Dawson’s purse and opponent still need to be worked out but Shaw is confident that a deal will be reached with the network. The two front runners for Dawson’s opponent are super middleweight contender Librado Andrade, who is well known in Quebec, and former light heavyweight beltholder Adrian Diaconu, according to both Shaw and Schaefer.

I think Andrade is seriously being overlooked here, if Dawson comes out lame like he did against Pascal then the Mexican can beat him.
Diaconu has looked poor and Andrade would beat him. Allan Green should be boycotted.
:nonono:
he already has a belt...
LOL we can also add Allan Green to the mix for possible opponents this year since he is moving up but I hope he doesn't immediately jump at big name. I wonder since HBO doesn't have too many fights scheduled will they have an urgency to setup Cloud a date. I;m thinking Erdei will get the shot since he's with DiBella.
Dawson shouldnt come right back off a loss and fight Cloud. He can dance around Andrade to get his feet back wet. Cloud should be fighting for a belt but they all keep trying to ignore him.

I'd rather see Dawson-Diaconu. Andrade should go after Steigltz. And Cloud is the odd man out the equation and coming off a close win should be in against Erdei, Brahmer, Campillo, or Shumenov.
i like andrade this would be a good card
i like andrade also,But he should not fight dawson.It will be like the dawson-johnson rematch with dawson outboxing him.Andrade has a good chance
against diacnu tho imo.Hbo should push dawson to fight cloud.Winner of that
would fight the winner of hopkins-pascal.
