    Did lacy beat Glen Johnson and the current Cruiserweight champion prior to a fight with calzaghe?

    If manfredo calls out calzaghe he'll probably get out bed then right?

    His best win arguably is Kessler, who has fought nobody but calzaghe,

    So dawson would add to his resume no question.
    Agredd 100%. He wont come back. IF he did I think it would be for Froch, which Joe would win. Easy.

    Dawson is too young and too good of a fighter for Joe who would take everything Joe would have to offer and throw right right back X 2. If grandpa HOP and Jones of 2008 can drop Joe, Dawson's speed, power and foot work would drop Joe too. Joe knows. He's not ******. He wont be back. He thinks he'll go down as a great..... so he's happy with that....

    But I agree with most. Since Hop wont fight him and Joe's "retired", Dawson should fight Johnson again and go from there.

        The thing that pisses me off bout Calzaghe is that he clearly and catergorically said that he wouldnt fight Roy because Roy was past his prime, but he went on to do so anyway?


        What a complete ***** move.
        it was a close fight. and so it should have been. p4p number 2 vs number p4p number 3 is always likely to be a close call. you say fighting jones is a ***** move? maybe so, but who the hell else was he supposed to fight? dawson? i dont think so, could he sell out a raffle? adamek? not exactly a marquee name over here.

          Dawson needs to stop playing boxing politics. I hope Dawson's next fight is in September against Glen Johnson.

            Calzaghe is retired and there is no going back for him, he wouldn't let his father down. He has endded his career undefeated and should be left alone now, no matter what people say he was a great 10 year champion and no one can take that from him!

            Just let him have a happy life now, i don't think it's fair for Dawson to start mentioning Calzaghe and getting the fans worked up the fight isn't going to happen!

              Funny but I remember 3 fights ago a 40 year old Glen Johnson BEATING Dawson from pillar to post ,hurting him in at least 3 different rounds ,getting robbed and now forgotten.Dawson since has had 2 fights with ANOTHER 40 YEAR OLD in Tarver.By the way Hopkins dominated Tarver far WORSE than Dawson.So Dawsons last 3 fights have been against 3 40 year olds.Still Calzaghe at 37 (not exectcly prime considering he turned pro at 21) gets all this crap

                If I were Dawson I would want calzaghe to stay retired. Not a big Calzaghe fan, but Dawson won't beat him.

Dawson made his HBO debut by outpointing Tarver on Saturday night in Las Vegas. The fight was the first of a two-fight deal with the network. He hopes the second will come against Bernard Hopkins or the recently retired Joe Calzaghe. [details]
                  stop calling out calz, I don't want him to come back.

                    It's time Chad Dawson fought someone his own age, like Tavoris Cloud.

                      Or at least get Froch and Dawson to fight and it must be agreed that the winner is the only one that can call out Joe. lol
