    I feel like he's going to be fed to somebody like Beterbiev after a couple wins against low-level guys and get absolutely annihilated.

    It wouldn't surprise me (this is boxing), but I hope not. Anyone who might've had a vendetta against Chad can already just watch the Ward and Superpimp fights if they want a fix. There's no need for a fight like that at this stage in Chad's career.

    This. He has had all the potential in the world. I still don't give Ward credit for the win, since Ward was skilled enough to fight him on an even playing field.

    I think that bird has flown. He will always be in the what might have been category for me.

    Well he did actually achieve quite a bit.
    True, he could have maybe done more if he had kept his head together

    I thought he was going to be a rare all time great.

    He looks more muscular around the neck and shoulders. Maybe it's just the camera angle and the way he's leaning forward.

    B-Hop, Adamek and Tarver are remarkable wins though. Despiye B-Hop's age and Adamek draining himself.

    B-Hop performed at the highest level for a couple of years after the decisive loss to Dawson in the rematch.

    Adamek wasn't that drained, he came in 174lbs. It was time for him to move up to CW, but he wasn't a dried out husk like Dawson was himself versus Ward.


    ...and yeah, Tarver was a good W too.
