      That is how boxing has become, the top guys seem to only fight once or twice a year.

        It feels like Dawson fights once a year.

          Yeah, it sucks. But it's al business, fights don't happen unless everyone is happy with what they're earning. That's why it takes some time to make them fight.

              WBO CW Champ Marco Huck seems to be 'bucking' that trend. He fights 4 times per year. In August he'll fight his third fight of 2010 and then he'll fight again in the Fall. You gotta admire his perseverance...
