No way, I cant see it. Joe has too much stamina, look at Dawson vs Johnson. Johnson didnt win because he ran out of gas, Joe seemingly has endless stamina. Not to mention Dawsons chin. I think it would be a safe fight for Joe but at the same time a pointless fight. Who has Dawson beat to merit a fight with the best LHW?

He beat a tarver who looked way more shot then roy jones jr, yet Calzaghes performance looked better against roy then Dawsons against totally shot tarver

I would probably pick Joe to win but I think Dawson would have a very good chance. He has the capacity to throw fast and accurate combinations, that is a necessity to have a shot against Calzaghe.

Very true. Dawson is not a well-known name, Joe wouldn't make a lot of money from fighting him.

I wouldn't mind seeing a rematch with Hopkins in Wales.

Tarver is age 40 and just as shot as Roy.

Roy would have won a LHW title in April?

I'd pick Calzaghe over Dawson but Dawson has a shot at winning, he's a quick guy, has good power, throws a lot of combinations and showed in his last fight that he can fight a focused fight for 12 rounds.

No offense but you picked Johnson and Tarver to beat Dawson, so I'm pretty sure everyone isn't too surprised. Clearly you have some kind of agenda.

Dawson take this.

Longer, stronger, the legs to go all 12. Glen applied the in your chest pressure and Chad fought him straight up. He worked well trying to smother Chad. Calzaghe is going to apply the pressure but he's not going to be "in-fighting". He's going to give Dawson the room to throw his shots and it's seriously going to bother Joe.

It'll bother him enough to give Calzaghe his first "L".

Dawson cant beat Calzaghe
