    Who wins? Why? I realize this would be a step in the wrong direction for chad as far as attempting to sign a big name big money fight, but I like the match up. Cloud always comes to bang and in entertaining to watch, not to mention undefeated. I think chad would eventually wear him down and win a UD, but would be a good close fight. i believe cloud is facing glen johnson soon, which would give us a common opponet to compare the 2 fighters.

    What else is he going to do? Dawson for all his wins can't draw flies and has nobody to fight but old men with one foot into retirement. But if he takes the fight with Cloud he will win fairly wide UD. Aside from his inactivity there's nothing any of the fighters at LHW have on him.

    Dawson would outbox Cloud IMO. But I'll pick Cloud over Johnson

    Cloud is simply too green for Dawson....I think Cloud struggles with old man Johnson....should he beat Johnson then he can make a case of being able to beat Dawson but I don't see it.

    Dawson is the number 1 Light-Heavyweight in the world

    And i agree with the post above me

    Cloud is still very green and would lose in a shutt-out against Bad Chad in my opinion

    Dawson would brutalize Cloud. He's too wide open for a sharp shooter like Dawson.

    This is one of the other big names that Dawson should fight, and hopfully he will down the line. I would favor Dawson by a wide UD.

    :lol: This question gets asked about once a month. I think Dawson takes a WIDE UD. Maybe 11-1. Cloud has the power to make Dawson respect him no doubt, and Cloud could potentially score a KO. I think the most realistic outcome is Dawson by WIDE UD though because of his quickness, ring intelligence, and skills.

    Dawson is miles ahead of Cloud, He wins by very wide UD.

    Dawson is p4p #2 skill boxer in all of boxing right now. Only behind Mayweather. No one beats this guy unless they land the lucky KO punch.

    I think that's the problem, he's not a big name. The casual fan never even heard of him. I he was abig draw bad chad prolly would of already challenged him.
