The people who think weight made no diffrence are in denial

[Frank Ducketts]

first of all chad himself said he was eating he just had to diet so he was eating and we do know he would win at any weight from the dominating performance. The only reason Dawson started looking bad after round three is because he got HURT. You are spinning it probably because you picked Chad to win and want to justify being wrong. The whole camp said he was fine so why go to the built in excuse that Scully hates so much. If it was at 178 he might have survived a little longer that's it. Ward has a superior style. And all you poster trying to make excuses for him are pathetic. Just admit you where wrong for a change? How about that?

Ward did what he had to do, but don't act like Dawson wasnt affected by the weight loss at all so that you could preserve Pacquiaos excuse for draining Cotto. Fooh moron.

Rome, why are you trying so hard to argue against the weight-draining comments?

It's not an excuse, it's a fact.

Even if Dawson made the weigh no problem and was absolutely fine at the weight, you still think Ward gets full credit?

Yes I give Ward full credit for his masterclass performance against Dawson...

Roy jones, Oscar de la Hoya, and a plethora of other fighters have tried to drop weight and all ended up looking like **** by either quiting or getting stopped.

How many times do we need to see stuff like this before we realize weight is a huge factor. It's a reoccurring theme that happens everytime a fighter moves down in weight when he shouldn't.

The only exception that I've seen is Glenn Johnson going back to 168.
