    Why don't you show some class or are you some imature keyboard warrior? In case you didn't know, Diaconu's fights havn't been really televised in the US. His competition hasn't been of the greatest caliber as his biggest fight to date was against Rico Hoye :tired . I wouldn't want to evaluate him based on what I've seen on you tube (poor picture quality and not much to look at) hence my previous statement of not having seen him. But from what I have seen he tends to not really set up his punches and lunges in. Not very good tactics to use against someone as skilled as Dawson.

    Sounds good...but Diaconu doesn't "box"; he rips your head off. If I were Dawson I would be worried and wouldn't agree to get into the ring with Diaconu unless I thought I was all that!...

    We all know Dawson can box; but can he fight?

    Diaconu is not really an elite fighter.

    My money is on Dawson.

    that being said, I hope Diaconu rips him a new *******

    :lol: This fight will NOT go to the scorecards! Chances are Diaconu is going to get KTFO, because he's not going to just sit there and box Dawson all night! He will go for the KO not matter what! What a stunning prospect, this fight!

    this is a hard fight to call, diaconu hasnt really been tested but from what ive seen of him he can box to set up his punches. dawson is a good boxer but can he handle himself in a slugfest? i dont know who would win but i wanna see it

    He was on FNF not to long ago v Hoye. 2 Months im guessing. I can give you the link if intrested, think I still might have it.

    Yes....but the kid has a lot of Power, somthing that Dawson don't have a lot of. Diaconu has a great, not good, great chance of knocking him out.

    You're handicapping this as though it would be power vs. power. AD's challenge would be too offset the much taller, longer man's jab, plus the fact that Dawson would give him movement, something else we don't know if AD can handle at that level. Additionally, Dioconu's defense after punching is open, and Dawson counters with combos.

    I hope Chad takes this bout, because -- though there's obvious danger -- I think he can shine.

    Dawson hits hard too, throws many combos per round... I predict a UD win or late round TKO for Chad... I don't think Diaconu won't stand a chance against Chad's slick boxing skills and excellent body punches...
