Yeah but this fight was for the WBC interim title.I highly doubt that. I am guessing that Johnson and Diaconu are fighting for the interim title that Adrian won today so Dawson gets to keep his belt. Dawson and Tarver are unifying around the fall and the winner should meet Johnson or Diaconu for their title shot.Comment

Diaconu is not the WBC light heavyweight champion, he just has the interim title so that makes him the mandatory challenger for Dawson belt. Just like Michael Kadsitas was the interim champion for Casamayor's belt.

No, the WBC president said Chad Dawson has to fight Diaconu next - the WBC interim titles are "interim" in the truest sense of the word. Remember Maskaev had to fight interim titleholder Peter.
Glen Johnson just lost in a voluntary defense by Dawson.Comment

It's kind of a dumb move by the WBC. They played that card with Maskaeev because he was holding the title hostage with his "injuries".
Dawson just won. Why doesn't he have a time frame to fight the mandatory?
Can't he accept another defense first?
I mean they gave everything to Vitali on a silver platter if he came back even made him some bs champion.
It seems like they pick and choose who is mandatory.
They shouldn't punish Dawson if he chooses to try to unify.Comment
