    Prepare to get flooded wit "but Dawson was weight drained" even though it was him that called Ward out at 168.

    You have to back ward in this. Just far more proven against genuine word class fighters. Also he dominated those fighters. Then again the both struggled against boone.

    Dawson physically looked worse at 168 than Oscar did at 147. Dawson's mouth simply wrote a check that his body couldn't cash.

    Maybe, but he called for the fight and both him and Scully claimed (before) the fight weight wasn't an issue. Personally I think Ward would have beat him at either weight. But you can hardly blame Andre for accepting Dawson's Challenge.

    I agree with you but it still doesn't change the fact that Dawson was a zombie at 168. Ward shook him with a jab. Rumors that Miranda ko'd him in sparring. This was not Dawson at his best.

    OK Andre then fight him, move up to 175 and face him, he doesn't have a fight lined up and Ward has cleared out 168, Fight Kovalev and see what his power is like. Ward can win but he won't fight Kovalev he won't move up to 175. Krusher will also have to agree to fight in Oakland with Andre's personal ref and judges. Stop staying at home fighting in a division with nothing left and Fight Krusher.

    This is my problem with Ward after the Super 6. He's quick to tell us how all these guys are flawed but that's all he'll do, just ****ing show us in the ring.

    Like I said, I think Ward beats him at either weight. But your point is well taken.

    No,Andre Bored will rather wait for GGG to move up and brag about how he could beat Klitchko.

    A similar principle applies, Ward has never faced anyone with Kovalevs power. I rate Ward very highly but Kovalev is too big, he could hurt Ward through his guard and he would connect.

    This is good. If Ward isn't afraid, he's willing to fight. A big win for boxing and boxing fans.

    All he needs to do now is sort out his promotional issues and we can get this fight on.

    Zombie Dawson is not 'A' List at 168. Don't be silly.
