    You can't dismiss the technical playout of the fight just because you assume Dawson was drained. It's circular logic.

    Why'd Dawson lose? Because he was drained.
    Why do you say he was drained? Just look at how he lost.

    He suffered the same problems against a less technically gifted fighter in Pascal. And your earlier suggestion that Dawson got rocked form the knockdowns simply isn't true. He was stunned at other times, but those knockdowns were because of his balance. I don't care if Dawson was 200 or 100 pounds; every time Ward feinted, Dawson ducked down. Everytime he ducked down, Wad pivoted leftward and caught him with a left that knocked him off balance.

    Maybe neither, Maybe Ward is pretty good.

    It's been obvious for a long time to anyone who would look that Dawson's chin is as shaky as they come.:yep

    Only a matter of time before he gets knocked out cold.

    Wards power is being seriously underrated, it's hard to record knock outs when you constantly fight guys like Froch, Kessler, Abraham & Bika, they all have good chins.
    He hurt Dawson with good accurate shots to the chin. Ward would have more KO's if he fought the same level of competition as Golovkin.

    How about Green, Miranda? These guys get knocked around by every other top guy

    I didn't say that Ward is a KO artist but he is not feather fisted as some posters are saying.

    GLASS CHINNED? -no.

    DRAINED? -no. (this is a very overblown factor.)

    JUST PLAIN OUTCLASSED? - this.

    PREMATURELY SHOWING HIS AGE? - this, too.
