It was obvious Dawson felt the seven pound difference. He couldn't get any of his punches off and around the 6th, he started resorting to holding. At '75 he uses his jab more and gets off combinations here and there, but regardless, Ward and Hill's game plan... I'm starting to think he and Mayweather should be co-p4p.

Weight was an issue, no doubt...

Originally posted by Cutthroat View PostWeight didn't matter that much, Ward simply outboxed him, Dawson never fought a guy like Ward. Ward's superior boxing ability allowed him to land CLEAN shots to the chin, it allowed him to even neutralize Dawson's jab.
When they asked Dawson how Ward took away his jab he said he didn't know and he's just a great fighter.
