the people pushing the story are miranda's handlers and some guy who claims dawson shorted his fighter on sparring money (three or four grand, i think.) they're not neutral. no neutral sources have come out and said it.
if he were knocked out cold he wouldn't be ready for a fight a week later. i've never been out cold, but i've seen it plenty. you go to a hospital and go under observation. there would be medical records for all of this. he wouldn't be cleared to fight.
the signs point to all of that just being a rumor.
additionally, dawson was a top 10 p4p fighter at the time, and the LHW champion of the world. losing a few paychecks from sparring sessions would amount to a whole lot less than the fights he'd be able to get into if he were to actually knock dawson cold in sparring. he probably gets a few grand to spar. if he gets back on HBO or showtime he's looking at a six figure payday.
Dawson is a known liar, and Scully isn't being honest either.
