HBO Looking to get Dawson-Cloud on for early 2011

[No Contest]

I thought he had a rematch clause with Pascal? Now B-Hops gonna try and jump in there and headbutt Pascal when he lunges in, and throw a punch at the same time that looks like he k.o'd him with. I guess B-Hop gets priority, cuz he's so old, and cant wait that long? I like B-Hop but why does he get Pascal first? Pascal is basically tailor made for B-Hop, B-Hop will just wait all day for the lunge, and counter him with headbutts, lol.

Chad Dawson is solid on defense, but he lacks any kind of punch to keep a fighter using the high pressure style of Cloud off of him for 12 rounds. Chad has fast hands but little to no power and he's only really effective with his right hand, his left is useless it does nothing.

Tavoris Cloud will be on Chad from the first second and I highly doubt Chad can withstand that type of assault for the length of the fight. I think this fight will remind people a lot of early Miguel Cotto fights where he'd just simply bully and beat up his opponent until they could take no more...think Cotto-Branco or Cotto-Malinaggi. Dawson MIGHT make it to the final bell, he certainly moves well enough, but I'm thinking Cloud stops him circa 8.
