Calzaghe claims boxing is losing steam because he coudn't sell 300,000 ppv's and in this fight he could spend six months promoting it because he could promote it before their fight and after their fight.
My scorecard had Johnson ahead, but it was a close fight, and as I said the official decision went to Dawson. I don't see where waiting would help, because it's possible at this point Calzaghe could retire at any point.
Here was my scorecard.

1 Dawson 10-9
2 Dawson 10-9
3 Johnson 10-9
4 Johnson 10-9
5 Johnson 10-9
6 Dawson 10-9
7 Dawson 10-9
8 Dawson 10-9
9 Dawson 10-9
10 Johnson 10-9
11 Johnson 10-9
12 Johnson 10-9

114-114

spot on donaire, 114-114 was exactly how i and a lot of observers scored that.

Johnson-Calzaghe would be joes easiest payday since manfredo.

Johnson is a come forward, middle of the ring brawler. JC is 46-0 because he is soooo good against these types of opponents and simply fights these guys at angles and in aggresive consistent flurrys.

The fight wont happen because it just isnt attractive enough to persuade either HBO or Calzaghe, but if it was to it would have 120-108 calzaghe written all over it!!
