ICB's RBR Of Chad Dawson vs Antonio Tarver

[leftylee]

Dawson by UD. Tarver is grabage. He can make it tricky for Clinton Woods with his style. But Woods is even more garbage. Dawson is the more fresher, hungrier fighter. Let's remember a past it B-Hop took Tarver to school.

LOL. what you said is true. but dont forget tarver has that one punch ko power. but as i see it, that if it goes to a decision Chad will get the win, which i hopes happen. and the reason bhop took tarver to skool is because tarver couldnt land a damn thing all night, and chad aint no bhop.

valid point, I think the fight will be close early with Dawson dominating the second half of the fight en route to a wide decision.

A past it B hop who would have also taken Chad Dawson and Glen Johnson to school in all likeliness. Not sure who to pick in this one really, Dawson did look vulnerable against Johnson who definetly doesn't crack as hard as Tarver so I lean towards milk dud. Not really sure how the styles will play out but there's no question Tarver is stopping him if he lands the right punch.

I have never cheered for Tarver. But on this I will. The last Johnson fight bummed me out.

[rjj tszyu]

I'm going for Dawson by decision mainly because of Tarvers increasing years!

This fight has so many questions, the main one for me is Dawsons chin. He is much faster & has the better reflexes so I don't see Tarver being able to out box Chad. But if Tarver can move his hands he can have success & if he can land a big left hand like the one he caught Jones with in the second fight that'll be the fight!

But I think Bad Chad keeps his range & boxes, scoring with nice counters

[Rantcatrat]

Bad Chad by decision. I am a big fan of Bad Chad. Recall that Bad Chad beat Ademak and Ademak ain't no joke. Chad had problems with Glen Johnson's bulldogesque style, but Tarver won't crowd Dawson like Johnson did. Dawson will use his superior footwork and handspeed to outpoint Tarver.

[hfahrenheit]

Tarver has to be one of my least favorite boxers... I haven't seen Dawson fight, but I hope that he beats Taver worse than B-Hop did.

ok fella's i have to admit i'm totally bias on this one, i can't stand tarver so i picked him to loose by double K.O. I hope dawson Ko's his ass, tarver wakes up in the locker room and dawson comes around the corner in a bathtowel and knocks his ass out again. I met dawson at arco arena last year while at his mendoza fight, i should have shoved some brass knuckes in his pocket like the burger king dude.

Conventional wisdom says BCD to dominate an old Tarver BUT Antonio is probably one of the most confident fighters of this era and a proven clutch performer he is not a shop worn 39 either.. Tarver also has other intangibles as well.. Like I said everyone likes to see Tarver dribbled around the ring like a basketball, but I'm feeling that Dawson is gonna be getting his chin checked for the KO by Tarver.
