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.
