When will Chad Dawson Get His Proper Respect?

[da beatdown]

I really want to see him fight Cloud and Campillo at 175.

Right now cloud hasnt a chance. I think he'll get past johnson in a close one cuz they'll be ****in it out but If he fights chad after that that'll kill his momentum.I feel Cloud has to prove his worth. As far as Campillo I gotta do some research

The boring ass Tarver fights took some wind out of his sails, but he's still the man at light heavy.

I think inactivity is his biggest drawback. He just can't sit around and wait for big fights. Stay busy, keep winning and they will come.

What he said. It sucks he can't seem to land any eye popping matchups right now but the best way to remain relevant is to remain active and take on whoever he can get. He may not be the most exciting fighter in the world right now but I have mad respect for Dawson's skill and mastery of his style. If he keeps winning he'll eventually get what he wants.

He doesn't ever get goaded into a brawl from what I've seen. He's just too slick. He's never going to get big fights, because he'll probably be ducked the rest of his career. Everyone looks like garbage when they fight him. His main asset also happens to be his biggest drawback. It's as if he's too good for his own good. (I'd love to have that problem, BTW. LOL.)

Who is it that disrespects him? He just needs to keep doing what he's doing which is fight the guys they put in front of him and beat them. Just because some people don't think he isn't beatable doesn't mean they don't respect him.

Top 5 fighter in the world right now.

If Cloud ends up beating up Glen Johnson (and I mean beat him up, not outpoint him) then Dawson's stock should drop in my opinion because despite the fact that he beat Johnson both times, Johnson didn't have a welt on his face. And we are gonna get a look at how Cloud will do against a real opponent a week before Dawson even fights Pascal.

It would make a statement about him being a real challenger for Dawson I will give him that but as of right now, the view that he could somehow beat him shared by many on here is based off of

Just stay active and continue to win big fights. Casuals expect him to kill every opponent they put in front of him, but not all fighters do that, obviously.

[Dambala]

He's definitely one of the best right now, he's underappreciated maybe because he just don't have a crowd pleasing style like Dirrell for example. Other thing against him is that his wins has been downplayed because Johnson and Tarver were old and yes, they weren't on their prime but he just make them look older. He should go down and beat Bute.
