dawson will win if tarver doesnt land that hail mary ko punch. other than that dawson by ud, i just cant wait to see the look on tarvers stupid ass face when he loses. only 5 more days

Tarver is one of those fighters that the public will never love, but he is entertaining at press conferences

I pick Tarver by k.o. ,Dawsons chin cant take alot. I just think that Tarver has the edge w/experience and is good with that straight left. Both southpaws, and they havent been in recently with southpaws. Its gonna interesting to see who gets going first. I predict the first round will be a boring feel out round.

It's the classic cliche of old, slow, and experienced fighter versus young, fast, and inexperienced fighter. Tarver (39) has much more experience. He's been in with the best of the best and beat quite a few of them. Dawson is young (27) and is fast, but relatively inexperienced.

Dawson is a little taller (6'3 1/2 versus 6'2) and his arms are a little bit longer (76 1/2 to 75).

The fight has a lot of potential.

The winner can lay claim to the light-heavyweight crown because if Calzaghe is stepping down if he beats RJJ. After that pay day, I bet RJJ retires if he wins too.

Tough fight to call. Glen Johnson believes Bad Chad will win it: BOXINGTALK

I'm surprised there isn't more anticipation for this fight. I am very much looking forward to it.

agree, ive been sayin that since day 1 im more excited about this fight than the jones vs calzaghe fight. i just hope nothing comes up saturday im so excited to watch this fight.

So can I assume from what Tarver said that hes teh underdog with teh bookies in thsi one. Im surprised really cuz since it was announced I favoured Tarver . As he says they are similar but hes the one with power. I wasnt impressed with Chad vs Glen but its interesting that Johnosn picks Chad in this

Defo looking forward to this one. Tarver knows how to sell a fight even if he is an idiot .

I see that Anthony Dirrell is going to be on the card as well. This will be his first fight back after battling lymphoma. He is the brother of Andre "The Matrix" Dirrell. Hopefully he bounces back to his old form, because the talk was that he was the better of the brothers, and after watching Andre's last few fights that is promising.

BCDs gonna tap that ass...

BCDs got everything to gain and nothing to loss.
He's still very young 25 I think or 26...

BCD's gonna be around for a loooong time.

If it all goes as planned and he schools "Peanut Head" Tarver.
I would love to hear him challenge the winner of RJJ-Clazaghe.

He did not look like the future of boxing in that Glen Johnson fight

Bad style match-up.

In this fight he is fighting a fighter he matches up a lot better against. With a young Tarver, the outcome may have been different, but I think Bad Chad deserves the edge with the present Tarver. Are Tarver's reflexes what they used to be? To win, Tarver needs to build up a lead by winning the first few rounds because Bad Chad fights 3 minute rounds, for 12 rounds. I doubt Bad Chad stops Tarver, but my bet is he eeks out another close, possibly controversial decision.

PBF didn't look to be the futur of boxing when he fought JLC the 1st time either but that's what good boxers do they bounce back from poor showings and do what they do...
