I like both guys, but I've got to roll with Johnson on this one even though I know it appears that Dawson has already got Johnson's number. I would love it if Cloud got a shot at Dawson, but I just can't turn my back on a guy I've supported for years. If Cloud loses to Johnson, I doubt that Dawson will ever fight him. But then again, it's possible I suppose since Chad is going after a guy coming off a shoulder injury and lost not too long ago to a Supermiddleweight who is viewed as a weak link in the tournament.
    You are a pure, unabashed hater.

      That rare type you're talking about, it doesn't exist. Glen is tough, he has a great chin, but he can be hurt anytime by the right punch, just like anyone who ever laced a pair of gloves. There is no doubt he was seriously hurt when the fight was stopped against B-Hop with the accumulation of punishment. But il will take one hell of a punch(er) to hurt him.
      marvin hagler, bernard hopkins, glen johnson and others. They are all cut from the same cloth. Tough mofo's that don't seem to get hurt.

Mack, more than a decade younger, controlled the action for the first two rounds until Johnson was able to figure him out in the third round and later TKO him in the 6th of their IBF light heavyweight title eliminator. Johnson talks about the fight and also a potential showdown with Tavoris Cloud for the IBF title on March 27th.

              It's more about me wanting to see the right fights than being a hater. Look, I actually hope Johnson wins against Cloud like I mentioned before because I'm not a fair-weathered fan. I won't turn my back on Johnson for some rising contender like Cloud. But if Cloud ends up winning the fight, I guarantee you that Dawson's fans will come up with every excuse in the book of why Chad shouldn't fight him. I don't think Glen can beat Tavoris either.

                Marvin Hagler was hurt by Hearns to the point that he had to clinch. How many times have you seen Hagler clinch ?

                B-Hop has been buzzed a couple of times too. I wouldn't say seriously hurt, but seriously shaken. Taylor was one to do it. Calzaghe, surprisingly, hurt his chin a bit too. And btw, B-Hop doesn't have a proven chin like Hagler, Holyfield or Glen. People think he has a great chin, but it's just because he hides (protects) it well.

                It looked as if Frazier couldn't be hurt no matter the amount of punishment before he encountered the man with enough power to hurt him. Foreman of course.

                My point is just to underline the fact that some people think some boxers are made of steel and can't be hurt, but everyone's chin is made of bones and flesh. Granite chin = myth.

                    what fights were you watching? seriously shaken by taylor and calzaghe? if those wild haymakers taylor winged actually landed they probably would have hurt but they didn't. are you referring to the lampley "huge right hand from taylor!" and the punch flew over hopkins head as he fell into the ropes off balance? yea that wind is a killer.

                    i also didn't see where he was hurt from the 2 or 3 clean punches calzaghe landed. but i think you just like making things up

                      I favor Cloud to beat another veteran here.
