Ward VS Dawson in the works....

[shza]

The only thing that leads me to believe Dawson has a chance is that Ward hasn't used a new game plan in something like his last five fights so it gives Dawson a really good odds at getting the right tactics in place.


Good fight though ... I hope some of the other SMW's move up too.

It's a good tactical fight. I know some aren't excited about the style match-up, but I disagree. They should do it in Oakland in the fall.

I've wanted this fight since the Super 6 ended. I was really leaning in favor of Dawson before, but I'm finding myself more and more persuaded by people pointing to Ward's incredible level of determination and will to win. I still do think Dawson has nearly all of the physical and athletic advantages -- speed, power, height, reach, reflexes. It's about as close to a 50/50 I can think of at the elite levels.

And if they make it in Oakland, I will be at ringside for sure.
