harikumar HBO’s World Championship Boxing, unbeaten 2-time light heavyweight champion “Bad” Chad Dawson will once again go to war with former champ/2004 fighter of the year Glen “The Road Warrior” Johnson. This will be a rematch of their highly competitive bout from April of last year, one in which many boxing observers were at odds as to who exactly should have won the bout.

Let’s go ahead and work backwards on the topic of their first encounter. Once it was all said-and-done, the bout easily became one of the most talked-about title fights of last year, due to the differing opinions from boxing fans and media alike, in regards to the scorecards. The people who appreciate aggression and power punching were claiming that Johnson was robbed, while the folks who appreciate activity and accuracy felt that Dawson was more than deserving of a victory.
When the fight was all said and done, Chad Dawson
was awarded a unanimous decision win, with scores of 116-112 across the board.
f Johnson gets his motor running in the early rounds, we may be in for an upset, as the Road Warrior has proven that he does possess KO power. In this writer’s opinion, however, Chad Dawson is too big of a “hill to climb” for Johnson at this stage of his career. I would expect more-of-the-same in this bout, with Dawson racking up points from the get-go, followed by an unsuccessful late surge by Johnson.
