    It was a very clean right hand and Dawson was up quickly and cogent. That's why I said there's a little question; it's not clear his chin is less than good.

    But Adamek was reluctant to even throw until that point. Dawson would be fast for a middleweight.
    wow, he's that fast, faster than allen green? i'm gonna get this fight off Pugilist, i want to see this kid

      Peder when do you think Kessler will start fighting at 175? 168 is a bit of a bastard division in America anyway. At 175 he could fight one of the old guys, a Euroslugger like Adamek, or in the best case Chad Dawson. Kessler has the right frame for that.
      As long as Calzaghe is around, I dont think he want to leave 168 - he wants Calzaghe above anybody.
      He claims to be comfortable at smw right now, but he could be forced to it by HBO

        I agree Kessler wants Calzaghe badly. But he also has to be realistic. If it appears to be impossible to get Calzaghe into the ring, he should NOT waste his career waitnig for it.
        Unless B-Hop, Taylor or Winky wants to fight him at 168 (I absolutely can't imagine they will), perhaps he might as well be off to LHW sooner rather than later. If he could grab Berrios belt first i wouldn't mind - but that's a lot of sanctioning fees to be paying.
        If he stays at 168 Bute and Mundine seems the biggest threats now. Brits would say Froch. I don't rate him, but would appreciate ANYONE (including Kessler) shutting him up.
