Dawson is the definition of a crossroads fight,” сказал Лу ДиБелла, Президент ДиБелла Entertainment. “Former world champion Chad Dawson needs a signature win to reignite his career. Fonfara is coming off a shocking knockout loss. Fonfara should have the support of New York’s strong Polish community on Март 4 at the Barclays Center. This is a significant light heavyweight fight and a terrific addition to a strong undercard.”
A popular Polish-fighter who has fought out of Chicago for most of his career, Fonfara will make his New York debut in front of the many Polish fans in Brooklyn. Now training in Oakland with Virgil Hunter, Fonfara will look to bounce back from a defeat to Joe Smith Jr. and work his way towards a second world title opportunity, after he dropped Adonis Stevenson in a decision loss for his world title in 2014. The 29-year-old has impressive recent victories including becoming the first fighter to stop Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., when he blasted out the former champion in nine rounds in 2015, and a follow-up victory over current light heavyweight titlist Nathan Cleverly that was a 2015 Fight of the Year candidate and saw the fighters break Compubox records in the division for number of punches landed (936) и бросили (2524) в борьбе.
Бывший чемпион мира в полутяжелом весе, Dawson returns to the ring looking to earn another world title shot. 33-летний владеет победы над бывшими чемпионами мира Бернардом Хопкинсом, Antonio Tarver and Tomasz Adamek and is coming off of victories over Shujaa El Amin last year. New Haven, Connecticut-native has fought professionally since 2001 и был сломлен в его первом 21 pro fights on his way to becoming a two-time world champion.
