    I knew it would be a terrible mistake for him to come down that far in weight.

    He will rehydrate. If Julio Ceasr Chavez Jr can make MW, Dawson can make SMW.

    I wouldn't be surprised either way TBH. Sounds like this may be legit but at the same time could be a ploy or an attempt at a distraction.

    Lot's of **** gets thrown around during fight week.

    For those who doubted me, as you can see in this thread, many others have heard about Dawson getting KO'd. I didn't just pull the story out of my ass. It happened. There were plenty of witnesses. Just 'cause you can't find a 'link' or a video doesn't mean it didnt happen.

    I considered the same thing. If Fanning says he has a reliable source from the Ward Camp saying they heard the same thing - then I have no doubt, none whatsoever, that this is EXACTLY what the Ward Camp heard.

    Does that mean it really happened? Or is it possible, like you said, that it could be a false flag purposefully leaked?

    We will not know the answer to this.

    Now if it is true: If it was just a knockdown, then I don't find it to be a big deal. If, however, it was a brutal KO kind of knock down, then this doesn't sound good for Chad.

    Regardless, we will just have to wait and see how this one plays out. We'll have our answer soon enough.

    That I am not so sure about. Who is going to come clean? Especially if it is the second scenario. Don't expect Chad to say I got brutally KO'd. He may want to put an end to the rumors and say either nothing happened or that it was a flash KO that people blew out of proportion. I just don't think he will ever admit being KTFO. Miranda, I guess he has less to lose on this one. I just don't see him coming out and saying it. He and Chad trained together for 5-6 week

    Well its clear to me a ton of ESB'ers love to gossip :lol:

    Whether or not we are dealing with hyperbole here or just plain ol sensationalism is still yet to be confirmed. Either way I find it hard to incorporate how this will effect the fight in anyway. What Miranda does in the ring has nothing to do with Ward. Miranda has balls and goes for the glory with those heavy handed shots but lets be serious here....would you favor him vs. Dawson in a real professional bout? The gap in skill is quite signifigant and that's being kind. Actually now that I think about it there's a good possibility Chad did get sparked, he probably went through one of his many "brain fart" moments and got caught with a sweet shot. In anycase all this he said she said crap makes you fellas sound like school girls fighting over some random rual middle american dude with blonde hair and blue eyes named "Zack".

    Dude I got in touch with my man Billy C, from Billy C Boxing and his reporter Dax Khan who is in constant touch with John Scully and frequently present in camp.

    I beleived you at first! But after doing my research with every REAL "Boxing Insider" that I know. They have all discredited your claim bro.

    Sorry this did not in fact happen and unlike you I have a link from a real boxing insider.

    [url]http://billycboxing.com/[/url]

    The video is in the middle of the page and they start talking about it at about the 32 minute mark. I am CastleHillGil and they responds to my question, confirming it did not happen.

    Stop talking **** man. Gossip is for bitches. :deal

    You are welcome to the rest of you for finally putting this to bed.

    This is not true it's probably a rumor spread by Mirandas team.

    Now IB Ban him for false news, I have been banned for less.

    Did you ask them why Miranda left camp a week earlier than scheduled? :think Probably for his own health no doubt.

    My checking from an eye witness account says that .... Crap. Better check and see if it is OK to give the details and punch combo.... Did I say too much already? Damned....
