This Dawson is more proven than Kessler rubbish

[Davros?]

Tested the thread says.

He beat Mundine in Austraila he also beat Beyer and Andrade and traveled to fight Calzaghe.

Adamesk people will say was dead at the weight and beat no-one at the weight. Johnson just lost to the mighty Clinton Woods.

Also how many times has Dawson traveled for a big fight?

Johnson should have at least 2 wins against Woods, and after just getting hold of a download of there 2nd fight, Johnson beat woods by a very clear decision, Johnson also knocked out Roy Jones, and beat Tarver plus a few other top guys. He is better than anyone Kessler has beat.

Being honest i dont see that Dawson is more proven than Kessler. Kessler went to Australia to beat Mundene he also beat Beyer and schooled Andrade not forgetting he went to Wales and fought infront of 55,000 he has also had 40 fights.

Dawson has has 27 fights never left the States and hold wins over Tarver and a disputed one over Johnson who lost clearly to Clinton Woods.

Dont see it, Kessler is more "proven" he has also won more titles.

Dawson is a 175 lber and Kessler is a 168 lber. its dumb to compare them.

This strikes me as a pretty silly debate. Kessler's best win is a very good one in Andrade, but... you're seriously arguing Mundine and Beyer? Mundine is one of the bigger jokes in all of the sport and Beyer can't even make it through a fight with Danny friggen Green without being hurt repeatedly. He fought admirably against Calzaghe, but by the end it was clear who the better man was. He failed that test and was not tested at all by either Mundine or Beyer. Andrade was a test in stamina and a good one, one that looks even better than since the Bute fight, but that is really it. Don't get me wrong here. Kessler is a good fighter who would pass these tests if Calzaghe didn't make him afraid of them, but he just hasn't. This is a delusional thread.

Eric Harding alone is better than Mundine/Beyer combined. I mean I know you've probably been watching boxing for about three months and have no idea who he is, but he was a very good fighter. He was beat prime Tarver and was beating him again before he got careless and he arguably gave Roy his toughest fight while he was still a god. I mean, he had a serious arm injury the whole fight and still was down only a round on one or two cards when he had to quit at the end of the 10th. He also has a win over Daniel Judah and prime Montell Griffin (who, if Harding didn't, DID give p4p king Roy his toughest fight). Besides Harding, you know Dawson schooled Adamek and Tarver (and don't kid yourself about Tarver's age, it was a style matchup that always would have bettered him) and fought at least on even terms with the perpetually underrated Johnson. Kessler's resume isn't bad, but whats the point of comparing it to someone's that it doesn't quite compare to?

What is your agenda?
