Dawson apparently asked to do a catchweight once he realized he couldn't really make 168, and Ward wanted none of it.
Part of my point with Ward in general...great fighters test themselves...he always wanted everything in his favor 100%...smart as far as 'winning' goes, but as far as greatness as a fighter goes, I can't co-sign that.
For example, if Ward did to Kov in Russia, what Alvarez did to Kov tonight, who could hate on him? Of course that is an extreme example, but the point overall is that Ward was a bit of a diva who never really tested himself (although I do give him credit for moving up and facing Kov twice)

Matter of fact, nobody in boxing history, regardless of color has achieved Floyd’s financial success. Which makes the point you’re trying to make even dumber.

Alvarez makes it official. Kovalev is a beaten man. Amazing to see Kovalev knocked out in that way. If I was Kovalev I would retire

Originally posted by hitking View PostI think GGG is a better fighter than Kovalev. But I think Kovalev is more talented. Kovalev is a better technical boxer. He’s better defensively. He’s quicker. And he brings the same power. Where GGG gets him is in heart, will, and chin.
