As the fight is at Super Middle - Ward and Ward. Not sure how bad Chad can make the weight and be effective.

As I have said before the best thing for boxing would be for Dawson to win meaning the super middleweight division wouldn't be monopolised and dictated by Ward who could constantly use the excuse 'I am the man I don't have to fight outside Calafornia.'

Lets not criticise too much before he has even started his reign as unified champ properly yet.

The quicker Ward loses the better. I hope Dawson wins. But coming down in weight will be against him.

It'll be a replay of Ward vs Allan Green.

He'll look to maul his way in close, to take away the taller man's reach advantage.

If the ref is weak, then it'll be horrible to watch and will be UD12 for Ward.

Is there any legit reason Dawson is moving down a weight ??? I don't recall in recent years or ever a world champion moving down a weight class.

Dawson is a useful fighter and I thought like many other fighters Ward would be eager to become a 2 weight World Champ.

Has anyone seen the thread over in the Current scene. It says there was a really heated press conference and the excitement all came from Ward's trainer and Dawson's promoter having a few words with each other while Dawson and Ward just sit there being boring as hell, and then they have a face off. It was about as heated as a weekend in the Antarctic.

I've seen the video on youtube and it was lame - Virgil basically taunting Dawson for not saying anything.

These guys are pathetic. You'd have thought they are already megastars, judging by their distinct lack of effort in showing any sort of personality or interest. Great way to sell a fight, idiots.

Don't think I'll be watching this 'live'. Will be a record and watch over a bacon sarney. It could be worse, it could be Ward V Hopkins. I don't think Andre Ward will ever be on my 'can't miss' list.

Ward to win in a frustrating to watch fight over the distance. Chad will be fuming with the result.
