Comments Thread For: Andrzej Fonfara vs Chad Dawson in Play For January 14

[PunchyPotorff]

Probably nutty, but still believing in Dawson. Just wish he'd listen to someone besides himself for a change. But either way, this will be an excellent test to see just where each fighter is at.

[PBR Streetgang]

Like both fighters, hard for me to see it going my any other way than Fonfara by stoppage. Stranger things have happened tho...

And we still don't have a date for Brandon Rios - Victor Ortiz
with plenty of other fighters with no dates yet, but a lot of them were told to be ready for the first quarter of next year (like Porter and Berto).

For those of you talking about mismatches, you also have to factor in where they are putting some of these fights. It is a good way for up and coming prospects to get some shine in there home towns, and keeps fighters active.

I remember when Dawson was considered to be the future of the LHW division.... time flies

Draining himself for the Ward fight ruined him.

he fought a lot of tough guys back to back...look at his resume. He fought Adamak, Pascal, Ward, Stevenson, Tarver, gLEN jOHNSON, all former 175 champions ...Add in Diaconu, and eric harding, its no surprise he is used up

Draining down to 168 to take an ass whipping from Ward ruined him more than anything.... then he went into the Stevenson fight with the wrong mindset because he felt he had something to prove.

[r1onnie2]

Crossroads fight for both fighters.

I second the motion on that one!

[Boxing lives]

Excellent loser leaves town match

[bigko]

Fonfora wins by stoppage..Dawson lost to ****ing Tommy Karpency

I actually had Chad winning the fight -- but I clearly had Karpency beating Fonfara before Fonfara landed a punch to stop the fight.

Fonfara is a 2/1 favorite here... the fact the sportsbooks have him 4/1 is crazy. I took Chad Dawson at THE GREEK sportsbook for +325. He could easily win this.
