    Adamek vs Dawson II (someday)

    Not saying its anytime soon, but given Dawsons size he could put on the weight to get upto Cruiser, and both guys will eventually run out of challengers.

    Think there is a pretty good chance there is a rematch?

    It makes sense, actually my uncle and i were talking about this a few months ago. I think the fight should be at a catch weight(say 185-189) because Dawson is not going all the way up there, he even stated it in an interview that it would make no sense, since the big fights are all at super middle- light heavy. Hes not struggling with weight at all, and he told me through ******* that he comes to camp almost on weight.

      Adamek was sick and weight drained when he fought Dawson. He was killing himself to make 175, that's why he moved up 25 lbs to cruiserweight.

      Adamek KO's Dawson at cruiserweight

        If these two continue to be the best in their respective divisions, I think we'll see more people calling for it before too long. I don't think that Adamek will do much better though, as Dawson has shown more improvement since their first fight IMO.

        It's a shame that there's a 25lb difference there, because I'd also like to see Dawson-Cunningham and Adamek-Johnson.

          Right now Dawson is comfortable at light heavyweight, but perhaps when he gets older he'll want to move up. But by that time Adamek will be in his mid-to-late thirties.

          Meanwhile, Dawson should fight Hopkins, Cloud, Diaconu and maybe Kessler.

            Dawson easily out boxed him at light-heavy, is there any reason to believe that he couldn't do the same thing at cruiser?

              I can see this fight once dawson grows out of 175 and adamek gain more popularity

                assuming adameks 1 dimensional ass is even relevant for more than the next year or so...

                  It probably wont happen. Chad has no trouble making LHW, and could make SMW if the right offer came along. If he can get down as low as 168 I cant imagine he would start fighting at 200.

                    I agree on Dianconu and Kessler. The former just to solidify is control at LHW, the latter would really gain him some respect in the boxing world.
