What's your take on it? If Dawson wants to beat Dre then he MUST be better than he was Saturday night!
Hopkins exposed Dawson's weak left hand which is why Dawson had a hard time connecting on Hopkins. Because Hopkins was open to the left cross the whole night, and Dawson rarely threw it.
It's not to say Dawson doesn't have a good left hand, he's shown it in the past that he can throw the straight left with regularity when he was with Floyd Sr and Eddie Muhammad. It's something Scully needs to work on with Dawson. I know Steward emphasizes on a strong cross punch.
It'd be disappointing if Ward leaves 168 without fighting Bute which is surely the bigger fight.
If Bute gets by Froch cleanly then thats the best fight for Ward. After Bute Ward wouldnt have too may challenges left at 168.
im telling everyone now he didnt look good against karpency but nathen cleverly given his chance will beat dawson anyday that goes for cloud too
Dawson vs Cleverly would be a good fight. But I don't think Cleverly is ready.
Ward has to fight Bute first...that is IF Bute beats Froch, if Bute lose to Froch then yeah maybe he looks to Dawson and that 175 Division
LOL at someone saying "CLEVERLY WOULD BEAT DAWSON" hahahaha Oh yeah what ever happened to those idiots a few months back saying Sillakh would beat Dawson, all those fans probably changed their Profile by now lol :nonono:
Stop hyping these fighters who haven't been tested yet!
This is a magnificent fight but even with all the skills Dawson has I don't think his ready for Ward. Andre is just smarter than Dawson. This was evident in the Dawson Hopkins rematch.

lmao ok bro. whatever you say.
that feather-fisted bum wouldn't get his a$$ beat down by Dawson.
Would be a nice fight but it would hold more significance if Ward beat Bute and Dawson avenges the Pascal loss. But if they meet in the middle, as long as it doesnt adversely affect Chad..then why not.

dawson should be trying to avenge his first loss, before he receives another 1...
Yes. Andre won the olympics at 178lbs. With that said, Dawson also stated that he could make 168lbs. I remember talks of him going down to 68 for the super six actually.
This was the most unexpected call out ever. Props to Dawson though for wanting Ward, that's a huge challenge. And before the accusations come for Dawson "cherry picking a smaller dude", Ward has fought in the LHW division before.
