Comments Thread For: Ward-Dawson Encounter Halts Stampede For WBC Title

[thepower]

I personally think this fight is being rushed too soon...Ward should empty his division, while Chad kills off Tavoris and Pascal, and by the time they both finish, Ward can move up and make a megafight!

I disagree. **** waiting. We as boxing fans need to "wait" all the time for fights. Remember Gamboa v Lopez? We were told to wait for this one to build. Look what happened there.

Get the fight made and give us what we want to see!

How much do you think he gets to fight Ward?

Don't know but it'll be much more than what's on offer at 175. Its not that hard to understand why he's chasing Ward.

I dont know exactly what he's getting paid and neither do you you ****flaps. Stop trying to act like you're some kind of "insider"....lol. No one buys it.

Ward is a bigger money fight than anyone in Dawson's weight class. Its common sense. Stop trying to defend your pro-black double standards

You should take your own advice. You don't even know how much Dawson gets paid on average. They don't pay you more because you're fighting someone good. In fact, most HBO fighters get paid the same amount regardless of who they're fighting. It's simple things like that fact that you should take in account before spouting off what YOU think and then turning into a female (see bolded) when you get called out on it.

Bottom line, you don't know. At All. As usual.

So Chad would get paid the same amount by HBO if he fought, say, Check_Hooks?

I think so although pacdbest might bring in more butts in seats.

Dawson signed a long-term contract with HBO about 2-3 years ago. They aren't paying him by the number of people buying tickets. Or they wouldn't be paying him at all.

Bottom line, he'll earn more money fighting Ward than anyone at his weight class. Thats why hes moving down.

I know you're trying desperately to paint this picture of Dawson being this noble warrior who's going down to 168 out of the goodness of his heart just because he's black but sorry, once again, not buying it.

You don't know.

Second, I'm not painting Dawson as any noble warrior. Why are you always making up stuff? It's a little creepy. I think he's fighting Ward because it's a lot less dangerous then fighting some of the more powerful 175lbers. So please, don't buy what I'm not selling. Kids and their imagination. Embarrassing.

Sure. Ward is much easier than the likes of Tavaris Cloud and Cleverley. Thats the reason.

Not easier. Less dangerous. You don't comprehend well. Ever, strangely enough. Would you rather face a dangerous puncher or a dangerous boxer who, with a win, would catapult you up the pound for pound rankings?
