cong**** to dawson, very good fight, and tarver despite being surpassed in every aspect... speed, power, stamina, etc.... did very good. his defense allowed him to last 12 rounds and put that little bit of uncertainty til the end.
i hope that dawson keeps getting better from now on, and he is on the good way.Comment

I think his trainers expected him to fight more disciplined after the Glen Johnson fight. He didn't take any chances this time.
Tarver wasn't really given a chance to land that big counter punch but to be honest, it didn't seem like Tarver had much of a punch left anyway.
Dawson should work on his accuracy.Comment

Tarver's got a pretty good defense. He's just a hard target to hit cleanly as well. But I think Dawson showed that he can be disciplined for twelve and he can give and take when necessary. Plus, his speed makes opponent's hesitant.I think his trainers expected him to fight more disciplined after the Glen Johnson fight.

Hats off to Glen Johnson whose stock rises following this fight. Dawson may have to wait a while before he gets a high-profile bout.Comment

Dawson looked like he had a swollen lip.
Anyways, very good performance from Dawson, showed a bit of everything in the fight, Tarver didn't look as bad as I thought he would in defeat but he still showed his age nonetheless. Good fight.Comment
