    Well last time I checked everybody is tied up. Ward,AA,Froch,Pascal.

    Maybe Dawson before then, coming off a loss.

    Apparently it's too hard to fight more than twice or three times a year for "title holding" boxers nowadays. If they do fight more often, they usually get injured and have to sit out another 8-12 months.

    Yes but he can't now. He just has to wait. The other top smw's he has either beat, or are hurt. So basically its Kelly or Chad Dawson.

    HBO chose the date. Boxing is a business man. He says he'll fight three times in 2011. If that happens, it's ok.

    Can't see Dawson getting down to 168 but maybe he can. I'd also be very surprised if Pavlik agreed to go to Quebec and jump to 168.
