    Chad Dawson unless he gets KO'd. Wide decision.

    Tarver is still there for the taking. Woods fought like a stiff, it was sad.

      Chad is still a sucker for the right hand & if Tarver can consistenly jab with the right to set up the big left hand he MIGHT be able to stop Dawson, but if he doesn't catch him...Give me Dawson by clear-cut UD

        Depends which Tarver shows up. The one that showed up for Hopkins loses, the one which showed up for Jones 2/3 and Woods wins.

        I think Tarver has faster hands than Dawson.

          Tarver at his best will win but I think Dawson takes this now.

            Honestly logic should say Dawson but after his performance against Johnson a fight he won but wasnt so clear, I think Tarver has a good shot with that right jab and that right hook.
            I think that Dawson may have a suspect chin to be honest with you, not something you want to have if your fighting Tarver who can punch.

              I really think if Tarver comes in shape and focused (No Rocky movie ) i think he should be the favorite. I really think that the Hopkins fight was a result of the Rocky movie but thats another story.

                Chad Dawson ud, I had Chad losing to glen johnson but styles make fights and Tarver has a style that I believe could make Chad look like a great boxer even though I hate Chad Dawson

                  I agree with every word of that. Dawson fought the much better opponent on that last Showtime card.
