    I definitely can see Ward winning, and possibly even big. It's a tough call. But I have a feeling that Chad will impose his style on Ward and make it really difficult.

    Whatever happens, I hope we get an interesting match and may the best man win.

    Thanks for reading.

    I like Ward a lot. I picked him in each and every fight along the way throughout the Super Six. I think he's gifted and rare.

    But I just feel Chad is going to prove quite burdensome for him, and even though I view Ward as a master of versatility, I think he may find this trickier than many expect him to.

    Again, just hoping for a good one!

    I like your writing style G. Was a good read : ) Think this fight will be really close and depends on what gameplans the trainer's have instilled into their fighters.

    Think this fight should have got more publicity/hype but tbh real boxing fans will be watching this fight for sure. Even if Chad loses to close points decision... nothing to be ashamed of. Chad did look abit drained imo in the weigh in.

    I'm really excited for this fight, I think Dawson gets underrated significantly here, and win or lose he is going to give Ward hell.

    As a fan, I think it should have gotten more myself, but I guess the purse totals kind of perhaps help illustrate why it got what it did.

    Whatever happens, I'm hoping we get a good fight! May the best man win, and may it be controversy free!

    Nice write-up, G. :good I agree with absolutely everything...except ultimately the outcome prediction. :yep

    I've said all along this will be TOUGH for Ward...and it goes without saying that Dawson is looking down the barrel of a host of challenges...

    Ward presents an entirely different set of difficulties for Dawson than his most arduous task to date (Pascal, who I actually think Dawson would probably beat in a rematch today) - and Dawson as you point out is even more of a Chinese box than Bika.

    We're going to see both of them grow a little uncomfortable and do some thinking on the fly, and it's going to be brilliant to watch. **** the action junkie casuals.
