    He got TKO by Ward at 168, wll his World Title at 175 automatically get stripped?

    I'm not sure about this rule. Thanks for giving me the knowledge.

    By the way, Dawson paid the high price to fight Ward at 168. I warned him many times to think about it but he didn't listen to me.:lol:

    He's still the champ, but not for long unless he recovers and improves his preparation.

    The fight was for Ward's belt, since it was at his weightclass. Technically, you cant lose your belt if the fight is at another weightclass, though Sulaiman will flex that rule from time to time
