I got Andre ward destroying chad Dawson 2nite Dawson had a bad camp after getting outboxed every day by my fighter lionell Thompson he finished his camp by getting stretched by his other spar partner Edison Miranda then he wants to get mad at lionell and not pay him for the work he owes lionell 8000 dollars but we will whup his ass in a real fight after ward tax that ass
dawson was making some basic mistakes yesterday. leaning to the side with his right hand on his nuts. very sloppy. he fought like a dumbass, I thought he would have realised he needed his right hand up to protect his eye after that first left hook.
ward was VERY open to a right hook, but we saw none of that
Dawson landed some good right hooks early on but Ward adjusted, changed his rhythm and used feints.

Well Dawson was weight drained, his reflexes was gone, so was his speed, he couldn't see Ward's punches on top of that he had a poor training camp. He needs a new trainer who can help with the basics, and he needs to stay at 175.
To prepare for the straight right hand perhaps?
Sr already trained him, Dawson looked good but left him anyway.
He's not learning anything new under Scully, as a matter fact Scully is teaching Dawson how he's not suppose to box. Ward was giving Dawson all the angles to counter a southpaw, and Dawson couldn't do anything.
Dawson is 6'3 with a 76" reach, as Floyd Sr said he's suppose to box on the outside, use lateral movement, and lead with the jab. He is not using his height and reach well under Scully.
Why would Chad use Edison Miranda to prepare for Andre Ward?
WTF? That doesn't even sound right.

Dawson was just setting himself up for a loss. He needs to stay in 175, he needs a new trainer (either Floyd Sr or Steward) and a new team. I knew he was bullsh***ing when he said he had a great camp after the fight.

I asked that question when I first found out a few weeks ago.
remind me who ross thompson is?
been seeing these rumors several times now, wonder if it's truehe fought fernando vargas and vargas spit on him back in the day.
all i can say is, dawson needs to bring his A-game if he even wants to be competitive....ward has all the skills, the experience, and is mentally tough...i got ward all day
pissed off about money AAANd trying to hype his fighter?
yeah, it's hard to believe guys like that.
Buuuuut could be believable as well. Think about it, when was the last time Dawson was lower than 175? I guess all doubts will be settled tonight.
