This is why Floyd was smart not to take the 154lbs GGG bait. They would call him a coward and try to shame him into taking the fight, then when he signs the contract they'll make fun of him and produce memes of GGG knocking him out. AND finally, when he schools GGG, they'll **** all over him for 'draining' GGG despite GGG offering to fight at 154, and despite the fact that Floyd can't even make 154.

It's unfortunate but these idiots will never give Ward the credit for dethroning Dawson.

Yup, this is boxing in the internet age.

Wow. You're like the modern day Nostradamus aincha?

On the second part though, whilst I still credit Dawson with being a decent scalp for Ward (and La bomba too, fwiw, but thats a different story) there is no doubt that, voluntary or no, coming down in weight took a big toll on Chad. There were numerous reports even prior to the fight that Dawson was nowhere close to 100%.
