    Or perhaps Dawson should fight Hopkins. That would be perfect following the young guns Johnson and Tarver wouldn't it? :lol1.

      Tell me how it is different?

      Both were undefeated; both were Champions; and both were considered good fighters. The slight difference actually was that Dawson beat Adamek to get his title.

      Adamek is even a bigger fighter; he has moved up to CW.

        You gotta love the Calzaghe groupies.

        Apparently Dawson only chases geriatrics and got a gift decision against an old man.

        The irony of these comments just kill me, they really do

          to be the best you have to beat the best

          but in this case the best rather sit home play guitar hero eatin canolies that fight
          Perhaps he can start taking on all comers instead of ducking out of an ordered mandatory defense. He'd rather face seniorcitizen Tarver and be stripped of his title than do the honorable thing and defend against the qualified deserving challenger Diaconu.

                Total age differences between their last 2 opponents;

                Calzaghe - 9
                Dawson - 27

                Seems like even on the oldies excuse, Dawson is by far the one beating up older guys. Looks like that one came back to bite you on the backside.

                Next.

                    At 168 Kessler wins.

                    At CW Adamek.

                    What's your point?

                      chad beats calzaghe, but thats my opinion vs. yours....can't argue opinions w/ you.......but i agree, calzaghe either fights hopkins again or dawson...OR he walks.....

                      mark my words....CALZAGHE IS NOT fighting glen johnson....WHY?????

                      there is little money, almost no reward for beating another old guy who already lost 10 times!!!! it won't prove anything.....

                      calzaghe has already stated he's taking time off, but will return if the money's right for a fight, AND if there's some YOUNG, UPSTART champion he needs to teach a lesson to.....

                      thats a quote.....what part of that reminds you of glen johnson in any way?
