    Dawson is doing what Calzaghe did....fighting the old washed up guy for more money instead of facing the prime more dangerous opponent.
    After Tarver, who will there be?

      I hope he fights Tarver next, Anything apart from Tarver means he ducked Diaconu.

          This means the rematch with johnson will be put on hold as well, Hopefully we will see diaconou vs johnson for the belt.

            he has ages to fight diaconu... they're both young!
            if doesn't fight tarver this next he might never get another chance

            might aswell take the money and fight an established fighter like tarver

            who is probably rated by most as better than diaconu anyways

                How is he a coward? Didn't Diaconu make up some lame injury less than two weeks before the last time they were going to fight? Now, he's supposed to throw away a big money Tarver fight just so he can fight Diaconu off tv without any guarantee that Diaconu won't pull the same thing?

                Best case scenario is that Johnson beats Diaconu and Dawson beats Tarver. Then we can have the Dawson-Johnson rematch.

                  It'll probably be the Johnson rematch if Johnson beats Diaconu.
