    Dawson was the lineal LHW champion and a *very* credible opponent when Ward beat him.

    Exactly WHO has the Triple Duck ever beaten?

    They're hanging the hat on the fact that Smith was good enough to maybe get a draw against Abraham the first time they fought and was robbed of a draw not of a win, which merited the rematch, in which he was completely dominated in so he won neither. Ward fought a guy who looked decent against a shot Abraham once that Ward completely dominated a far better version of years ago.:lol:

    Which translates to "I am scared of Andre Ward"

    Dawson made the weight fine.

    He said he was very comfortable there.

    Just two different class of fighters. That's all.

    It is all about the benjamins. If ward was as popular as Chavez or froch GGG would concede the weight disadvantage in a heart beat, since he is going to be making allot of money in the process.

    Why is he talking about money so much?

    He makes less than Ward. :lol:

    Why do you guys keep using money as an excuse for trying to weight drain Dre? :rofl

    It absolutely makes no sense.

    He would make more with Ward than any of the guys he's been facing.

    So all about money not legacy? He would rather be remembered as a well paid can crusher than an all time great warrior who challenged himself?

    I really don't get why they keep referring to the benjamins. He makes less than Ward ffs.

    Him fighting Ward would net him more cake than any of the guys he's been fighting. It astounds me.

    Having Chavez and Froch on your resume would increase your legacy, and also pay you allot more in the process.

    Well CST, I don't want to argue with you. You're one of the last guys I want to banter with, you're one of the guys I like on this forum.

    I just want a fair fight.

    If GGG can't make the weight now, then no fight.

    Let's wait for him to make that weight comfortably.

    But catchweights are not cool for the sport.

    164 sucks.
