Who would you rather see fight next?

Chad Dawson vs Tavoris Cloud for a unification bout at 175.

Chad Dawson vs Lucien Bute at 175 or a catchweight of 170ish.

Simple question. I want to see where the posters are at with this...

Voted for neither....I wanna see Dawson vs Ward at a 170 catch....or if both can make 168lbs / 175lbs and not ***** about it....let's get it on.

Dawson-Bute sounds exciting. Dawson should fight in canada

[Heru]

They don't even have to rush Dawson/Bute, both can take tune-up fights at 175 then fight each other. So, that way Bute can get a better feel for 175. He hasn't fought there for a bit. Dawson's tune-up could be Cloud... BWAHAHAHA

The weight draining has already started to weigh on Bute. Bute will lose because of it when he faces the winner of the Super 6. He's a good boxer, but he will not look good in the late rounds at 168.

He should already be thinking about moving up, but he won't. And after Dawson does what he's gonna do to Pascal, Bute and his team will not want to see Dawson in the US, Canada, Montreal, anywhere.

Come on Shadows... Are we gonna keep acting as if the WBO and WBA are actually worth something at 175?

Brahmer failed on more than 1 attempt to get the WBO against decent opposition at 168. And finally got it after Universum got Erdei to vacate and finally got dude a title. You probably watched Campillo-Shumenov II. Shumenov can't even be called a titlist. **** is ridiculous.

When Dawson beats Cloud, he will be undisputed at 175.

It's not about the titles for me, I'd rather just see him beat the only remaining live opponent in the division first. I wouldn't care if one or both of them got stripped.

Also, and I just remembered we may get an immediate rematch for Dawson-Pascal. Just throwin' that out there.

Whats this hype with Pascal? This is the same Pascal who got UD'd by Carl Froch. The only way Dawson could ever make a fighter like Bute fear him is if he gets an impressive KO/TKO over Pascal. Which isn't impossible but I see it going the distance with a lop-sided score favoring Dawson.

Ward is one of the stronger Super middleweight and is ripped as ****, he doesn't need a catchweight.

[Dick Buffman]

People always complain how Dawson is a nobody and can't draw for ****. I don't see how fighting Cloud would help that. Fighting another nobody who can't draw for **** vs. fighting another HBO fighter with a great following in Canada.

Hmmmmmmm

2 nobodies fighting each other. I would boycott.

I keep telling people Bute is not only taller than everyone in the Super 6 excluding Dirrell who's the same height as him, I think he's actually bigger than all of them. I can't see how moving in weight would hurt him. He's definitely bigger than Dirrell on fight night. Bute is a big SMW.

Honestly I think Hopkins is much liver than Cloud at 175. I see 45 year old Hopkins schooling Jeff Lacy's twin right now.

I hope not. I don't think so either because I've heard that interim titlists and mandatories don't have to sign immediate rematch clauses. It's supposedly a standard clause for voluntary defenses though.

Froch-Pascal was a close competitive FOTY candidate, not some blowout. Froch is underrated and better than any opponent Bute has faced so far, let alone after he beats Abraham.

I see it the same, but judges will make it an 8-4 or 7-5 decision when it should've been 10-2 or 9-3. Dawson has a shot at stopping Pascal late, if he piles it on.
