Dawson can't be compared to Calzaghe....just yet

[Technical_Skill]

The double standard is humorous yes but this is NSB. What else is new. Alas, the 26yr old Dawson is well ahead of schedule, although for some reason certain people seem to hate that.

On a serious level now, some of these British fans of boxing are so f.ucking ******ed its beyond a joke, crawling up some fighters ass cos of where he comes from, can you imagine if chad dawson was british? you'd have 25,000 working clas morons coming over to support him.

Actually I stated Calzaghe wouldnt have to fight Brewer (or whoever he was fighting at the time) if Hopkins hadnt backed out of the fight. Absolutely true.......unlike most of what you say lol.

Can you explain this logic?

Chad fights like a punk with zero character, i doubt even the Pavlik loons would follow him.

Yeah but dont you get it?

Hopkins asking for more money to fight calzaghe, then calling him out when he was 43 years old and fighting him= ducking

Calzaghe pulling out of 2 fights with glen johnson, then not fighting him whilst other greats such as Bika and Manfredo = not ducking.

Pulling out through injury and pulling out through asking for an unrealistic sum of money are now the considered the same thing.

indeed.

Btw which greats did Hopkins fight instead? Oh yeah........Morrade Hakkar and Carl Daniels.

Yes very

There are plenty of good posters from there. They just haven't made it to this thread yet . But yeah, it's a little tiring to hear every perfect excuse as to why Calzaghe's resume is so barren in his 20's but for other fighters it's ducking and running.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Yeah but he actually fought bika?

what happened when he pulled of two fights with johnson?

Did he fight him?
Or did he ignore it and stay at 168 to fight the 'greats' in that division

He was signed to. Then Johnson bottled it against Clinton Woods.

How many greats did Hopkins beat at 160.

End of you.

Ban control a real life tard here.

True. Hopkins pissed away many opportunities those years. More important than the Calzaghe bout - which was never even got to contracts being drawn - he threw away the opportunity to fight Roy Jones, a rematch he claimed he wanted for years. But I guess in the end, Hopkins got the last laugh.

The people who are whining he should fight...Tavoris Cloud.

What's familiar, Dirk?
