Dawson Destroys Mendoza
There is an age-old question on just how much punishment a fighter should take? Fortunately referee Jon Schorle is a man of mercy and Epifanio “Diamante” Mendoza did not have to exit Arco Arena on his shield. Double right hooks upstairs and enough brutal body shots to drop most load bearing walls were the storyline, as the world’s best light heavyweight “Bad” Chad Dawson scored a scalding 4th round TKO over the late replacement Mendoza. The southpaw WBC 175-pound king Dawson began taking the challenger apart in the opening stanza and never eased off the throttle.

Pavlik Prevails TKO’s Taylor
Sometimes heart is the most critical component in a fighter. Of course, it doesn’t hurt if you have a right hand that seems to be forged out of steel. Trailing on the scorecards and forced to rally after climbing off the deck in the 2nd, 8 to 5 underdog Kelly “The Ghost” Pavlik turned up the heat to score a 7th round TKO over Jermain “Bad Intentions” Taylor to win the WBC and the WBO middleweight titles.
