    Well how is it so bad for Floyd to agree to Martinez wanting to come down to 150 for a fight? Afterall he was the one challenging right?

    If Sergio says he'd make it, why was that such a big deal?

    Oh yeah, because people don't like Mayweather :hi:

    :patsch that has NOTHING to do with Ward vs. Dawson genius. Excellent retort! Way to back it up!! :lol: But therein lies your reason for this way of thinking. I don't care if Martinez goes down to 150, so long as he can make it effectively. So go wave at someone else. :roll:

    Dawson just said 168 is his natural weight over at the scene.

    What if he can't make it effectively? What the **** has that got to do with you? If an adult millionaire signs contracts based on advise from his doctors and trainers and his own feelings why are you bitching about it on an internet forum?

    Let's see he was born in San Francisco, and he fought Abraham in Southern California.

    What else you got?

    You asked what the difference was... he told you... and now you're just going to ignore it.

    i believe both are great fighters but Dawson opened his mouth a little too early when he said he can get down to 168 therefor you can't blame Ward for not going up

    I don't think anybody is blaming Ward, but it is a fact that Dawson would be better off at a higher weight and another location.

    It's not Ward's fault, but anyone without an agenda would say that a catchweight and neutral location would make for a better matchup/fight.

    Ward has done nothing wrong, but he would get a whole lot of credit if he had taken the fight at 175. There's nothing left for him at 168 anyway.
