    Oh yeah.

    His back hurt, so he pulled out

    Then the fight was on

    Then his hand hurt, so he pulled out.

    Then he fought someone else.
    Actually Johnson also pulled out twice.........by losing to Omar Shieka and Clinton Woods

      Calzaghe was at a different stage in his career when he was 26. That said, only a fool would argue Calzaghe had accomplished more at that age. He hadn't--and was already a champ to boot. What Dawson has done/is doing is quite impressive.

          If a 168lb fighter can't stop a guy that fought MOST of his career at 135 SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THAT MOFO

            Sadly, Brewer was a step up from a lot of the guys he was fighting. But yea they should've waited for Echols (even that version)...damn the super middleweight division really ****** then lol.

                Of course, he wouldnt need to fight Brewer if Hopkins (the bloke who beat Echols) hadnt backed out of their proposed fight (not with injury btw).

                Lol@ Alts

                  So let me get this straight...he fought the loser of Echols-Brewer because Bernard Hopkins pulled out of negotiations...got it.

                    These tools are so easy to school.

                    Give American fight fans a bad name.
