    I like Bad Chad, he's a solid fighter good boxing skills...but like Jermain Taylor at times he seems to fade.

    I want Tarver to fight Tavoris Cloud ......and then retire

    This was my first time seeing Chad Dawson fight and I wasn't disappointed in what I saw. He has good boxing skills, and has a strong presence that reminds me of Andre Berto at times. He did get gassed at the end of that Tarver fight, but he won without a doubt.

    Tarver on the other hand gave a pretty good showing against a younger and physically stronger fighter. Good defense, good punching, I'd like to see Tarver fight Winky Wright if Winky doesn't mind going up in weight.
    If you hear a voice within you saying that I am not a painter, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced.

    I have a few problems with Dawson

    1) When he gets inside, he goes way too far and smothers himself.

    2) When he gets his guy in trouble he doesn't follow up and allows his
    opponent to get back into the fight

    that being said his handspeed, accuracy and punch selection are phenomenal.
    I just think because of the two things I mentioned he's gonna struggle
    against elite guys. I think a rematch with Johnson should be a priority
    for him right now, he could learn a lot from that.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Lackluster performance.

    Technically I didn't see the fight

    But it sounded lackluster.

    Hopkins doesn't seem interested in Dawson. As much as I'm a fan he's cherrypicking a bit, going after Froch. I guess if anybody can cherrypick its an old dude.
