    Wow tough fight to pick. I'm a huge fan of them both, but honestly, Andre Ward by close decision. The only way Chad beats him is by using his size to keep him off the inside. Personally, I think Ward has faster hands, and is a better counter puncher.

    If Ward fights Bute and Dawson not too far apart I really would have to tip my hat off to him. Bute should be his main priority now though.

    This fight is a pick-em. Ward's more versatile, disciplined, much more focused. Dawson has a massive reach advantage, and a height advantage. Plus, Dawson is twice as slick, fast and agile as anyone Ward's fought to date. Wouldn't be surprised by a draw.

    I see lots of voices in favor of Ward, but I'm sticking to Dawson getting the UD, he's an awkward southpaw with an ability to control fights with his jab, generally he'd do everything to win by making the fight boring

    Dawson has been fighting the best available opponent for 5+ years now.

    His willingness to take on anybody and his resume for this era are really overlooked and underrated. If he hasn't earned some people's respect at this point, there's no hope for them.

    So if Bute clowns Froch like he did Johnson and KOs him.........you don't think Ward owes it to the fans to give us that fight?:think

    After alllllll that **** talking.

    Well, Ward/Floyd fans are just alike. Back the guy for being great even when he won't fight the greatest.:-(

    Wtf are you talking about? Ward just spent the better part of two years in the super 6 tournament taking on and beating the best in the world most of which easily. I swear you ward haters act like he hasn't done anything.
