Comments Thread For: Dawson-Stevenson: Contracts To Be Signed on Monday

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Promoter Gary Shaw has advised BoxingScene.com that all of the terms have been agreed upon for "Bad" Chad Dawson (31-2, 17KOs) to defend his WBC light heavyweight title against hard-punching super middleweight Adonis Stevenson (20-1, 17KOs) on June 8th at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Canada. HBO will televise the fight.

"The contracts will be signed tomorrow, for June 8th from the Bell Centre, and on HBO," Shaw told BoxingScene.com.

Dawson was orginally scheduled to face Jean Pascal in a rematch on May 25th, but Pascal headed in another direction by reaching an agreement to face Lucian Bute in a high profile Canadian super-fight. Stevenson, the mandatory challenger to IBF champion Carl Froch, was left out in the cold when Froch finalized a deal to face WBA champion Mikkel Kessler in a rematch on May 25th in the UK.

Austin Trout talks options if he beats Canelo; Mayweather, Move to 160.

Thought I'd share this interview from today.

It's interesting because in an earlier thread Trouts options were being discussed if he were to beat Canelo.

Most seem to think Trout-Mayweather is a highly unlikely option. I consider it to be unlikely also.

It was being said that Trout, were he to beat Canelo, would have no where to go coming off such a huge win.

Why not a move to 160? Trout is a huge Jr MW. He's one of the biggest Jr MW's I've ever seen. People seem to forget that he actually missed the weight against Cotto. He had to weigh in again and strip naked to make the weight.

How many fights does Trout realistically have left at 154? I don't see too many more.

How does he fair with Martinez? Chavez? Golovkin?

Dawson should be able to handle Stevenson, then fight Kovalev.
