    lol Didn't Miranda knock Dawson out cold during sparring preparing for the the Ward fight? I am a big Ward fan but let's be realistic. Dawson was the walking dead, he could hardly make it through the ring ropes. Dawson got shook from a Ward jab for gods' sake. Ward's victory over zombie Dawson isn't worth very much.

    You are correct, sir. Dawson was regarded as a top ten pound for pound fighter at the time. He was coming off his best win as a pro. :deal

    Then you must rate adonis stevensons KO over Dawson at his natural weight while Stevenson was moving up as the greatest win of all time?

    Shut up man, you're making more and more people turn against ward.

    Dummy? Try to keep it classy, nerd. Dawson looked worse than Oscar when he fought Pac. It may have been seen as a 50/50 fight but Dawson was a physical wreck entering the ring. I can't give Ward credit for beating that version of Dawson. That's like giving Holmes credit for beating the shot Ali.

    Incorrect, sir.

    Dawson was already effectively ruined as a top fighter by Ward. He was beaten up quite terribly that fight. Did you see the uppercuts which ripped into Dawson's face?

    It was brutal.

    Probably took decades off that man's life that night. And I like him too.

    But Ward is a savage operator. Ain't no man gonna test his ass. :yep

    Incorrect, sir.

    He was actually very healthy going into the fight and many saw it as a even fight.

    He was simply outclassed by the vastly better man in Andre Ward.

    Dawson and his team was telling the world how easy it was to make weight, evidence: The Road to Ward/Dawson 24/7 episode.

    Now that he got beaten up, we're going to use the weight excuse? Nope.

    He was simply beaten up, outclassed, outgeneraled.

    Them uppercuts really did that man in that night.

    Great great win for the Meister Andre S.O.G Ward

    MVC, who do you think hits harder, Wilder or Ward?
    I think it's close...

    Most unimaginative troll I've ever seen, zero subtlety. Yet people still fall for this garbage, beats me.

    It was a great win. That fight is what made iron chinned long time p4p candidate Dawson be called Glass Jawson.

    A two-handed Ward dominated Dawson and made him quit. People just don't want to give Ward credit because he's half Irish.
