    Dawson should move to Cruiser, there's plenty of people to fight there. Not that well known people mind you but there is some good fighter coming through in the cruiser weight at the moment.

    he could take on Huck, Cunningham, Green, Herbie, Enzo, Lebedev and so on..

    It would be a mistake if he moves down just so he can get some names, after the super six some of the fighters will move up anway.

      He is a LHW anyway you look at it.
      how come did he come into camp at 178 lbs then to fight Tarver the first time ????? (see pre-fight press conference)

      btw, he probably weighed 190 lbs WITH ALL HIS CLOTHES ON AND SHOES

        I hope Calzaghe comes back and looks good against B-Hop, so Chad can whip his ass.

          Who's clothes weigh almost 15lbs?

          C'mon if he was a SMW he would be fighting there. No way do I believe he is coming in just 3lbs over the LHW limit on FN.

            I would agree with Dawson moving down to 168, but he's a pretty big LHW. 6'3 1/2 with a 76" reach, Dawson isn't a small LHW at all. He even looked bigger then Adamek and Adamek is now a heavyweight.

            Dawson really needs to fight the top boxers in the LHW division before even thinking about going down to 168. Instead he's taking his sweet time waiting for Pascal.

                  Dawson needs to fight period. He needs to be more active or else he wont matter at any weight because nobody will fight him

                    If Johnson gets rid of Cloud, and beats him or is competitive with him to the point of where everybody will want to see a rematch of that fight, I wouldn't have a huge gripe with Dawson moving down to 168. But on the flip side, if Cloud ends up beating Johnson real convincingly, and Dawson moves down, ***** move in my view. It all depends on what's gonna happen though. Cloud and Dawson will be the #1 and #2 at 175 if they win their respective fights and then a Ring champ can be crowned.

                    With all that said, I hope Johnson can beat Cloud so he can keep feeding his family. That weighs on me more than wanting to see some compeitition for Chad and I already know that Chad has Glen's number.

                      Then do it. He could EASILY be number 1 P4P with the amount of comp at 168 if he gets through most of them unscathed.
