    Kellerman: That's why in modern boxing you see so few exchanges in the middle of the ring. Guys are worried about slipping on the ring logos. :patsch:patsch:patsch:patsch

    He gets paid for this. :twisted::twisted::twisted::twisted::twisted:

    68-65 Dawson now. Good to hear Max talk about Erdei (and Michalczewski) as the lineal champs of the division. Makes up a bit for his horrible question to B-Hop earlier.

    I like reading your posts but instead of posting just the scorecard could you say who you think won that round? Somthing like "10-9 Dawson" or "Dawson Round" or somthing....I cant be ****ed backtracking your posts to figure out who won that round...especially now since the site is getting much slower.

    Kellerman's in especially **** form tonight for sure.

    Chad Dawson is the most frustrating fighter to watch I've ever seen

    Round 8

    Hard lefts from Dawson. Diaconu may be getting bothered by the cumulative heavy handedness of Dawson now. Diaconu is knocked into the ropes with 2 and 3 punch straight combos. Diaconu is still trying to find his spots, not retreating. Dawson drops his hands and watches, then pulls back and slips a few high-arcing shots from Diaconu. Dawson comes forward behind his right jab and then starts to sandbag left uppercuts in. Holding and hitting from Dawson.

    78-74 Dawson

    Both fighters letting punches go to open the round, but nothing to effective lands for either. Good flurry from Chad. Diaconu misses with some solid shots. Good counter left uppercut from Chad. Chad bullies Diaconu to the ropes, but does nothing effective after. Diaconu having a hard time landing anything this round. Solid right from Chad. Close round but I think Chad edged it.

    78-74 Chad

    Depends what you mean by frustrating. He can press on the gas a lot more for sure, but there are more annoying fighters who just run and fight negative or as a spoiler.

    I've never seen Dawson go orthodox in a fight so much, he fights
    with no intensity but he's clearly winning so hey

    Amazing how those two have gone separate ways since then.

    Dawson is just a class above Diacanou.. which we all knew.. you just think he should be that much better that he's frustrating.

    He's pretty bad tonight, I must admit.
