    I think with his new trainer he'll get re-focused and hopefully his attitude will get better.

        Agreed, I didn't even bring that up yet.

        WTF? Never heard that one before.

          To me, getting Steward doesn't necessarily show he's hungry. A new trainer is all the more reason he should stay active.

            He's not really trying to show he wants it. He hasn't fought since Pascal, which he could have done to make a statement. Him and his team are pretty damn quiet about the bhop rematch.

            If you're gonna keep quiet, you better speak loudly with your fists. He's been on the gravy train and is acting soft.
            Exactly, he routinley shows up and phones in performances.

              not that I necessarily disagree, but the guy sounds like he wants to bounce back strong

              Then take a damn fight, show hbo why they should enforce the rematch.

                Maybe he's bored having all these rematches, maybe he's comfortable with his dough, maybe he's just not the firey type, but I just don't see the same guy that put it on adamek. I don't see the guy that used to go for ko's before he got on hbo.
                Because he has a contract that states that rematch is his.

                Dawson is not a boisterous person.

                    It is possible but it could just as easily mean nothing as he is a low key guy. The only thing that can provide the answer is time and it could possibly only take 1 fight which I would hope would be months and not years

                      I only said years because it may take more than one fight for you to make your opinion.

                      I certainly could he wrong but I'm pointing out signs I see.
