    and how great could these guys be
    Chad Dawson
    Paul Williams
    Mikkel Kessler
    Kelly Pavlik
    Antonio Tarver = Good
    Roy Jones Jr = Amazing
    Bernard Hopkins = Great

    Chad Dawson = Great
    Paul Williams = Great
    Mikkel Kessler = Good
    Kelly Pavlik = Good
    Change Dawson to "Good" and I'd agree with that assesment
    BIG H the 2nd question was how great could those last 4 fighters be, i don't think Chad Dawson is great at the moment. But i think he has the potiental to be great.

    Yeh I know mate, I just don't think he will become "Great"

    I think Paul Williams could become "Great" and probably will!

    Tarver - Consider him a 1 hit wonder over a declining Jones.
    Roy Jones - the best athlete to ever put on a pair of gloves but he could have fought a few more people here and there. He could have pressed the action more to KO some people.
    Hopkins - Over acheiver, who didnt have the athleticism of a Jones but always came in in top shape and was smart. Not afraid to stink the joint out to pot shot and get a win (hence why he was relatively unpopular up until a few years ago)


    Chad Dawson - I dont see Dawson being much more than a good fighter.

    Paul Williams - Could be great if he stays at lower weight classes. I dont think he can be a dominant MW.

    Mikkel Kessler - Good fighter. Outclassed in his big step up and now inactive
    Kelly Pavlik - Good Fighter - a little one dimensional to be great.
