    Yeah that's right I made a thread about it.. Let's keep it real if it was Dawson cancelling and pulling out of the fight alot of you people on here that I seen hyping Diaconu like he was some world beater would be saying Dawson was scared and ducking Diaconu!! Diaconus people knew he was gonna lose so they wanna make some money off him first before throwing him into the lions. He's DUCKING Dawson I don't wanna hear it! LOL :rofl

    I have not heard Diaconu's story as of yet, so let's hold up on the ducking theories for now. WBA champ Stipe Drews did however duck Chad for the right to become Adamek's mandatory last year, when the WBC ordered the fight.

    Drews and Universum pulled out of the fight three times, and then ended up facing 41 year old Branco for the WBA belt. That's ducking.

    You're right on one thing though, if it was the champion pulling out we'd never hear the end of it. :deal

    LOL yeah i havent heard the reason either but I just figured I'd post that because if it was the other way around then right away people would be posting that Dawson was ducking the guy. Anyway I'm getting sick and tired of all these cancellations.. What the hell is going on?

    :good

    Sucks, this was going to be a pretty good fight. It'll probably make the fight sell better the next time they face off, if there is one.

    Two days ago the two fighters where posing for pictures and all was well with the world.Now this.Diacanou just blew the opportunity and now Dawson can get along with his career.There will probably be a replacement put in to save the show,if I know how King works.:-(

    Vargas v Mayorga
    Marquez v Juarez
    Klitschko v McCline

    and now Dawson v Diaconu

    I don't think Diaconu is ducking Dawson though

    Is it so unusual that fights get cancelled? People get sick, hurt in training, ect.It is easy to speculate , and when speculating its easy to interject what you'd like to believe.I don't think many fighters get so scared that they duck out of huge oppertunities.They wouldn't be boxers in the first place.

    I doubt this is a ducking situation. Diaconu targeted this belt and worked at beating contenders to become Dawson's mandatory, not to mention that this would have been his biggest payday by far, and when you're not making big bucks, you're usually inclined to take a fight, even if you think you'll lose, just ot get paid. I doubt he'd pull out at the last minute just because he pussied out.
