This fight is to be finalized on Monday for June 8th on HBO. What yall think of this fight and who do you got? And yes this is on the same day as Maidana vs Lopez
First reaction is Dawson by decision but who really knows. Both guys seem to be going in opposite directions. Question is; Has Stevenson upward arch surpassed Dawson's downard one? Stevenson is coming up to 175, right?
I'm going with a surprise TKO by Stevenson. That will set another huge fight with the winner of Bute vs Pascal.
Huge Chad fan, but taking a beating while dehydrated is a recipe for disaster. If he can pull the trigger, Chad outboxes him wide. If not, Stevenson by KO...and rather early.
Dawson to stop Stevenson late, Chad punches harder than people give him credit for, and Stevenson doesnt have the best of chins.
Dawson TKO. Stevenson is wide open and easy to read. While watching rematch I was thinking it wasn't by chance Boone beat him the first time around. It's at 175 so Dawson will not have any weight issues
stevenson baffle's me. He has so much punching talent that it is hard to believe that no one has ever shown this guy how to defend himself. He fights so wide open that you have to assume any top level fighter is going to eventually hit the guy on the chin. And once that happens its game set and match.
If Dawson had a fighters mentality he could stop him but he will probably be lazy and just box and not taking any risks at all
