    Will Ward still fight Dawson if Chad deliberately come in overweight?

    This seems to be a trend these days.. Chad hasnt fought at 168 in what? 7-8 years??
    Ward seems to have high morals, and no matter how much offer to pay him, he wont fight Dawson.. No matter the pressure HBO tries to put on him..
    I think Ward is all business about his career decisions and wont tolerate that kind of nonsense.. But who knows, what do you guys think??

    I dont believe Chad when he says he can make 168 easily.. Weigh in is gonna be very interesting.. I think Chad may try to pull the ol Broner/Gonzales/Castillo lol

    We shall see tho.. Hopefully he makes 168 as healthy as possible and put up a great fight.. I'd be more than pissed if he couldnt make weight and the fight is called off

    I don't think the fight would be called off. But I definitely know that the belts wouldn't be on the line, so Dawson would've came down in weight for essentially no reason. I know some people will say, "at least the fight will be more competitive", which is true. But then what was the point of accepting the fight then?

      I have a feeling that Ward is a little diva punk.

      He loves for things to go his way only, and I feel his trainer is the same way and they'd both pull out if Chad came in overweight.

        Not happening. Chad's a pro. He's coming in on weight.

          If Dawson doesn't make weight the fight should be cancelled. We seen too much of this lately and it is a disadvantage to take extra money to fight a bigger guy.
