    just wishful thinking from a few haters that don't like Dawson style

    have to see how the Ratings did first, I seriously doubt HBO is even considering getting rid of Dawson...FOR WHAT? because he lost? I am sure HBO would love to do a Dawson vs Pascal rematch especially if the Ratings for this fight did well and obviously they would love to do the Dawson vs Cloud match, things starting heat up a little bit in that division and all of those fighters are still young so I seriously doubt HBO will be dropping Dawson anytime soon

      I think Dawson is also managed by Al Haymon like Berto and Williams are isn't he? I don't understand why HBO is forcing Williams to fight Martinez in a rematch but is letting Berto get away with fighting Kotelnik or Guzman. Don't get me wrong, I want to see the Martinez-Williams rematch bad. But if HBO lets Dawson back on their air with a tune up fight until the rematch with Pascal then that goes to show you they are giving Dawson and Berto preferential treatment. They have zero fan base and like you said HBO wasted a **** load of money on Dawson's sissy boy slap parties.

        No one does man. That's one of the big mysteries in boxing. The only possible explanation I have is some people are getting serious kick-backs from Berto fighting on HBO.

        There is no other logical explanation for the amount of fights Berto has on HBO. He probably has more fights on HBO than almost any active fighter besides a few of the older fighters.

          Umm....apparently you've never seen him fight. So now somebody new....you are just wrong.

          This isn't really debatable. Someone is seriously saying Dawson doesn't explode with combos? That's how he fights for gods sake.

          Sounds like some of these people only saw the second Johnson fight.

          Are you gonna say he holds a lot too? Because it seems like you're just taking out boring fighter criteria and applying it to Dawson because you don't know what you're talking about.

          Dawson throws explosive combos and rarely, if ever holds.
          yeah 2 times a round....

            Mike Criscio or whatever his name is is Dawson's manager now. That story about him and J Prince came out after I made the last post I did. Lol.
