BoxingScene.com has been advised that WBC light heavyweight champion Chad Dawson (31-1, 17KOs) will be joined in his Las Vegas training camp by veteran puncher Edison Miranda (35-7, 30KOs). The two boxers will train side by side, and spar, as they prepare for their upcoming fights. Dawson returns on September 8th, dropping down to 168-pounds to challenge WBC champion Andre Ward (25-0, 13, KOs) in a high-profile fight at the Oracle in Oakland, California. Miranda, also on September 8th, will travel to London to face hard-punching Tony Bellew (17-1, 11KOs). Miranda fought Ward in May of 2009, and lost a twelve round unanimous decision.
