    what part of ANTONIO TARVER HAS A REMATCH CLAUSE IN THE CONTRACT is so hard to understand?????

    I really wish Calzaghe would have fought Dawson but what happens happen. Dawson should stay focused and not take Antonio for granted, because that would be a fatal mistake. But if he stays as focused as he was the first time, then he could be as dominant or even more dominant as he was the first time. Everything is on his side and the only way that Tarver has of winning is by a lucky knockout, and there is no many times you can have THAT much luck before in runs out.
    if chad looks as good or even better than he did in the first fight, that fight CAN still happen. remember calzaghe said he was taking about 6 months off anyways. so that puts us in the june-july timeframe. but that's IF calzaghe plans to continue fighting.....

    chad was the champ when he fought johnson. johnson had no leverage to get a rematch clause. chad and tarver fought for tarver's belt, so as champion, tarver put a rematch clause in the contract. did anybody here actually WATCH the johnson-dawson fight??? johnson hurt chad in rounds 10& 11 i think, but he couldn't finish him. it was mainly chads youth an inexperience that got him into trouble b/c the rest of the fight he CLEARLY outboxed glen johnson. hurting a guy for two rounds, but losing the rest of the fight doesn't give you a decision, nor warrant a rematch. chad fights smarter, he shuts glen johnson's slow ass out anyways.

    if tarver comes in counter punching this fight could look totally different. i see tarver making adjustments but he should still be a decisive underdog here.he thought he was going to come in and blow dawson away being dominant (not his fight). he will look better this time but probably still wont win.

    problem is, tarver HAD NO SUCCESS in the first fight. he tried to lead, but dawson counterpunched, and was too fast and threw too many punches for tarver to do anything. then tarver TRIED to counter punch, but the problem was so many punches were coming at him so fast from dawson, tarver COULDN'T do anything. personally tarver will try to go "all out" in a rematch, because tacticly, he's too old and slow to fight dawson. like somebody said, the only way tarver wins is by KO. he lands a good punch, dawson fires 6 back at him. he has to catch dawson slipping, but i don't see that happening....as long as dawson doesn't come in "looking" to KO tarver, and make a mistake, this fight will be a worse beatdown than the first, cuz tarver aint getting any younger....

    maybe b/c ppl acutally know who the **** tarver and dawson are. nobody knows a ****ing froch......foreigners want US tv time, maybe they'll start coming here to fight, instead of waiting till they're damn near 40 fights into a career, then expecting ppl to just "throw" them some expsure.....

      no respect for dawson taking this fight, rematch clause or not, it's a useless fight, it's a nothing fight and at the very least it should be a rematch against johnson.......


      what did tarver do to deserve another shot!?!?! his fight with dawson was cut and dry that tarver lost, there is no reason for a rematch between tarver and dawson, that fight wasn't even close. whereas the johnson fight was closer and a bit on the robbery side, because i just like many others, thought that johnson won that fight, i had johnson winning by 3 rounds............


      anywho, it's a bull**** fight, tarver doesn't deserve another shot at a title, not until he earns it at least and certainly not from his last performance, and johnson is being avoided like the plague. trver isnt even that big of a name either, it's not like he's going to bring big money to the table.


      fight johnson chad, quit hiding from The Road Warrior.................

        What a joke...but the joke is on JC and BHop cause they won't fight Dawson. I don't C the point in NOT fighting Tarver because the IBF is why he is taking this fight. But if u look at tha big picture HBO will get him in the ring with either BHop or JC. So whip this wack magic man and then whip on JC and BHop and i wish yall would stop saying he should fight GJohnson....say that same BS to the man who was scared to fight him....yup...JC. or holla at RJ and tell him to fight him for that rematch.

                  This fight may be garbage, but that doesn't mean people aren't going to watch. I can understand Tarver having a rematch clause, but I don't know why he thinks a second fight is going to be any different. He won't be any younger or faster the second time around, and Dawson is probably only now entering his prime. Unless Dawson gets overconfident from the previous fight and doesn't train as hard, I think Bad Chad KO's the Magic Man.

                      Pointless. But then again I said that to the Vasquez-Marquez rematch too.
