glen johnson vs chad dawson 2 ?

[Boxingwizard]

yea..i see glen putting even more pressure on dawson and going for the KO..and when johnson gets hyped and ready to fight dawson better stand back a little bit. cause glen's power is underrated..im hoping for glen to win

Glen's power is not underrated, if he was a very hard hitter, he would of knocked Dawson out. He has good power though, most likely Dawson beats him convincingly this time.

I think Johnson is coming into this fight with his game face on and Dawson better be ready. I thought Glen won the first fight on clean and effective punching. To me, a guy shouldn't get credit for landing shoe shine punches of where a large majority of them land on the opponent's gloves. And that's what Dawson did. If Showtime had a compubox system like HBO has got, a lot more people would see the reality of that fight. Speaking of a compubox system, I like the new one that HBO has of where they show of where each opponent's punches landed where on the body. And we are gonna see that at the end of this fight if it goes the distance. But back to the topic. I think Johnson showed he was a better fighter than Dawson in the first fight, and I believe he will show it in this one too. To me, Dawson's only hope of winning this fight is to hope Johnson aged rapidly or hope the scorecards are generous to him like they were in the first fight. Because he isn't stopping Glen. People say Glen looked faded in his fight with Daniel Judah, but I didn't really see that. He had a good work rate and he won the fight going away. In Dawson's rematch with Tarver, I saw him take long breaks in rounds like he usually does. There were times in that fight of where Dawson went life and death with him, and he didn't put any kind of stamp on the victory in the last rounds either.

You don't think Dawson will correct his mistakes? I think he will. In the Tarver rematch, I don't think he was really motivated, and plus Tarver fought better. Dawson had the wrong gameplan he tried going for the knockout, he won convincingly and that's all that matters. Dawson looked much better when he fought Tarver the first time because he worked his ass off in the gym, in the second fight he probably didn't because he wasn't motivated.

That's a fair assessment I suppose. But do you think Glen Johnson was motivated for Daniel Judah?

This time Dawson would win without any doubt.

Antonio Tarver>>>>>Daniel Judah, you have to be at 100% or close to it to beat Tarver. Dawson was close to giving it his all, but you can tell he didn't want to fight Tarver again.

Chad Dawson will definitely give it his all against Glen Johnson. He will make sure he's 100%, fights smart, go tooth and nail, and correct his mistakes. This is a fight Dawson wants to win because he wants to prove the doubters wrong, and I know he will.

Yeah, I'll admit that Tarver is a more formidable opponent than Daniel Judah. But even still, it seemed like Dawson was gassed at times during that fight, and Tarver was hardly imposing his will on him. People say Dawson has improved since he fought Johnson, but I just don't see it. I see the same fighter I've always seen.
