base because of his style and the way in which he carries himself, but regardless, he'll go down as an ATG.

It's because of fight fans being all caught up in worshiping the 2 superstars!!Dawson isn't underrated,just underappreciated!!That's why I support him along with my other favorite fighters,because they all deserve it!!:hail:

If U dont think Chad will retire as an atg.......ur bugging! He's been in there with bangers,boxers,crafty vets,now he's got an action fighter on the menu, this kids resume is gonna be astonishing win or loss when its all over. Glad to see someone recognize the truth when they see it. They'll eventually see it or keep on looking for excuses to hate. It'll happen either way. Dawson is Michael Nunn with power and discipline. It's going to take another ATG to knock him off.

I don't know about him being more skilled then Calderon, but he's very skilled nonetheless so he's up there. Just wish he would switch it up more, rounds can be very repetitive when he's fighting. Yeah, he's up there. I'm going to catch flack for this, but I don't give a shit. As far as skills go, Guzman has to be in the convo. The man will be in his 5th weight class and just got done beating the biggest fighter in his 4th, a 6'1 freak that can throw 1000+ punches with a solid jab and power. And Guzman does it without power like Calderon, but without non stop circling on his toes. Dawson is 2-3 spots underrated on the Ring P4P list, but there's fighters that are more underrated. Timothy Bradley, Sergio Martinez, and Rafa Marquez for example.

chad get more praised then anyone

What ? The guy is there in that list with the best P4P, not underrated for sure, tomorrow we will see if he's good or very good but he will never be the one of the GOAT like he said in Montreal, be serious Chad, you're not the next SRR...

people don't like dawson because they prefer brawlers and sluggers. If pernell whitaker was fighting today everyone would say he is boring too. well said brotha.

Yeah man im starting to like this guy too, hopefully the winner tommorow is the next star

i agree 100% bro, just hes not exciting enough to gain a fan base IMO

Im glad to see the Dawson fans commin out now....He's officially my top fighter now that mayweather *****ed up.........He is slightly underrated but after he whoops yes whoops Pascal I would be surprised if he doesnt shoot up to #3 p4p.
