How good is Chad Dawson?

[ElTerribleMorales]

So far he is one of the least exciting champions I have ever seen. I also don't have any idea about his personality, charisma. So, I would bet my money on him in most imaginable fights, but considering that boxing is a show, I would say he is pretty bad .

boxing is a sport not a show, if you want a show go watch WWE

If you want sports go watch track and field or amateur boxing.
Anyway, no matter how you call it, pay per view $ give unbiasad estimate how hot Chad Dawson is. People won't pay 29,99$ for "sports" - they want blood, knock downs, drama, humilitations, intelligent and funny trash talk, unbeatable legends, beasts and missing ears, good guys vs. evil guys, rags to riches stories, David vs Goliat, etc.

Chad is exciting if you appreciate skill, its not fair to say that he isn't exciting in the ring when he has had exciting fights.

The one problem I've had with him which he fixed in his last fight is mental lapses, he seems to have too many lull moments when he is in control of a fight. Either than that and maybe some fine tuning of his defense, I think he's one of hte best in the world.

Going to sound unfair but when your fighting rematches off passable wins in the first place it says something.He and camp should have done everything in power to avoid 40 yr old Tarver rematch.I believe hes taken a step sideways rather than forward.Has all the skill but he coasts....he settles and gets too content in ring.Have to agree with 'charisma' point.As much as it cheapens and seems shallow to life in the ring...networks want "umpf" factor.Someone knocking heads as well as skilled.He needs to have a fire lit under him less he gets caught on the ropes one day .
