Is Anybody Giving Dawson A Chance Against Ward

[LEATHERF8CE]

IMO This is a winnable fight for Dawson. Keeping Ward on the outside will lead Dawson to well controlled fight. Ward is going to have to get inside in order to do work, I can't see him winning an outside battle against Dawson. Dawson very well defensive minded fighter did a great job against Hopkins, not allowing him to come inside and do what Hopkins does best. Ward has always had his ways against his opponents, but what separates Dawson from them is his defense, IMO Dawson defense will trouble Ward. I'm really surprised at the betting line for this fight. +245 for Dawson. I'm hoping it will hit 300 by fight time... thoughts anyone??

I am. Dawson has a chance in any fight he goes into.

It depends on how strong he is at 168.

Going to be a damn good fight.

[DLT]

Hell yeah. Im actually calling for the upset. As long as Chad can handle the weight, I think this could be a major backfire on Ward

I'm sure Dawson will be ok at that weight. I'm really convinced that if he had any little doubt about not being as strong at 168, he would of never made the fight....

yep. i don't know even know why he's considered the underdog.

Agree 100%

[Sttag]

Yes, to me this is a pick 'em fight. I'd love for Ward to dominate but I think Dawson is gonna time Ward and make it hell.

[New England]

if he's healthy at the weight (which i think he will be,) he has a chance against anybody in the world

he needs to let his hands go this time around. he's been on the cusp of becoming an elite p4p fighter, but he just doesnt let his damn hands go.

if he throws enough punches and takes enough risks i think he's got a good chance of winning.
