Dawson looked very weak, like he had nothing. Hard to drain down to 168lbs. Good as Ward is, dont forget Dawson came down 7lbs for that fight. I think Ward would of still won at 175 but itd of been closer. Dawson had nothing there, he looked so weak. Ward made it look easy though, he beat up Dawson. I dont know where hes going next though, hes in a bad situation when it comes to big name opponents, bit like Roy Jones was for much of his career! Where does he go next?
Technically, Ward is second to only Floyd for me. Everything he does he does brilliantly, his footwork was impressive, stepping into the jab, circling away towards the left to fire a right on the inside and ducking so Dawson couldnt land his left down the middle. His feints, opened Dawsons right side up, angling left hooks, the hooks to the body, the hard jabs. He knocked Dawsons jab down so early on as well Dawson didnt know what to do and by the 5th he was purely on the defensive (Dawson I mean). Ward Showed he is a complete fighter on that showing, great fighter.
Did anyone see the Adamek fight? Hell of a brawl that! Wont spoil it incase anyone hasnt seen it, go and have a look on here for it, cracking fight.
Well done Bellew as well, good win that and a good name on his record. Its hard to not like Bellew, hes a proper fighter. Was impressed with his head movement/defensive work. Interesting where he goes next as well!
Seen Klitschko and on that performance, Haye would knock him out. He looks very easy to get to now and I think Haye would get to him as long as it lasted. Thats if it happens of course.
