    Calzaghe by decision. Too experienced, too adaptable and too good for Dawson but Dawson would have his moments though, 8-4 in rounds or something like that.

          Calzaghe, shut out. He's fought too many Chad Dawson's before. The fight wont happen, someone like a Hopkins or a Kessler or someone similar will come along, defeat Dawson and the world will say "Oh...he wasnt actually that good anyway".

            Calzaghe by a wide UD, because i hang off Calzaghe's nut! Seriously Calzaghe has a bit too much experience for Dawson as of now.

              Chad Dawson MD or possibly even SD.


              Chad's going to use his reach, power, and legs to offset Joe's movement and punch output. Your going to see nice use of the left uppercut (a punch Roy only broke out when it was too late) when ever Calzaghe get's too close.

              Joe's going to be open for Dawson's punches because he throws so much. And unlike Roy again, Chad can def PULL THE TRIGGER.

                joe doesn't give rounds away, has way better stamina, and throws more punches. Even if all those punches don't land, it gives young chad dawson something to think about. So he shells up and get defensive the whole fight, with jc winning the fight. The end

                  Joe wins this by wide decision,Dawson may give him a few problems early on until Joe figures him out then its one way traffic.

                    Okay, that's clearly not going to happen. Glen Johnson has a very underrated defense because he's always covered up, moving forward, and throwing in close. Dawson didn't just move into a corner and cover up so why would he cover up against a fighter (Calzaghe) that's going to be easier to hit?
