    Big hard right hand by Diaconu, looks like he stunned Dawson for a bit there. Diaconu takes the round but the fight is still 116-112 Dawson.

    Again I ask, does anyone know the size of this ring, maybe it's just the red color but it looks damn big.

    Counter right from Chad. Good left uppercut as Diaconu leaned. Straight left from Chad. Another solid left from Chad. Diaconu letting his hands go, finally landed a good right. Good right from Diaconu. Good left uppercut from Chad. Both fighters starting to land solid shots. Flurry from Chad. A right over the top from Dawson. Dawson gets two lefts in. Alot of these shots have good power on them. Both fighters ended the fight swinging. Good effort. Chad's fight.

    117-111 Bad Chad Dawson

    Round 12

    Diaconu is claiming the center of the ring and launching right hands, but he isn't making an effort to walk Dawson down and go for the KO. Dawson darts in and out pot shotting. He is caught while digging a right hook to the body. CAUGHT AGAIN BY A RIGHT HAND! That woke Dawson right up. He straightens up and backs off, then clinches as Diaconu keeps coming. Another big right by Diaconu. Dawson flurries. Dawson throws an exclamatory right hook as he backs out of the pocket. Diaconu has half a minute left to get something done. Dawson hits him with a left uppercut and then clinches. Diaconu is swarming his way in and touching Dawson up a bit but nothing flush enough to score the knockout. Dawson is dispensing just enough counters to maintain some breathing room.

    10-9 Diaconu

    116-112 Dawson

    It's a shame too. Sr has no business training guys like Hatton or anything like that, but he was perfect for Dawson, who KNEW Dawson's chin was crap & focused on defense. He seemed to be in better shape since SR had him chopping wood & all that old school ****.

    Yeah, not a fan of Steward. Think he's a little overrated. Chad doesn't really have a lot of flaws for Steward to fix. Steward likes fighters to be tall effective jabbing fighters. Chad might do better with a more offensive minded coach. It's weird how he tries mustering urgency in his fighters to throw more punches. But he wants busyness, and not really variety. He doesn't do well with non-assertive tall fighters that don't punch crazy hard.

    I think fighters should show some class and ackowledge each other at the end of a fight, not just walk away.
