Obviously no credit can be taken away from Ward. He fought the bigger guy, and showed lots of heart and skill. Whereas Dawson is another story altogether. Weight drained or not (which he didn't look physically), he had this "look" from the very beginning like he really didn't want to be there. Hardly a jab thrown in anger.... very few punches thrown except in rare spurts toward the middle rounds. He has the size and the skill to have made a HELL of a lot better fight than he did. In comparison, the Matthysse-Ajose fight on the other network was 10 times better. Ajose got knocked out at the end..... but he gave a great account of himself. Dawson has had some great fights, and is still a great fighter.... but there's no excusing his effort last night. Chalk it up to a bad day, but it was still a shitty effort.
Told you guys Ward would have an easy time. Dawson is a flake, he's talented but has swapped trainers every other fight. Ward is steady, not pretty to watch but steady.
Ward is on another level and adapts so well to any style put in front of him. The rumor now is that they want Joe Calzaghe to stop talking shit and put up or shut up against Ward. Also I think the Hopkins fight might have taken something out of Dawson like alot of Hopkins fights do ask Jermaine Taylor. Bad Chad needs to take on an easy mandatory to get some of his confidence back.
