    Let me put it this way: Chad and Kessler would make for a 50/50 fight. Hopkins is all wrong and would mug Dawson. Calzaghe would overwhelm him. I could explain in detail, but I don't consider these to be even slightly risky suggestions.

          HBO is trying to use the Tarver rematch to build Dawson up for something. It's not going to be a guy like Johnson or Cloud. It'll be Kessler, Taylor, Calzaghe, or Hopkins. No one else.

            If Tarver Roy Jones 2's Dawson, you would see a third fight.

            Stranger things have happened.

              He might end up fighting some cream puffs this year since a BHop or Calzaghe fight seem unlikely.

              But getting the HBO coverage is definitely going to propel him in popularity and will open the door to bigger and better fights.

              I;m looking forward to see what happens with him.

                i think dawson should fight johnson again in a rematch and then try to bait calzaghe into fighting him

                      I think hopkins should fight lockett,and he would lose to gary leaving everybody scratching their heads and stating that styles make fights!
