As I have seen Chad Dawson fight, I can't shake it from my head that he is EXACTLY like Jermain Taylor in his inconsitencey. Dawson will look amazing in one round and then look like he just started boxing in another round....it's quite frustrating.
I think one of the things that hurts him the most is he'll throw an amazing combination and then jump out and wait. He allows his opponents to get back in the fight. He has phenomenal handspeed and combination accuracy, I think he could be getting more stoppages and knockdowns if he would not jump out and wait so much.
I think Dawson sometimes has a tendancy to stand back and admire his own work too, but when he works he's awesome. I disagree that he's like Taylor. I saw the 2nd Tarver fight last night for the first time and I couldn't understand what the fuss was about. I gave Tarver 3 rounds at best. Dawson made him miss and closed out the show. I see him decisioning Johnson again.
