I'm semi looking forward to Dawson/Ward

[Kirkland Laing]

It's got Bradley-Alexander written all over it, right down to HBO getting excited over it. It's even going to be PPV apparently. HBO think they're going to build a new star. Neither guy has any charisma or a particularly exciting fighting style nor does either guy ever knock people out on a regular basis. It looks like the new head of HBO boxing is trying to outdumb the previous one.

(Having said that it'll now probably be FOTY with a tenth rounf one-punch KO.)

Hopefully Ward being the one getting KTFO. I still haven't forgiven him for schooling Froch

[DavilaJones]

I don't see Dawson KOing anyone out there. I like Ward and I understand why that SoG thing would rub a lot of people the wrong way as it did me but at the end of the day he's seems to be a fun lax guy who is masterful technician in the ring.

I am really looking forward to this fight and hope it is on over here on Box Nation. Ward is a quality fighter and is so good he leaves Bute/Kessler/Froch to fight amongst themselves just to challenge him. Hope he comprehensively beats Dawson who needs to beat top fighters to earn the big money and acclaim that he desires so much.

[THE PHILOSOPHER]

A stinker of a fight. Dawson simply won't do enough. 168 is a bad idea.

[Hulk]

Anyone really believe Dawson is going to win, or dominate ?

I'd be very surprised at anything except a 116-112 or more victory for Ward.

Its top level boxing between two very good fighters so I'll be watching, but due to their track records I side with the majority in expecting a rather boring affair in terms of action.

However in terms of high stakes and drama it will be exciting much the way Bernard Hopkins fights have been exciting these last few years for their merit more so than their actual fighting.
