One night before the Super Bowl, a world championship doubleheader will transpire on “Super Saturday’’ on SHOWTIME. In SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING’S main event, two of the light heavyweight division’s brightest stars will clash when exciting Tomasz Adamek (31-0, 20 KOs) risks his WBC belt against hard-hitting southpaw and WBC No. 2 contender “Bad’’ Chad Dawson (22-0, 15 KOs). Making his first start since he won the IBF lightweight belt in a bout against Levander Johnson that ended in tragedy 16 months ago, Jesus “El Matador” Chavez (42-3, 29 KOs) will defend against IBF interim champion Julio “The Kidd’’ Diaz (33-3, 24 KOs) in the telecast’s opener (9 p.m. ET/PT, delayed on the west coast).

Julio Diaz said if right. "don't trust the nice guy image of Chavez, he is mean and will be mean inside that ring." And Chavez admited this. I've always said, some fighters play nice before a fight, to get there opponet off guard so when they fight they are taken back by the fierce temper and pain and fury they are bringing to them. Even when a fighter shakes hands, that is a sign, imo, a stratagy to lure his opponet into a comfort zone, then out of nowhere the nice guy that wants to touch gloves is beating the crap out of you. Mind games is what it is and Diaz aint falling for it.
Come on Diaz, World Champion!Comment
