    He has all the tools to become one and his fight last night he showed the ability to stick to his game plan and overcome adversity.

    Bad Chad will be a hall of famet when its all said and done

        No but he has all the tools to become one...a win over Pascal and one career defining win could change that...if he beats an Andre Ward or Bute I think you could start the conversation...

            As of now Dawson has underachieved. Dawson has lots of talent and skills, and he proved that he can box toe to toe with Hopkins and beat him, very few can do that. He has the potential to be a HOF'er. But he still has a long way to go.
            for sure he has the potential. i think he just needs to get more energized and hungry to me he always seems kinda just going through the motions. he has to want to prove he is the best, i'm not sure he has enough belief but i could be wrong.

            i will be interested in his next fights. i think he should first rematch pascal, it's always good for resume and especially HOF consideration if you avenge your losses after a long career its almost like the first loss is discounted.

            then i would love to see a fight with cloud and if he wins that go for andre ward.

                I heard Pascal and Cloud are fighting in July, the fight hasn't been signed yet, but they are negotiating. If negotiations break down than Dawson should fight Cloud or Pascal.

                Campillo should avenge his loss against Shumenov.

                He can fight the winner of Kessler-Green on March 19.

                Andre Ward is available, but Ward needs to fight someone ASAP, and Dawson needs to rest.

                I think the best opponent for Dawson is Cloud.

                  Dawson would take Cloud to school and maybe even stop him. Cloud only has a puncher's chance.

                    Cloud? Cloud was completely outboxed by Campillo ... I would like 10X more Campillo vs Dawson.

                      When you beat a legend you become a legend, just ask Danny Green.
