~BCD comments on Calzaghe retirement~

[Kev]

A lot of the new guys coming up a showing a lot of class Berto, Dawson, Juan Manuel Lopez, Gary Russell Jr., Andrade. the list goes on of the guys coming up with class. Its a nice thing to see.

Yeah true that, you can't accuse any of them of arrogance.

Must admit though Gary Russell Jr has completely slipped my radar, who the fuck is he?

[Taeth]

A 126 pound southpaw who didn't make his weight in the Olympics, he passed out trying to make weight, then apparently the chinese medical group deemed him unfit to fight so he was kicked out of the tournament before it ever started. He has amazing speed, I wish I could show you his pro debut. His handspeed is similar to Andre Berto's but he seems to be more accurate, and more deliberate with each punch.

Just read that on fightnews about an hour ago. Good on Dawson to speak like that. Jermain Taylor even said some nice things about Calzaghe. Carl Froch was the only one who talked down on him lol.

Is he a little black guy who fought on Shobox on the undercard, yeah I did see it, on Shobox about 3 weeks ago on the undercard to that undefeated weltwerweight clash with Orlando Cruz.

Yeah he was pretty excting, very confident aggressive fighter definitely one to watch.

Nicely said by Dawson...though it does mean the end of the most likely person to beat him at 175. Its Dawsons stage now, he's a likeable fighter and he's good to watch.
