    I said Dawson by UD is the logical choice, but Dawson has some bad habits that might cost him the fight.

    Below is why I picked Dawson. I can understand when you say logical choice because of how one fighter is more recognised.

    Haha you never know people may believe me now when I said a fast 2 handed fighter like Erdei would beat Dawson and had fought harder fights, just against fighters that arent as well known

    I think I've actually changed my mind about Cloud/Dawson. I think a beast who throws 90 punches a round, and hits like a truck, might just beat the crap out of Bad Chad.

    I would say its a good bet, the only thing now is everyone else thinks it as well at the moment.
    Cloud fights with alot of aggression that would probably shut Dawson down.

    this is what being an elite poster on esb is all about, cutting through the hbo and ring magazine brainwashing and identifying an american hype job who is ready to get exposed by a fighter who recieves no recognition for his achievements because he isn't american.

    bailey always uses irrefutable scientific facts when debating but his opinions get washed under the carpet by posters who are full of ignorance and have no real knowledge about any boxing that doesn't occur stateside.

    it makes a mockery of complete and utter idiots like closet oscar sexual popkins who just wants to bum american fighters to try and fit in on esb. popkins placing dawson at number 3 on the p4p list was a complete joke. popkins and his awful opinions on boxing were exposed just as much as dawson was last night.

    Thankyou Headbanger. Your right some choose not to listen. HBO & The Ring have America totally brainwashed, but dont worry a gap in the P4P ratings has been made for A Dirrells arrival, straight in at #3

    Thanks. My reasons are below
    I wouldnt call Dawson a hype job with a serious face but, knew he wasnt what was being made out, when you look at who he fought and when. G Johnson now thats a hype job with so many losses same as Tarver, yet Dawson looked lucky against Johnson first time, which sent alarm bells, leading to the decision of Pascal being the first young world class non weight drained fighter to fight Dawson, and from what id seen of Dawson I knew he wouldnt like aggression against a strong young fighter

    Good call, I definitely didn't see that coming. I still believe Dawson wins the rematch.

    Thankyou, the reasons for picking Pascal are detailed above. Hopefully they will have a tune up fight each to assess them both again, but Dawson really needs to fight a young world class fighter who dosent have weight probs etc to get an idea of how he will do. Diaconu who Pascal beat would be a good fight for Dawson to find his level, and Pascal could fight a rated opponent who wouldnt be a massive threat, someone like G Johnson

    Good call Bailey (and Headgiver)

    I thought Dawson would ud Pascal.

    I still think he's the better fighter. But something's missing...
