Comments Thread For: Andre Ward Punishes Chad Dawson For Ten Round TKO

[jbpanama]

There's fighters out there for him to face at 168 and 175. There's still Dirrell at 168, Cloud or Pascal at 175. I would really like to see him and Dawson fight at 175, where Dawson would be at 100%

At 175 it would be the same, This Andre Cat, has Too much TALENT!!!

I pretty much have it the same although I don't like heavyweights so I wouldn't have the Klits but they probably do belong there after dominating the game for so long. Would love to see Floyd vs Matthysse & Martinez vs Golovkin. Bradley vs Marquez & Ward vs Dirrell.

Those are all great match ups but I don't think the public would let Floyd fight Matthysse right now altho I agree it would be a good fight.

Based on your very whack logic Ali, Louis, Hagler and others wouldn't be eligible for a P4P list. P4P is based on dominance not division jumping. Ali is on everybodies P4P All time list and so is Hagler and others. The only one who would dispute that is a person that knows absolutely nothing about boxing.

No you're logic is weak. You can compare today with back then at all. Catch weights were rare then, everyone knows that. Everyone fought everyone. HW came in all shapes and sizes so did MW, and WW.. Today there more weight classes and catch weights, much easier to move up or down now...Thats common sense.. All was p4p even though he fought at HW look at him in his younger days compared to his older days, at first he was a light HW/super MW then be became full blown HW..

I say Dawson was to weak to fight as an amatuer boxer I drained myself to make wieght one time I was weak as hell I got stopped and moved up to the next wieght divison i won 50 straight bouts after that. Just letting you people who have never laced gloves that when you weak in that ring you can't do nothing your legs are basically gone from the opening bell. Just my experience on that issue. Dawson should have stated I want a rematch at 175

LOL Chad was mentally beatin going into this fight at the weigh in. I kept pointing it out yesterday. It was easy to see that Chad was unsure of himself and how he'd perform at 68. He was so dry he couldn't even utter a word back at Ward during the face off...

You may be right. I didn't see the weigh in. However, if Dawson was having difficulty making the weight and didn't feel like he could compete because of the weight drain, he should have called the fight off in advance. I hate it when fighters talk trash about how well they feel and how great they are going to perform during the buildup to a fight and then makes excuses about the weight afterwards.

Maybe! But I still want to see him fight a Chad Dawson at a 100%. At any weight I feel Ward would be hell, but I want to see the Dawson with the high work rate, with the great stamina and the one who takes a better shot.

P4P is simply a way of comparing fighters who fight at different weight classes. It has nothing to do with a fighter's abilty to move up or down in weight. You don't see the Klitschkos moving down to cruiserweight, but they are still worthy of being ranked in the top 10 P4P.

Everyone has their opinions about the P4P rankings (and that is all they are, opinions). Before the Ward/Dawson fight, my top five P4P were: Mayweather, Martinez, Andre Ward, J.M. Marquez and Pacquaio. It doesn't change after this fight. However, if Chavez Jr. beats Martinez next week, I would make Ward number 2.

Silly theory, Heavyweight are Heavyweights man. They don't have a choice they came in all shapes and sizes. When you're dealing with middleweights and light HW's they have choices. Ward can fight anywhere from 162-178 Easy! He has a choice. When you have fighters out here racking up titles in 4 or 5 weight classes hats what the definition of p4p is..

I dont think it ould have mattered. Ward outclasses dawson at any weight. Ward way to talented.

Golovokvin would beat Ward much stronger fighter than Ward. Wards punches won't do nothing to his iron chin. He will break Ward down with thoses vicious body punches he throws

Ok then for the sake of dummying it down let's go with the Klitchsko Brothers. According to you because they can't move up or down their ineligible for te P4P list? B-Hop who is still actively fighting was P4P Top 3 for years while fighting @ middle-wt.
