HBO Looking to get Dawson-Cloud on for early 2011

[skel1983]

Nice fight winner of this fights the winner of Pascal v Hopkins I reckon.

Also Dawson has left his trainer looking for a new coach.

Adios Bad Chad!

Chad's a great boxer, but he's gonna get tore up against Cloud's work rate. I think BCD has got too comfortable in the ring, he has to know when being patient is a liablity (e.g. against Pascal) I don't think a new coach will be able to break him of that habit. On the flipside Cloud looked human against Johnson, and Dawson may be able to keep him off.

I expect Cloud to score a UD here as Dawson should be able to move enough to not get clocked clean, but too defensive to get a decision.

Few months ago I would have said Dawson unanimous. No longer. Tough one but lean towards Cloud. Strength,volume with straight shots and a huge intangible I def don't see in Dawson now......Desire!

Cloud has some cracking power too. It's amazing what a few months does though. If i'd asked the question who would win between these two last christmas I think that 7 out of 10 would have gone for Dawson. Now I bet it's similar the other way round!

It will be the biggest test for Cloud so far though and it will also show whether or not Dawson has what it takes to bounce back like a real champ. I'm a little torn on this one but I was before the Pacal fight too. IMO Dawson might just know too much for Pascal if they were to rematch.

Another trainer ? Eddie M had nothing to do with that loss. Cloud threw punches dawson sat around. I do think dawson would beat him in a rematch..but i can see that pain in boxings ass b hop ruining the whole thing. Simply by outsmarting cloud.
