I've been touting Dawson since the Ian Gardner fight on ShoBox. That was the unofficial "New England" title and Gardner nearly started crying in the ring.
Calzaghe is much better risk/reward than Diaconu, surely that must be obvious to you. Calzaghe beat Lacy, Kessler, Bhops and RJJ, assuming this fight is on the cards. He is a legend. An ATG. Just because the risk bit is slightly higher, doesn't mean that the risk/reward ratio is higher, since the reward of beating Calzaghe is much greater than the reward of beating Diaconu. What's so hard to understand?:huh
It seems you are less confident about Adi's chances against Dawson, now that you are touting Lucian more.
I agree about Adi's risk/reward ratio being bigger. But since Chad is taking bigger risks, it means he is not scared of fighting Diaconu...he is just being a businessman and taking bigger fights.
I always said that Dawson should be fvorite against Adi.Bute isn't LHW so it ain't worth mentioning.....for now.
I've liked him ever since he schooled Adamek. But ya man impressed the hell outta me last night.....didn't expect a total shutout like that.
I won't say schooled, he almost got stopped in round 10. He did beat him on points legitimately though.
**** yeah. I needed a new favorite fighter after Mayweather retired and Dawson Impresses me alot. plus he got me paid last night, I'll definitely put money on him again.
True that, he did have a bad falling out with big Floyd though...I have to say Mayweather Sr. gave him a big edge in the Adamek fight.
