This actually wouldn't be that bad of a fight, especially if its just a tune up for the Pascal fight later on in the year. Dawson also gets to add another belt to his collection in the process. Champions should fight champions and he needs to keep busy.
Well Tunney says that Shumenov is willing to fight Campillo a third tile, and that Erdei wants to fight for the WBC title.
But none of the European LHW's are no match for the North American counterparts.

He should not be waiting until late fall to fight Pascal, that's crazy.
I personally dislike when young fighter stay inactive.
Then his personality is one of the most boring I've seen in a while in boxing.
Dawson is fighting an opponent before fighting Pascal.
Who is Zsolt Erdei and what has he done for a shot at the best LHW in the world?
lol sadly i don't think this guy is joking.
Haye beats Fragomeni, good win.
178lb Zsolt beats Fragomeni, means nothing.

Dawson would humiliate Shumenov or Pascal. Calzaghe would've probably lost to him too. The winner of the Super Six has the best chance of taking Dawson's title.
Dawson would humiliate Pascal...that's a joke man, Dawson will have is hand full with Pascal.
dawson would end his life after 3 rounds...now a fight between dawson and campillo would be nice...but i'd like to see a few more fights with him...including his vengence match against shumenov...
Shumenov is fighting Campillo again.
Zsolt Erdei is looking for an opponent at light heavyweight. He'd take the fight with Chad Dawson in a flash, he's aiming at the WBC title right now.
LoL Erdei would lose, Dawson would take that match no problem.
I've seen both of Shumenov's fights with Campillo. IMO, he's should consider himself very, very lucky he has a belt. There was nothing controversial about Campillo getting the decision in the first fight, the very best you could have it for Shumenov was in fact a draw. Even then I find it a bit of a stretch.
Everyone knows what happened in the second fight.
If Shumenov wants to stay a "champion", his best bet is keep fighting feather fisted opponents, even then it's not a sure bet as Campillo could have taken him out in the second fight had he stepped on the gas. Anyone with decent pop or a decent pressure fighter will stop him. In both fights against Campillo, he was gassed by the 6th round or so. I know Dawson hasn't knocked someone out in years, but Shumenov would be stopped.
Yeah Dawson would beat him to a pulp, Shumenov's defense is so leaky.

excellent post. shumanov will get murked by any boxer or pressure fighter that moves his head in a big way. his punches are sooooooo telgraphed, campillo is a good boxer and he made shumenov look like a kid. i feel like he's on a bugs bunny cartoon he winds up his punches so much

I agree Shumenov should fight Campillo, if he decides not to, he should fight Dawson.
Something tells me though that Shuenov wouldn't dare fight Campillo again, but would fight Dawson thinking he could win hoping to enhance his reputation.
Shumenov is honestly an asshole for the stipulations he attached to Campillos contract, and the likely role he played in making sure he pre emptively won his belt. If he fights dawson hed get a huge payday that he doesnt deserve. so fukk him.
nobody should fight shumenov til he gives campillo a rubber match. its an absolute joke that he has a belt.
dawson wailing on this hack wont prove anything, nor will it gain him any more fans or notoriety.

:haha: :haha: :haha:
Just log off.
Are you kidding me? Do you know how much criticism Dawson has been receiving because he's constantly fighting 40+ year old boxers? Anti-Dawson fans would be all over him, although Hopkins/Dawson certainly would be better then Dawson/Shuenov
fukk shumenov. hes a piece of sh!t for the way he dicked campillo and didint even pay him until he moved on the rematch. what shady bullsh!t. he shouldnt be given anything until he gives Campillo his full purse and his fukking belt.
