By Dan Ambrose: Chad Dawson (31-3, 17 KO’s) will be staging a comeback this month after a year-long layoff to fight George Blades (23-5, 16 KO’s) on the Robert Guerrero vs. Yoshihiro Kamegai card on 6/21 at the StubHub Center in Carson, California, according to RingTV. The Dawson-Blades fight, which isn’t expected to be a competitive one, won’t be make the television portion of the Showtime card.
It’s not surprising that the Dawson vs. Blades fight won’t be televised because the card is loaded with Gary Russell Jr facing Vasyl Lomachenko for the vacant WBO featherweight title, former two division world champion Devon Alexander battling Jesus Soto Karass in a 10-round bout, and heavyweights Dominic Breazeale and Devin Vargas going at in a 10 round fight.
