Ive gone against the grain and voted Ward by KO.
Whilst he isn't the greatest knockout artist, his recent talk has been based around "Proving i'm the p4p best" instead of "proving im the best at 168". It looked pretty close that he was going to knock down Froch at least once or twice during those middle rounds when Froch, and Froch has a granite chin... i'm not sure how good a comparison it would be to compare Froch's chin to Dawsons, but you may also say that Dawson's totally different style wont allow for it.. but I disagree. I think he also said that he has focused more on his KO power now rather than his tactical ability for his fans and for his legacy.
I think Ward feels he has something more to prove to the world, and at 168 he knows he has a great platform to showcase it... so I feel he may go for the KO, even despite Dawson's rival tactical ability.
Just my thinking though
