Depends how drained Adamek will look like again or how much slower Dawson would be. In the first fight Adamek hardly threw punches for the first 7-8 rounds waiting for openings and Dawson was much faster then. Right after Adamek start fighting he had Dawson on the floor so if they fight the same fight at catch-weight it will be 50/50. If Adamek actually start fighting from beginning he will KO Dawson easily in the middle rounds.
That is hard to say. I would lean toward Dawson. At this point, Adamek has only had to make 200 pounds for the last couple of years and so going lower than that will weaken him. While Dawson moving up only 15 pounds would have a better chance of keeping most of his speed and being stronger. Still a very risky move for Dawson, because I am not convinced his chin is on the level.
Dawson is a great defensive fighter. He knows he has to be or get KO'ed. He knows his chin is not the best out there. And he also knows that going up means facing bigger shots to taht chin. Adamek didn't have to be concerned about, although, I was. But he's grown very nicely into a solid CW. :bbb
Dawson has no business at CW so a rematch will be very unlikely. With that said A guy like Dawson would always give Adamek trouble.
Thats funny, cause today I was thinking if AG could whip himself into shape & get back down to about 235/238, he might get back a little handspeed. He got to work on that. Maybe he looked so slow vs Austin cause he was still tight in the 1st R.
wtf are you talking about? adamek was campaigning at lh. golota never fought below HW. get over your polish ego, dawson will always be better than adamek.
Dawson ****ed Adamek up in that fight. What I loved about that fight was the body work Chad put in. Adamek scortum suckers like to call it being weight drained even though Dawson clearly hurt him to the body many times. imo The best was when Adamek dropped Dawson with a good right hand to the chin, Dawson gets up and adamek goes for the kill, Dawson drops a body shot on him that slowed all that down!
Well adamek was champ at 175 when he fought Dawson so he did have business fighting thier. Dawson has no business fight at 200 pounds, 40 pounds heavier then he started his career. Adamek was not disiplined enough to be able to stay at LHW.
Well, you say he has no business, but he vacates second belt to go after the cash. Maybe HBO will offer them both right money, then Chad will put on weight and make this fight happen. Money rules the world
