    It'd be nice to take a Mayweather-Castillo I, Morales-Espadas I, etc. off of Dawson's record by winning a rematch handily, but it is really up to him.

    I'd like to see it, because I heard Chad did fix a lot of the leaks last night and could probably take this one down.

    Hell, the division isn't that deep anyway, he might as well rematch him... it's not like he has a ton of young contenders to fight in the division anyway...

    It's really just Johnson, Calzaghe, Erdei and Diaconu that I can think of right now.

        yes, but chad would win the rematch much easier i think. i was pulling for glen, but chad will outbox him this time without slugging it out with him at any point....

          I also had Johnson beating him, by 1/2 rounds I forget now. But fair and square.

          That result has completely changed the direction of both those careers and others. It's not one of those things, it's a robbery in a big sporting event.

          Johnson is unlikely to do much better than he did in the first fight even as early as 6 months down the road, especially at his age. Dawson has shown he's only getting better, the beating he got has helped grind him into a tougher fighter. So if they rematch I think Dawsons got it. Lovely, so Johnson beats him in the first one and doesnt get it as deserved. In the rematch Dawsons better as a result of Johnsons schooling, and who loses out again, Johnson. Feel major sorry for the guy but he's in a very difficult position he shouldn't be in imo, he could basically be in Dawsons position right now and isn't.

            I would love to see a rematch between Dawson and Johnson.

            Not only was it a great fight to watch but would, If Dawson could win more convincingly erase the controversy from their close first fight.

              I don't think you can force Dawson into anything, since the guy dropped his title rather than face a mandatory. Being that the first fight was a good, close one, I know I'd like to see a rematch.

                They should demand a rematch there too.

                Joe didn't land any scoring punches and do nearly enuff to take Hopkin's Title.

                If Johson-Dawson II must happen..then so should Hopkins-Calzhage.

                  I did a poll and a lot more people thought Johnson deserved it than they did Hopkins.

                    Why do you Calzhage fans want Dawson tied-up in a rematch??

                    Afraid he might call out the Welsh Rabbit??

                    Joe was supposed to fight Johnson himself,but contracted a case of the yips and punked out.

                    Calzhage fans should be the last ones to second guess a fighter's career choices..being that Joe has made so many shady moves himself.

                      Think about it, Dawson is getting better while Johnson is ageing. Pointless fight, Dawson is wasting valuable time.
