The Chad Dawson VS Antonio Tarver Live Thread

[Clegg]

Honestly...B+ might be too high...just a B.

I just don't see nothing special...if Tarver was 5 years younger he would have popped that ass I think. He's going to be just an average fighter based on the last few fights I've seen of his

He impressed me a lot in the first fight with Tarver, his combinations were fast, hard and accurate. Tonight I didn't think his performance was as good, but I'd still expect him to give Hopkins or Calzaghe a very tough fight.

If he can make 168 like people are saying, then I think there are some good matchups for him there.

I think Dawson is one of the 10 best boxers in the world right now, so I would have him higher than B personally.

buddy is an idiot lol.

Tarver would have had a better chance tonight without that idiot McGirt in his corner.

Glen johnson II?

that and Tavoris Cloud are the only fights I'd be interested in seeing him in. I seriously doubt after that performance Hopkins would fight him. The only way I could see hopkins taking the fight is if Dawson agreed to something crazy like a 70/30 split.

Dawson committed a mortal sin. He did not wish all the mom's Happy Mother's day tomorrow. For shame!!!!

glen johnson and tarver if they were mid 30s chad wood be forgotten already

I like dude...he seems like a good cat ..but he doesnt have KO pop and personality... he needs to take lessons from bhop

Antonio..considering he used to be a crackhead and started so late has done very well.

Yeah to get Hopkins he would sure have to give up alot of the money, ashame he isn't a big draw really.

Dawson seemed a little unmotivated fight, but did enough to win.

[I Got Bummed]

i dont know what may was talking about when he said dawson was p4p #1.

he's garbaged compares to floyd.

nah, floyd ain't all that kid

floyd is a great judge of boxers, that's how he always manages to avoid the good ones and instead fight baldomir etc.

[Pullcounter]

i told ya'll tarver would do better.

tarver is a good champ, give dawson a break, he's no pacquiao; he's more like pbf.

[The Hammer]

Dawson needs to fight his mandatory Tavoris Cloud now or he'll be stripped of another title.

There's several light heavyweights who might do well against Dawson: Cloud, Diaconu, Pascal and Shumenov - and of course Bernard Hopkins.

I think Chad would beat old Glen Johnson in a rematch though.
