    #2 I'd rather sandpaper my nipples off than watch these two fight
    I think that Dawson has speed and power enough to create some difficulties for Ward. I also think that his technique is better than what some might say. Actually, I think he has a good technique, he has one big flaw though: He's not mind steady and he's easy to unsettle. That can play big against a guy like Ward.

    Dawson's style is the main reason Pascal beat him and the main reason Cloud would demolish him. You just can't fight one armed the way he does, keep giving up height & reach, and smothering his own punches and win vs any and every style. If you press a guy like Ward he'll retreat and walk you into shots. If you press a guy like Cloud he'll press right back and if you're packing a .22 vs a guy who's using a .45 then you better either have a lot of ammo and fire off quickly and accurately or just hope the guy with the .45 runs out of shells.

    If you struggle with Hopkins why do you want to fight Ward? I guess he's trying to bank on that Ward may or may not have a chin. Is Ward fighting him at light heavy or is Dawson moving down?

    HBO is interested in the fight.

    Dawson has physical advantages over Ward, as long as the weight drain doesn't hurt him too much if they fight at a catch weight.
