He called out the SMW champ at, agreed to fight at 168, in the champs backyard, throughout the build up he was respectful, went into the fight, did his best, was completely outclassed and also out of shape, after the fight, gave full props to Ward. He may not have won but throughout this whole fight and buildup he's conducted himself with utter class, and was willing to take on a very tough challenge. Wish there were more like him about.
Class? Take on the challenge? The man ****ing quit. I don't care if he was respectful, he stood up and told the ref. he didn't want to continue. I don't know why you wish their were more quitters around.
Unfortunately now he's in the lowly company of Roberto Duran, Erik Morales, Chavez, Sonny Liston, Mike Tyson..
Dawson looked like he had cement shoes on.He didn't do himself any favors,except to pick up a pay cheque for he and Fat Gary Shaw to split.Pathetic performance-but typical of him.
