    dawson was actually knocked OUT in sparring before the ward fight by edison miranda, that Would explain the lack of punch resistance from then on if he got hit in the head while drained 2 weeks after getting Knocked out.

    Another example was RJJ who was KO'd by tarver, came back too early before his brain was healed and those shots in the johnson fight while his brain hadn't finished healing are what ruined his chin forever(according to manny stewart), RJJ had showed zero problems with his chin before, was never hurt in 50 pro fights and now seems to GO TO SLEEP all the time

    They're both prime examples of why draining yourslef after certain point of your career is not wise.

    that too but the getting hit on the head after getting KO'd without proper healing time is what ****ed them up for good. The draining doesnt do your brain much good either, it depletes the fluid surrounding and protecting your brain

    Same could probably apply to Sammy Vasquez, he had brain surgery in July, he should have taken 2 years off, he went from taking a ton of flush bombs from Felix Diaz, who's a beast, to getting KO'd cold by Collazo.

    Very disturbing that he was either not told or not convinced that he shouldve let his brain heal. I mean its YOUR ****ING BRAIN MAN are you kidding me

    What the **** are you talking about? I've never praised Pacquaio for his wins over ODLH or Margarito. His fight with Margo was fun to watch, that's the closest you could find in my post history.

    We see this a lot in pro wrestling. And we see the repercussions
    And Margarito too no doubt - coming off a devastating loss then weight drained to ****

    We saw this sort of stuff in pro wrestling all the time. Wrestlers had to fight most days of the year, injured or not, or they didnt get paid. Concussions were part of the job, until the Bennoit situation. A lot of wrestlers these days are in constant pain. Its no wonder so many are dying of overdoses

    This. Draining dehydrates the brain causing it to be more susceptible to injury.

    You can't fully heal after a KO. Once it's done, you're done

    Dawson vs. Miranda would've been an interesting 3sting clash at LHW around then, actually.
