Tavoris cloud vs Chad dawson

Chad Dawson can beat everyone on the Ring's top 10 light heavyweight list one after another, all on the same day if he is focused, that's how talented I think he is.

I agree...except on the part where u said Cloud was more athletic than Chad...no, way...Chad is an ATHLETE...believe me...

I don't see cloud winning this fight as he is not on the level of dawson. Cloud is rawer and more atletic than dawson but dawson has a lot more skill and is not intimidated by cloud in the least. I would pull for cloud though very exciting to watch fighter.

Hmm maybe I was a little off, it was a while ago when I read about it. I guess it was actually sparring? Team Cloud believes there’s another reason why Dawson won’t fight Cloud and it doesn’t have anything to do with purse structures or name recognition. “Back in 2001,” Cloud’s head trainer Al Bonanni explained, “Dawson and Cloud were both outstanding amateurs. They sparred in 2001 at the U.S. Olympic training camp. Tavoris floored Dawson and hurt his eye. After that, Dawson was moved down to 168 pounds, instead of competing with Cloud at 175. Dawson still fears Tavoris Cloud and that’s why he won’t get in the ring with him. We’re willing to fight Dawson or any of the top light heavyweights in the world.” Read more: http://www.*************.com/headlines/tavoris-cloud-targets-dawson-for-unification/#ixzz1dbSC7msa This is all news to me man...but here's the thing..Chad NEVER fought above 165 as an amateur, never...

cloud knocks dawson out.

he said that?? LOL He's a LIAR!!!!!!!!!!! Hmm maybe I was a little off, it was a while ago when I read about it. I guess it was actually sparring?

This thread will probably get lost in the Pacquaio-JMM 3 mess. I used to have a high opinion of Cloud, but not anymore. I thought Glen Johnson beat him even though their fight was close. And even though I didn't watch his fight with Zuniga I heard he looked bad.

Cloud says he stopped Dawson when they fought amateur. Things might be different now though. he said that?? LOL He's a LIAR!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a fight I wanted to see a year or two ago when Dawson was undefeated. Never knew about the bad blood between these two gotta check that out, but It's still a good fight but im picking Dawson U12...

how the hell is this a superfight? cloud sucks, big time

Dawson boxes Circles Around Cloud! I would rather see Cloud vs Pascal because I think it would be more explosive Yusaf Mack at times was out-boxing Cloud in that match

Interesting matchup between two Mars Libras Cloud has the will and is more rugged ( Capricorn sun leo moon) Chad has more skill ( cancer sun aries moon) Mars opposite moon works against Chad here as an energy drain. Both fighters do not fight at a fast pace. Chads hieght and reach advantage work greatly in his favor here. If chad allows cloud inside, cloud is a great short puncher so getting lazy and laying on the ropes as cloud stalks him will get him into trouble but at the end of the day i think chad is too slick.

Ill say Chad Dawson outboxes Cloud and makes him look less than stellar in the process :)

Cloud wins. He is an excellent pressure fighter who knows how to cut off the ring & work the body. Dawson doesn't like a high workrate. When Pascal pressed him he was completely out of rythm, bending to low & backing straight up, Cloud applies much better pressure, Cloud wins. Cloud had trouble in spots with Mack's boxing and couldn't finish Zuniga even though the "overrated hypejob" Bute destroyed him.

He's involved in a superfight vs Erdei. He will have his hands full with Zsolt.

It is not really a super fight~ it would be a good HBO championship boxing main event though. Interesting fight, could go either way if Dawson fights his best throughout the fight he should win but he is inconsistent so if Cloud stays with him and takes advantage of those lapses he stands a decent shot of pulling it out

I'm trying to get you guys talking about other big fights. Maybe if we start to ignore Pacman and Mayweather, the fight would happend. Theres plenty of big fights to be made, the problem is that the demand is not there so no one wants to put the big bucks up for it. Boxing is a business. If we demand big fights we will get big fights. The promoters and investors listen to the media and the media listens to the fans. We as fans need to demand the best fighting the best. The boxers get more money and we get more big fights. Its a win win situation, lol
