Comments Thread For: Dawson: Haymon Gave Me a Shot When Others Did Not

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Former WBC light heavyweight champion Chad Dawson (32-3, 18KOs) returned to action on Saturday night at the StubHub Center in Carson, and stopped George Blades in the first round.

Dawson, 31-years-old, is going right back in the gym for a planned return in September. He want to stay active after taking a year off following back to back TKO defeats to Andre Ward and Adonis Stevenson.

Earlier this year, Dawson signed a contract with influential adviser Al Haymon. He says Haymon is giving him the opportunity to reestablish himself when most promoters turned their backs to him.

I like he how he equates Haymon with a promoter....another useful quote for Kathy Duva's lawsuit.

Gave him an untelevised undercard slot where some random unknown guy got paid more than him

So paying Al Haymon his cut and paying GBP for promoting your fight is a shot? He would be lucky if he walked away with $500 bucks last night
