The Light-Heavyweight Division is undergoing a reshaping at the top as young fighters are about to make their mark on the division, while some of the old stars of the weight class are starting to fade. The 175lb division is an intriguing weight class at the moment. It doesn’t have the depth like 140 or the elite fighters at the top like 147, but it does feature a changing of the guard at the top as young, strong fighters lead the division into the next era, while old stars begin …

-Scott’s On the Spot Weekly Boxing Report: James Toney (Shock) Flops in UFC Debut; Calderon Knocked Out and Suffers First Loss-
A lot went down this week in the ring, and even in the octagon in another surprising week in boxing. Let’s get the Randy Couture-James Toney fight out of the way first, like how I’d begin eating dinner as a kid by polishing off the vegetables so that I could focus solely on the good stuff. It really seemed that Dana White, a smart guy, scripted the whole thing. In …

-Huck stops Godfrey, Helenius TKOs Tony-
Marco Huck (30-1, 23 KOs) defended his WBO Cruiserweight Title with a spectacular fifth-round TKO victory over Matt Godfrey (20-2, 10 KOs). Fighting in front of a wild crowd of 4,500 fans in Erfurt, Huck dusted his opponent three times before the referee waved the bout off. “I am happy to have crowned the anniversary 100th ARD broadcast of a Sauerland show with a big victory,” Huck said. “I have tremendous punching power in both hands which I showed …

What possible fights lie ahead for the fallen superstar?
This past Saturday night, August 14, was suppose to have been a defining moment in the career of light-heavyweight champ “Bad” Chad Dawson when he faced off against Canadian French boxer Jean Pascal, with the WBC, IBO, and the Ring Magazine light-heavyweight titles on the line.  The fight was there for Dawson’s taking, but Dawson just did not do anything with the many opportunities that were presented to him in the fight.

-Pascal vs. Dawson; Cotto vs. Foreman; Alexander vs. Kotelnik and Much More Shape the New Top 20 Pound for Pound-
It’s been a long three and a half months since we here at ProBoxing-Fans.com updated our top 20 pound for pound list. Over that time, there has been a ton of interesting bouts taken place, including plenty of notable wins, some huge upsets, and the emergence of some great, young fighters. Check out the new list below!

-The Weekly Boxing Report: Dawson vs. Pascal; Arreola vs. Quezada-
Let’s get right into the action from the action-packed weekend that was in boxing. Chris Arreola looked dreadful in gutting out a decision over Manny Quezada on ESPN2’s Friday Night Fights. On one hand, it seems unfair to be too hard on a heavyweight who threw nearly 1000 punches with two injured hands, but there was little to like about his performance against the modestly skilled Quezada. The fact that it turned into a bruising 12-rounder doesn’t speak well for Arreola.

- Dawson vs. Pascal Ends in Huge Upset -
Much to the surprise of many observers (including this one), Jean Pascal whipped Chad Dawson in their WBC Light Heavyweight showdown. This sort of upset should raise the question if Chad Dawson was perhaps overrated. After all, if Dawson was as good as most thought him to be, even Pascal having the best night of his career should have faltered before Dawson on the worst night of his career.

Dawson vs. Pascal Results Crown’s a New Light Heavyweight Champion
The Dawson vs. Pascal results were a surprise for most spectators, that’s for sure. Despite the fact that Pascal was the defending titleholder in the bout, Dawson was respected by all as the number 1 fighter in the division. However, Pascal was busier, beat him to the punch, and controlled much of the action in the bout. As such, the light heavyweight rankings have an entirely new look and feel.

Looking Ahead to the Anticipated Devon Alexander vs. Timothy Bradley Showdown
Devon Alexander certainly didn’t live up to expectations on Saturday night against Andriy Kotelnik. He was involved in a close fight when many people thought Alexander was going to look spectacular. He just had an off night. Kotelnik is a good fighter and a lot of people really didn’t respect him because of the way Amir Khan dominated him. The question is: Will this fight have a lingering effect on Alexander as he gears for hopefully a Tim Bradley fight?

Taking a look back at all of the action and news from this weekend in boxing. Is Devon Alexander really “Great”? Andriy Kotelnik didn’t think so. Was Tavoris Cloud able to shine against the consummate veteran test? What happened to prospect Chris Avalos on Showtime? And much more…
