    So what??..people have agendas around here..especially when it comes to Calzhage.

    Joe didn't do **** but slap at the air like Catwoman.

    If Johnson deserves a rematch then so does Hopkins.

      If Johnson won the WBC title from Diaconu then it will proberbly happen if Diaconu wins then Chad will face him. Erdei isn't coming out of his hole in germany. The unknown Huge Garay is there for the taking he's a weak titlest who is only there because Green retired. That's an easy win for Dawson, Hugo or Diaconu/Johnson winner is a possible match for the near future.

        They want Dawson tied up in a rematch with Johnson so they can continue to PRETEND Calzhage is the man at 175.

        Check em' out.

        They've all of a sudden become the REMATCH POLICE...lol

        They don't want Dawson to smash Diacanou either..that would take away another Euro fighter from their roster.

          I can remember when De La Hoya fought Whitaker, it was a controversial split decision, but he took the risk already and it was pointless to give the old fighter another chance even if he was the stripped champion, he was passing the torch. So let's move on to better fights with younger guys, who need to prove themselves against men like Johnson.

            Notice they aren't demanding Calzhage fight Dawson.

              I wouldn't mind seeing a rematch. The first fight was pretty good.

                yes there should be a forced rematch, johnson put it down on dawson when they fought, and dawson didn't have any kind of answer to what johnson was doing. dawson was a completely dofferent fighter against tarver than when he was in the ring with johnson, but that doesn't change the fact that dawson looked like crap that fight and johnson put it on him, only way to change that stigma is to fight again, johnson deserves it, and even though dawson basically set the pace against tarver last night johnson didn't let that happen when they fought because he was applying pressure and fighting on the inside, tarver fought a a distance making it a bit easier for dawson to look really good, which i will say i thought dawson looked really good. but johnson doesn't let fights go on the way tarver does, tarver gets too lax and doesn't work enough, johnson is as busy or busier than who he's fighting......

                i think a rematch is in order, i think it should be mandatory, the level of competition between tarver and johnson when fighting dawson was night and day, johnson took the fight to dawson, tarver was looking to land one big clean shot..........

                and i do too think that johnson beat dawson when they fought, he outpointed him and i thought that he beat dawson up too, all dawson could say was he was younger and he was glad the judges scored the fight the way they scored it, he couldn't even, and still to this day, can't defend that win with any real facts or evidence on how that fight unfolded.....


                either way, the Road Warrior deserves a rematch, i'm sure it's one of those fights that dawson doesn't want anything to do with, i'm sure he will pull out the classic hiding tactics by saying " i already beat johnson, i want to fight the others out there" when in reality he was giving that fight by bull**** judging, but a rematch is neccessary and worthy all at that same time.........

                  If Johnson deserves a rematch then so does Hopkins.
                  Yeah, dude, we are all out to get you.

                  We ALL have agendas.

                  ESPECIALLY when it comes to Calzaghe.

                    Wait... what valuable time?

                    He's young, and there are like 2 decent fighters in the division... he doesn't need to get into urgent mode to start fighting all the top level fighters, because there just aren't very many at LHW.

                      The first fight was excellent why would anyone not want to see a rematch? in any case there are very few better fighters in the division. Johnson should fight for the WBC belt and then if he wins that fight Dawson again, I had that fight a draw by the way.
