Is Andre Ward more or less getting a pass for disgracefully bringing Chad Dawson...

    Thats not how it went. Dawson said lets fight at 168 or a catchweight. Ward chose the easier option.

    For which part? there's a video which has been posted on here before where Ward is talking about the then potential matchup between the two, i'll post it when I find it.

    Oh looks another post full of fail, kind of like the post where you accused me of hating all American Fighters despite the fact one of my two favourite active fighters is American :nut:nut:patsch

    It's ok though you can carry on swimming in that pool of your own **** and ignorance :lol::dead

    no, dawson originally ducked the peak 168 division to fight in the poor 175 division. now 168 has declined, dawson is suddenley turned up in the 168 division to take easy pickings.

    glen johnson is a very good barometer between the divisions - walking punchbag at 168 but elite fighter in the weaker 175 division.

    Did Dawson's camp actually ASK for it to be at 170? Or is that just some BS you pulled outta your rear. This fight was briefly discussed than signed VERY quickly. I don't recall any notion of it being anywhere other than 168.

    Ward didn't do anything, Dawson said he would go down to 168 live on HBO before they even start really planning the fight.

    The amount of dumb **** you read on ESB is some what pathetic.:-(

    People say the dumbest **** at times...You duck a division to later comeback and fight the #1 guy of the division. Logic and common sense is a lost cause with some of these dumbass posters!:patsch

    They were talking about a catchweight and it's safe to assume it WASN'T 169lb, but since Dawson in his desperation had mentioned he's willing to come down to 168lb Ward took advantage of that and refused to budge and to top it off he's making sure he'll get any hometown nods :-(

    terrific post :lol:

    not only that, check out your vcash total . . . . . its an absolute ****ing disgrace :lol::lol::lol::rofl



    not only this, checkout your profile views :think

    in 8 years on esb you have received just 540 profile views

    that works out at less than 70 profile views per year

    6 profile views per month :lol:

    1.5 profile views per week :lol:


    you must be one of the most insignificant posters to ever grace esb . . . . . . . an absolute laughing stock to your insular country :rofl

    And why does one need to budge when the other says 168 is fine? I care less where they are fighting. It's not like Dawson has NO CHANCE to win a decision on Oaktown.It sounds more like you are just looking for any reason to *****.

    lol. Everyone complaining about Oakland as if there is a history of shady **** and gift decisions going on. yeah, maybe this fight should take place in New Haven where 200 people can show up?

    Dawson obviously doesnt have a problem with it.

    One year lay off?

    He fought Froch in mid December 2011and is scheduled to meet Dawson in early September 2012, unless my math or dates are wrong that looks like just shy of 9 months.

    As far as the thread's question? I do give Dre a pass because Dawson called him out and challenged him at 168. It wasn't like Ward said, " I'll fight you only at 168. " 168 was Dawson's idea. Pac fighting Margo and Cotto at catchweights was Roach and Arums idea.
