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!!
Gonna call bullshit on this, Johnson is a tough fight for anyone, he won't clam up like Manfredo, his output will put to shame what Hopkins and Jones did, and he's a cagey old man. I still think Calzaghe would win on points, but saying it would be easy is ridiculous.
