  • HEHEHE ADAMEK PRZEJEBAŁ TĄ WALKĘ I UCIEKŁ DO CRUISER LESZCZ Z GILOWIC

  • Adamek lose only 1 time !!!! Tomek is god fighter

  • This is what the real Dawson is capable of doing when he's Hungry.

    Sadly this Dawson failed to show up against Pascal and got beat.

    If he finds this same hunger again he will knock out Pascal in a rematch.

    I understand why Calzaghe,Hopkins wanted no part of Dawson coz this type of performance scared them off.

    He will be back coz he aint no Jeff Lacy and that's a fact.

    His Ring skills are beyond doubt,he just needs to rediscover his hunger again.

  • @lemigod haha, you're judging a guys greatness by a round of action?

    Calzaghe and hopkins would kill this guy.

    Thats what sets aside champions like Calzaghe, he always has the hunger to win and do well.

    Saying he needs to find hunger again is saying he isnt a proffesional and a great champion to let himself go.

  • @lemigod no

  • @lemigod You are exactly right. Best comment on the fight I have heard so far. you know your boxing. This Dawson did not show up vs. pascal, so he got beat. Win like a Champ and lose like a Champ. ThAt is what Pascal said.

  • calazaghe woud fuck dawson up

  • xaxaaxxaxaax

  • An you should see Dawson fight AUG 14 its go be a good one on HBO if you have it.

  • Floyd Jr's skill vs Dawson's skill? which do you pick?

  • @jbeebrylle duh floyd, i mean dawson is very skillful. But floyd is the greatest boxing out there. but dawson sexy. Floyd has speed, his smart in the ring, and he has the best defence and counter punching i ever seen.

  • @lilsweeney16 lol, the smartest thing Floyd did was duck Manny so he don't get exposed.

  • @hawkermustang No Floyd is smart. Why would he fight a unfair fight. Manny is on steroids. When he fought Cotto did you know he got his ear drum busted. That is so painful. An instead of going to the doctors or stopping the fight. Afterwards he goes singing like are you kidding me. Look back at some of Manny old fights see how lil he was, now how fucking huge he is. As soon as he takes a drug test a real one not none of that bs. then floyd a beat his ass like he do everybdy else.

  • @lilsweeney16

    Lmao Manny is on steroids ? this is not a fact so why are you talking smack? Saying that proves that you ride on Mayweather dick because when roger came out and said that with no evidence every mayweather dickrider rode it harder. Manny has never been tested for steroids. Manny has now agreed to blood testing so why is there no comment from mayweather? because he is scared he thought manny will never accept the test but now that manny has floyd has no comment, hes running

  • @masterhien First off i aint talking smack. And i wish i was riding mayweather dick. people just mad that floyd is the best. manny has lose more than once. you cant say that for floyd. and manny struggled with juan marquiz or whatever his name is. floyd beat him 12 rounds straight even with him drinking his piss. manny dont want nothing with floyd. people cant stand a person who talk big shit and back it up. thats how mayweather is.

  • @lilsweeney16

    Obviously manny had controversial matches with Marquez but now your talking how Floyd beat him 12 straight round, Are you serious? A bloated Marquez forced up in weight, Mayweather was overweighted and broked the agreement in weight he was suppose to come in which was each pound he came over cost him 150k but he didn't care. Please don't talk that bullshit. Now your saying Manny doesn't want it? When mayweather has been silent? Hmmmm i wonder who doesn't want it..

  • @masterhien I think this is the funniest thing in the world . that people really think he is gonna lose a fight . i dont care who it is as long as there in a fair fight mayweather will never lose EVER. Manny go be just like mosley. the reason he fighting is for money that he go get not because he think he go win. Im not saying manny broke cause aint he something big in his country. not just like a fight hero i mean like in politics wise.

  • @lilsweeney16

    You avoided what i said about marquez cause you know its true. Listen am a Boxing Fan the fight i want to see is Manny Vs Mayweather, This is a Big Fight, Your a mayweather fanboy simply by saying he will never lose Ever, In Boxing anything could Happen Mayweather is a Human like you and me. How can mayweather claimed to be the best when you see in a video exposing himself by saying We not fighting to show whos the best? WTF he said that at the time because he avoided margarito..

  • @masterhien no im a fangirl and it dont matter what you say im never gonna think mayweather is running from manny.

  • Nie twierdzę że nie leżał, chodziło mi o to, że kiedy Dawson uderzył w brzuch Adamek chciał zrobić unik i się poślizgnął i nie powinno się tego zaliczać jako knockdown

  • Check out Philadelphia new up coming knockout Boxer ( Anthony Abbruzzese )

  • Only people who know nothing about boxing question Joe Calzaghe's record. It makes me laugh, jus accept it he's undefeated and couldnt be beat

  • @LLAdam2k8 Anybody can be beat.

  • @LLAdam2k8 He should of fought Dawson. Dawson had challenged him before he retired. I must say calzaghe is a beast he defeated quite a few big names. He's probably better than anyone in the super 6 maybe. And his resume is quite good he beat kessler, lacey, hopkins, and jones. But he should of fought Dawson then called it quits.

  • Those bodyshots were crazy ... Chad Dawson is gonna rule the LHW division for a long time ... The boy has too much skills and athleticism

  • @pro818 I think this guy could do well against Wlad Klitchsko.

  • @hmoob7 Lol ..I don't know about that ..Wlad is like 6'7" compared to Chad's 6'3"

    Wlad is Too big ... But Chad has way more skills than Wlad

  • Dowson ogólnie był lepszy, ale waga półciężka nie była dla adamka naturalna. Naturalne było CW, teraz do HW trochę dopompował ale też sobie świetnie radzi. Oby tak dalej, powodzenia Tomek!

    Ale faktem jest to że mimo zbijania wagi to zdobył pas WBC w półcięzkiej i chwała mu za to.

  • szkoda ze Adamek przegral ta walke... mogl ja wygrac, chyba za bardzo sie nie przygotowywal do niej i zabardzo mu sie niechcialo wygrac tej walki...

  • Chad Dawson teraz nie miałby najmniejszych szans z Adamkiem. KO w 1 rundzie w wykonaniu Adamka.

  • yo tam lezal w rewanzu z paulem,takie deski jak z koziej dupy tromba wtedy byly...lezal to np. bangs he he

  • Lezal z Briggsem, lezal z Dawsonem

  • Dawson taki kurwa czarny że się z tłem zlewa!

  • haha dajcie teraz adamkowi tego dawnsona :) minute mu daje :)

  • Ty ciole adamek nigdy na dechach nie leżał !!!

  • Leżał z walce rewanżowej z Briggsem ;)

  • @cezarek1994 jak nie leżał.. przeciaż Brigs go posadził na dupę, a i wcześniej leżał jeszcze z jakimś bodajże rumunem we wcześniejszej fazie kariery. Deski z Dowsonem to po potknięciu były więc tego można nie liczyć.

  • @cezarek1994 ja rozumiem że znaleźli się fanatycy boksu od walki Adamek-Gołota, ale trochę poznajcie historie a potem piszcie.

  • @cezarek1994

    jak to nie !! leżał z Briggsem i Dawsonem ty cioto

  • @cezarek1994

    Leżał. W tej walce w siódmej rundzie.

  • i see what chad problem is , he not going for the kill! this guy is ready to go, and dawson not taking him out. he needs to work on that, but sat he will beat johnson again

  • uh, dawsons the one that got knocked down lol

  • nigdzie nie mozna znalezc calej walki, ani zadnego przypadku gdzie adamek lezał na dechach, a takie były:( fani sukcesu?

  • new gen chad leadind the way.

  • Is isn't the most relevant round of the fight.

  • new heaven,Ct

  • represent

  • inoo wa ur sayinn man...the thing is ye...dawson has fought sum very good people...and made them look normal..let me give u two examples...1.tarver..u can say w.e u want about tarver but he beat glen,jones,harding,woods and he got schooled..2.adamek..chad hurt him and beat him all over...the guy went on to destroy the top crusisers..question is dawsons chin but hey he been down agianst powerful punchers but not badly hurt..top fighter is dawson and williaams,kirkland

  • this shows why calzaghe dont want chad

  • u right man fuck em all , chad is the new mayweather but more effective super reflexes extreme control calm comosed and confident he is the best top dog in the game 4 now , i fight almost the same style and trust me as a boxer i can tell u chad movements are computer robot precise economy and light but effective , mayweather said chad is the best cant agree anymore , please watch chad fight in slow motionu will c he is a boxing god . peace 4 all

  • Adamek lost that fight because Buddy McGirt was trying to change his boxing style. Now Tomasz is number one in cruiserweight and he is training with Andrzej Gmitruk again.

  • chaddy got on his bike in round 12. he didn't want anymore of adamek's power. i'd like to see a rematch

  • UFC taking over boxing??? that might have been the case a year or two ago but ever since the second half of 08 and the beginning of 09 we have seen nothing but GREAT FIGHTS. AND HBO IS DOING A GREAT THING BY PUTTING ALL THE GREAT FIGHTS ON REGULAR TV AND ONLY THE CHAMPIONSHIP FIGHTS ON PPV. IM TELLING YOU BOXING IS HERE TO STAY!!

  • boxing will always be here to stay. the difference is getting mainstream attention. the boxing fans will continue to be boxing fans but boxing will go through ups and downs as in popularity. if boxing wants a growing audience it has to do somthing different though

  • very true but in the recent years it was more evident that boxing was "declining". but its true that it will have its up and downs...hopefully not it wont be as bad as it was in the past lol

  • it has me wondering now. who do u think will be the poster boy for boxing now that oscar id done. boxing needs a star. i wonder who will b the main draw. do u have any ideas???

  • honestly im not so sure of it right now. there are a plethora of great up and coming fighters but few possess the fan base the DLH has. This cant be determined on a matter of skill but rather that of charisma..that person has to have something that transcends boxing and will draw the attention of mainstream fans...im not really sure which fighter has that just yet. who knows but with as many great fighters and fights coming out so far the possibilities are endless

  • preach on

  • UFC ain't taking over nothing, Boxing just had to move over because white American legacy in boxing is Zip. No champions, mixed martial arts gave white boys a chance to show their toughness because boxing you need your legs and rhythem and it favor blacks more. Calzaghe, tough fighter but, he didn't want Chad, no excuse. Calzaghe is only 36 yrs old and he look great against Jones.

  • You're an idiot pseudo fight fan, haul ass to UFC.

  • wot does any comments in here have to do with chad dawson??????????????

  • we have the Calzhage European Fan Club present, with Cheerleaders and Tumblers....

  • When Eubanks became wbo champ, again, after getting shredded by Nigel, here comes Calzhage, fighting for the wbo title..lol

    He did'nt want any parts of the WBC/WBA contenders & champions

    He would get shredded, then ultimately he would have to fight Nigel Benn, Nunn or Liles, just to garner the belt. Thats NOT including the 1,2 & 3 contenders for those belts!

    Calzhage did'nt want any part of that, so he sat in Wales.

  • "When Eubanks became wbo champ, again, after getting shredded by Nigel"

    Benn never beat Eubank, are you sure you're not meaning Steve Collins?

    Nigel Benns last fight was a year before Calzaghe beat Eubank, not sure where you obtain your boxing 'facts' but they're very wrong.

  • @stuart fighters dont quit coming OFF the stool in the 14th round

    The Doctor came to Frazier's corner NOT Ali's, the referee had to assist Frazier to his corner at the end of the 13th!

    Your delusional!

    Nigel Benn was WBC champ & beat Eubanks during the same time Calzhage was a contender!

    Read WBC/WBA list and compare that to the wbo , Those are the fighters Calzhage would have had to fight to get those WBC/ WBA belts!

    All Tier 1 fighters!

    Speak What You Know NOT What You Think

  • To the cheerleader for Henry Cooper

    Ali knocked Liston OUT with ONE punch! In Liston's PRIME!

    Ali knocked out Cleveland Williams the hardest punching heavyweight of that time.

    He almost killed Joe Frazier in Manila, Joe said 'No...No...shakin his head..No...No..No...'

    Now why would he have to 'cheat' to knock Cooper's eyeball out of its socket?

  • ps muhammad ali wanted to quit on his stool in thriller in manilla but was saved as frazier corner pulled frazier out obviously not knowing ali was about to quit, frazier was begging for the fight to continue ali was begging to quit.

  • cos cooper laid him out at the end of the round and alis corner men ripped his gloves to buy him time cos ali was all over the place

  • take a peep at the Super Middleweights during Calazhage time...

    Nigel Benn he never fought him! I wonder why. ;)

    MIchael Nunn, Matthew Hilton, the list goes on, Calzhage NEVER fought them!

    Calzhage sat back, as most euros do and wait for the tigers to destroy each other.

    Look at Calzhage's list of fighters he fought....

    Benn, Nunn, Hilton, Liles and others were all in the Super Middle bangin each other, while Calzhage was ringside or at home in Wales eating popcorn, watchin pay per view.

  • calazaghe unified the titles? Who was Calzhage in 2003?

    Who fought in the light heavy division AFTER Bob Foster? Spinks?

    Look at B'Hops fights...between 2001 and 2004...where was Calzhage?

    Why would he fight Calzhage for 2 million LESS than he would get with those he fought between 2001 & 2004.

    Come on dude, Calzhage is NOT all that.....in boxing circles.....

  • i wish calzaghe would of taken this fight with dawson, theyre made for each other, but i dont think dawson would be able to keep up with a 37 year old calzaghes work rate.

  • Lennox 'Im Soft' Lewis management knew Tyson in his prime would smoke Lewis, so they waited. Let Tyson cleanup the division, blow his self up, then Lennox could walk in, after the scrambling for the WBC/WBA heavyweight title, subsides.

    You even had 50+ year old Foreman coming back kickin butts! Holyfield swolled up on steroids fighting heavyweight after Tyson blew himself up...

  • "Lennox 'Im Soft' Lewis management knew Tyson in his prime would smoke Lewis, so they waited."

    Just like that chicken shit James Degale is avoiding Kelly Pavlik, right???

  • @ muizzmc

    It's called sarcasm chump!

    You see Lewis was busy winning his olympic gold and starting out as a pro when Tyson was in his prime.

    To say Lewis WAS avoiding a prime Tyson is the same as saying Degale IS avoiding a prime Pavlik.

    Re-read the comment I was replying to, you'll get it eventually.

  • my god ur stupid

  • IBO, IBC and the rest...are meaningless belts

    WBC/WBA the true belts, Calzhage REFUSED to Fight B'Hop, Jones and the rest, ranked in the Top Tier by the WBC/WBA for YEARS!

    Lennox 'Im Soft' Lewis, managed well, ran from Tyson BEFORE jail time. If Raheem could smoke Lennox, what do you think would have happened If Tyson got to him?

    Donald Curry?..what? WBC/WBA/IBC Champ, 400+ amatuer fights! again, Honeyghan caught Curry, after he beatup everyone, on his way down. Breland, handled him

  • hopkins pulled out of a fight with joe back in 2003 because he wanted an extra 2 million, hopkins fought bums for about 10 years until he got beat twice by taylor, the fought the smallest of fighters. calzaghe did unify the division dont forget.

  • uuh...fighters dont need cheerleaders...

    again, the pattern holds true with european fighters, 'catch them when their young or old'...Calzhage is a 2 or 3rd tier fighter with a inflated record of fighting 3rd tier and below fighters.....

    Hopkins..Old....Jones...Old...­.Lacy...Young....

    Did I see someone suggest Ali 'cheated' Cooper? Ali hit Cooper so hard and sharp, the skin around Coopers orbital socket was completely lacerated! His eyeball was exposed! See Liston and Frazier pics!

  • he did cheat cooper. he was knocked down before the bell and went into his corner and tampered with his glove so someone had to re do his gloves, which gave him an extra minute. watch it.

  • lol

    Calzhage obviously did NOT want to deal with Johnson, Winkie or Dawson....

    These guys are 'Top Tier' fighters, they are 'machines'

    Calzhage is a lower tier fighter, who happened to be in the right place at the right time, and remain in Europe. That's what happens in boxing, they grab a title and run back to europe.

    When the top tier fighters want their belts back, they retire.

  • dont be so stupid dawson has done nothing near what calzaghes done he beat a past it glen johnson who was beaten by omar sheika when johnson was in his prime, joe battered him. dawson also beat a past it tarver, calzaghe beat a clearly still dangerous hopkins and beat him, plus 10 former or current world champions good opponents. hopkins also backed out of a fight in 2002 which is a FACT, hes also beat current world title holders in there prime kessler lacy and won title against eubank

  • @stuart..relax...kessler..thro­w him out..eubanks?..who is that?..Lacy was in his prime PRIOR to throwing his shoulder out

    end of story

  • nigel benn and the rest you mention were not around at the same time as calzaghe when calzaghe became champion against eubank you dont know eubank haha whatever, i am relaxed smuuvebrotha, think what you like to think...sugar ray leonard said he was one of the best of all time though

  • What makes "Johnson, Winkie or Dawson" top tier fighters and not Calzaghe? Is it because their from your side of the pond and Calzaghe's not?

    Wake up man! America has lost boxings crown, that's why UFC is taking over.

  • lol UFC?..your kidding right? UFC? you been watching too much TV!

    A UFC CHAMPION fighter cant last ONE round with a good amateur boxer!

    Its just 'Grappling', whoopeedoo

    I dont know what Boxing crowns are left, the boxing talent is not what it used to be, due to the corrupt nature of the sport. We all know who makes the sport, and its NOT european fighters. Lets keep it real here.

    Just look at Calzhage's list of foes in his career, look who he fought, then come talk to me

  • I don't watch UFC, but as I understand it UFC is taking over from boxing in America.

  • Calzaghe would destroy Dawson

  • Adamek was sick that night, he was terrible.

  • a pavlik kessler fight would be a good one but i think pavlik would kill kessler. Pavlik love fighters who dont move to much so he can light them up.

  • Joe is smart he sat & waited 4 yrs & yrs waitn 4 his oppnents across da sea 2 fall. He saw how old hopkins was getting & how bad rj was boxn and how weak da divisons are. If he is a true champ he should face bhop now. X addmitted 2 just cruzn in fights so he can cotain some longgevity in da sport but now bhop has relize that da comp has picked up, so u all saw wat he did 2 pavlik. Don't get me wrong joe is not a bad fighter hes a average bxr but his style is plzn 2 refs & judges its overwelming.

  • hopkins backed out of a fight in 2002 with calzaghe this is a fact, look it up, the deal was done and hopkins demanded double the money from showtime at the last minute and wanted it within 24 hours even then he never waited 24 hours. hopkins is still good when he fought him and calzaghe won clearly....now american fighters are ducking carl froch but in a few yrs time lets see u try and turn it around, if jermain taylor dont fight him he is ducking him simple as that

  • Mate past their primes calzaghs 36 himself jones was lyke 2 years older than him

    plus joe tried to fight hopkins,johnson,jones and couple of years ago and each of them pussied out

  • yea but jones is a falling boxer calzaghe knew that and thars why he wanted to fight him...

    and no thats%100 bullshit jones challenged every1 in his prime it came to a point that no one through middle weight-light heavy wanted a piece of him and thats why he went heavy weight to beat ruiz IDIOT hate it when people talk shit and act like its facts

  • @shankthatup Calzaghe was 36 When He fought Jones and the last bout of his Career. I think if they would have fought in their primes JOe would have still beaten Roy.

  • kessler would ruin this guy no prob's

  • Kessler is one dimensional, we all could see it when Calzaghe whooped his ass. Dawson is a p4p fighter. Kessler doesn't belong in a ring with Dawson. You should stick to boxing a little more, then you would know what you're talking about.

  • i quessing you didnt watch the calzaghe kessler fight then. beacuse it was far from a ass wooping. trust me kessler would destroy this dude he is far from one dimensional he's a class boxer checkout his last few fights before talking shit again

  • Hahaha, It's easy to look good against nobodies. Haussler and, what was his name again, Sartison. LOL Kessler is a straight up fighter going in a straight line when going backwards. That's what we call one dimensional. He's not a bad fighter. He's just average, where Dawson is p4p. I really hope thjis fight happens even though they're not in the same weight class (and not in the same class either LOL) so that you see what happens to him when he's up against the best fighters boxing has to offer.

  • i like mikkel kessler also, but ,make no mistake, bad chad would fuck up mik and joe. he's the best light heavy weight out.

  • dawson is not p4p until hes proven it, what hes done so far is good but past it tarver and glen johnson dont make u in p4p calzaghe wasnt in p4p after beating eubank. dawson has done nothing

  • I would like 2 see if Kessler has the balls 2 come 2 up 2 175 to fight Chad Dawson!!!

  • I would love to see that. Dawson knocks his out.

  • Thanks for the post showtime!

    Showtime > HBO boxing.

  • Now,after to have seen Dawson's fights,i am sure that against calzaghe,it would be a great fight.Joe can loose.

  • Calzaghe is almost 37 years old and just fighting his peers (Roy Jones is 40 and Hopkins 43) who he should have got the chance to fight years ago. There was no money in these fights then as to Roy Jones Jr and Hopkins Calzaghe was an unknown but still a relative risk to fight. Why would they put themselves on the line when there's no money in it.

  • very true i wish u could enlighten edubb121 and some other guys.peoples ignorance these days will make them lose out on appreciating great fighters of their time.

  • i could care less where kessler is from. the simple fact is that he wont fight over in the US, has never fought in the US and has a record padded with nothing but denmark fighters, 1 german, andrade, and Joe. he sucks. he went to the uk and got whipped by calzaghe for 12 rounds. if i have little respect for calzaghe wat makes you think i give a damn about kessler's background? you are right about 1 thing. im not well versed when it comes to euro trash boxers with padded records. y waste time??

  • Kessler has never fought in the US, but he will, he wants to, his next fight is reportedly in the US, we just don't know who the opponent is yet. Should come up soon.

  • calzaghe beat roy because roy let him win. he had the ear muffs on 2 out 3 minutes in every round after round 1. tell calzaghe stop going after old men and beat a current prime superstar. he wont do it. he wouldnt have beat roy in his prime and he wouldnt have beat hopkins in his prime. he didnt want pavlik because he didnt think he could handle him and then bhop punished pavlik. he's a BUM!

  • no calzaghe cut him gud u dumb ass

  • if you could spell good properly i would agree with you but since you have no grasp of the english language and how to properly convey it, shut up.

  • edubb121,how old are u?your stupidity can only be that of a teenager.joe picked bhop coz he was the ring magazine champ and jones was just a person joe always wanted to fight to see off his career.chad is too slow so is pavlik and the best fighter available in the last two years for joe waskessler.but u being american u've never seen kessler fight so u will jus go on spitting your bullshit which carries no weight.get real and stop wrapping the american flag round your dick

  • yea ive seen kessler fight. not impressed. he can stay in the uk and continue to fight nobodies for all i care. you uk guys that have no sense of boxing claim all your top fighters are great when they arent. i dont care where the fighter is from. if hes good ill say hes good. calzaghe has a great skill set but hes fought NOBODY. old men, a polished bum, and a guy so overrated that his nickname was left hook. lennox lewis is the best out the uk. he came to the US and beat top opposition. joe sux

  • U have actually seen Kessler fight yet u think hes from the uk... yea right. And the "old bum" Hopkins obliterated ur overhyped white american Pavlik. Dawson is good but not great, Americas last chance to regain controll in the middle n LH divisions, which makes him overhyped too.

  • never said dawson was great floyd jr said he was the best p4p and i dont agree. never called bhop an old bum. lacy is the bum. bhop is just old. pavlik is 1 dimensional with a great chin. bhop proved that. just because bhop beat him doesnt automatically give calzaghe the win over pavlik. it doesnt make calzaghe look any better because he didnt even fight the same way against calzaghe. you plan your work and work your plan. 2 different plans for 2 different fighters. 1 worked 1 didnt that simple.

  • the fact that u think kessler is british just ruins your whole argument ans shows that you are not well versed wen it comes to european fighters.read a little more into boxing buddy.listen to the real boxing critics and u will understand a little more

  • calzaghe will knock him out that fight will happen don kings money and connections

  • the only thing chad is capable of doing to calzaghe is snatching his chain

  • You must be on crack...lol!

  • heres 1 for you to chew on...you americans have legends we have legend killers! lol

  • who? Calzaghe? That's the only one I can recall.

  • Lennox Lewis beat up Tyson pretty good! Hatton fair one got outclassed by PBF out of weight! But beats any hyped up American so-called superstar! and your greatest fight Mo Ali cheated in the fight against Cooper after being knock to fu*k! that superstar Donald Curry was beat up by Lyold Honeyghan! face it our country at even the size of California yet we produced! Yours is what about 350mill?? and you produced shit like Lacy, and that challenger guy?

  • and yet your uk superstar calzaghe takes the win over lacy as a big accomplishment. real boxing fans in the US knew lacy wasnt shit. hatton got destroyed because he wasnt smart enough, uk only claim to fam is lennox lewis. calzaghe aint even as high as lennox. uk has great boxers there but they stay in the uk, fight weak competition and never expand past the uk. its a lot harder to go through boxing here with a perfect record.

  • *applause*

    this man knows boxing

  • The USA has no stars anymore. Lennox was good but Calzaghe is better, and why should the champ go to the USA to prove himself?.Mayweather doesn't, half the other US boxers just about leave state.

    Hatton lost when he went up a weight,he rules at 140.I don't like Haye but he's the next best thing in the heavies.

    Calzaghe would and hopefully will decide to smash up Dawson, he's not good enough to beat Joe, you can't watch this and think Joe couldn't deal with this guy? he'd be all over him.

  • the us has a lot of stars and some on the rise. and when i talk about the us i dont mean united states born i mean that they fight in the usa and that this is their main camp. bhop is still a star, andre berto is a star, nate campbell, vernon forrest, paul williams, steve cunningham, and eventho he lost, kelly pavlik is a star. hatton lost when he went up in weight against a great US BOXER and beat an american version of prince naseem and that took an american trainer to break his habits.

  • yeah i guess calz is better hen only fights good fighters past their primes

  • Joe's got too high a work rate for this guy.

    I hope the fight goes ahead though, it'd be good for boxing.

  • dawson is a good fighter,couldnt see him beating calzaghe though

  • Yeah according to who ! Dawson's got a good shot of beating Joe , and I guess Calzaghe 's got power then . I know

  • this lad is shit, no power, joe calzaghe would murder him.

  • Lmao no power??? and Calzaghe has power????? he couldnt even knock down old ass ROY and roy clocked his melon! He's never fought a natural light heavyweight nor one with with the speed and size and craftiness of dawson..Is Calz up to the challenge? the boxing worlds begging will he answer or run from the inevitable???

  • asshole,stupid cunt and u pay for your internet to mouth stupid shit like this.god u a numb nut for sure.wat is a natural light heavy and u think ass chad has speed.u must be a turtle then to think his fast.

  • u angry?? whats stupid about what i said?? what is a natural light heavy weight?? it isnt Bernard HOpkins..Or Roy Jones...Dawson has fought his entire career at LHW and has beat the BEST!!..and Chad Doesn't have speed??????? XD and im the idiot....Have a nice day lol

  • Joe Calzaghe would beat the showboat out of Dawson!

  • lol dawson is so much bigger and stronger than anyone calzaghe has ever fough. calzaghe needs to go back down to middleweight. dawson will overpower him easily.

  • i don't think so. dawson is amazing but calzaghe is a special fighter. i think he would have owned rjj in his prime.

  • calzaghes special in that he fights nobodies for years and then waits to fight hopkins and jones when they are washed up to boost his credibility.holds the wbo belt which wasnt regarded very high for years and then takes nearly ten years of beating bums to get a unification fight.thats real special

  • where are the racist white people at? hmm, thats what i thought!

  • why are you looking for it fuck face, you should stick your racist stereotypes to white americans. Take a trip and see the world, your point of view seems to come from your backyard.

  • Any by the way, Adamek moved up a weight class and is fighting for the title this december. So keep your fuckin mouth shut, Adamek said the guys are too fast for him in this weight class and he's too slow because of his higher weight. Shut the fuck up since you don't know boxing, youre a piece of shit that looks for racism in everything.

  • well he shouldn't of moved up in weight u fucking retard..adamek is a bitch ass polak.

  • Why shouldn't of he if he is fighting for the title in december. you should know what youre talking about not just flap your gums.

  • joe calzaghe would kill this little shit and u know.

  • Busy watching reruns of the BIG FISH fights such as calzaghe vs hopkins and calzaghe vs roy jones jnr, i guess.

  • chad dawson will tear tavern apart yo.. this is the 9th round and chad's throwing some strong quick punches, when tavern was on the 9th round lookd like he was swinging randomly, tavern wont last in the ring wit dawson.

  • tavern = tarver? If so then I agree with you...

  • I just hope that dawson send this MOMMY to retirement.

  • he's not ready for tavern and i don't even like tavern.sorry newhaven he's gonna loose real quick i give him 3 rounds if that one.

  • You need to watch the whole Dawson vs Adamek fight to see what Dawson is all about, don't just judge him from this round, watch the entire fight. I'll send a link to the Dawson-Adamek fight and you judge for yourself if you think Dawson is ready. Go ahead and send me a private message to your e-mail and I'll send you the link.

  • I have every fight of Dawson ever since he beat Ian Gardner on showtime lol, so of course i have seen this entire fight about 16 times. Tarver has slowed down, and hasn't beat any young champions for a few years. How will he beat young champion that's a better boxer than he is, faster, punches harder and just has more weaponry. The only way Tarver can wins is if he gets lucky and lands a crazy punch, and counting against a weak chin will not always work, just look at Wlad Klitscho.

  • Dawson was ready for Tarver even when he beat Eric Harding and that was when he was more vulnerable. Tarver is good but not great. The only way he has of winning is knocking Dawson out. I personally favor the young, fresher and more skilled fighter. Dawson has a shaky chin but Tarver will actually have to catch it flush and i can't see that, hes doesn't have a pressure style. Dawson by wide UD.

  • I saw the dawson fighting with johnson , come on you must be blind if you dont see that this is not a champ , Diaconu will knock him out , just hope we will see this fight soon you will see that I was right

  • If chad had more of a name id say fight calzaghe, but with calzaghe having 1 fight left after hopkins i really cant see it happening. maybe he could step down when calzaghe moves on an take over the super mids

  • Miranda vs Dawson, why not? Just have Edison put on some weight and watch all the money roll in. Come on showtime make it happen.

  • It would be great, but it's unlikely to happen. Above that, Dawson says himself that he's not a natural LH, but a SM.

  • Dawson would beat Tarver and Woods, so would Adamek in fact.

  • Indeed. I doubt he is earning that much considering the effort he has put into his career but he deserves every cent.

  • Yep it was a bad one. Did you see the road warrior fight or the 2 against Gonzalez?

    he is never going to set the world on fire but he has improved a lot.

  • Diconu has only a puncher's chance against Dawson. Dawson has the height, movement, and hand speed adavantage.

  • Dawson is a pussy not giving the no 1 contender Adrian Diaconu the title shot after he got injured training for Dawson in september 2007.instead he goes and gives a shot to a 40 year old has-been,way past his prime Glen Johnson who was a great fighter but now he is not a real challenge.Before he gave a shot to the Diaconu replacement Epifanio Mendoza before that to Jesus Ruiz!!! what a pusssy,their bums.give Diaconu a shot

  • Who has Diaconu fight? At least Dawson beat a very good champ in Adamek.

  • Dawson would destroy Woods.

  • Clinton woods is a joke...Hell Roy had him crying like a baby...The ref had to step him and save his ass.
