Dawson Stops Ruiz to Defend WBC Crown

The 38-year-old Tarver (25-4) hadn't fought since losing the title convincingly to Bernard Hopkins a year ago. Tarver's only performance since then was opposite Sylvester Stallone as fictional heavyweight champion Mason Dixon in 'Rocky Balboa,' the sixth movie in the 'Rocky' series.

I hope Traver and Dawson have a match, I think Dawson is the biggest rising star in boxing today and would clean Tarver out
