    Pascal isnt the only option

    As per Joe Degurdia

    Owner of Star Boxing also said that they're disappointed that talks with Adonis Stevenson have gone cold, said that venue or financial terms we're non-issues, as Smith wanted a title shot and he was willing to travel

    How funny would that be? Pascal taking on the better of the two Irish-American light heavies, Chickenson ducks yet another big fight. What a joke this guy is. Given his past, attitude and reluctance to take on big fights it's hard to understand how he actually has a fanbase.

    Chickenson doesnt have a fan base. He's the most hated boxer in Montreal.

    I can't speak for that... But he definitely has his fair share of fans in internet boxing circles.

    Pascal is probably done at the elite level, but he's a G. Willing to take tough fights and travel to opponent's backyard. And has a big mouth and knows how to sell his fights.
    Adonis is non of the above.

    I thought Pascal was gonna take it slow?
    Heck of a run for Smith. One big name after another.

    This sounds like a good match up if the Stevenson fight can't be made. I'd favor Smith at this point since Pascal has been in so many wars, especially the Kov beat downs. A fresher Pascal could have made for a hell of a fight though. Still a good name for Smith's resume should he win and continue his hot streak. A nice little upset for Pascal should he pull off the win.

    It's hard to imagine any boxer over age 30 coming back to top form after receiving two savage beatdowns from a very hard puncher.

    Pascal is a shitty option. Nobody wants to see this fight. I'm sure HBO would love a Joe Smith Chad Dawson fight as well after this.

    Dawson is as washed up as Pascal is and he's fighting Fonfara on the 4th of March
    Chad Dawson is in Montreal right now training alongside Eleider Alvarez. They help eachother for their respective bouts.

    Pascal fights everyone. Dawson, Hopkins x2, Froch, Kovalev x2, Gonzalez, Bute, Diaconu and now possibly Smith jr

    Nobody wants to see that fight but if Chad wins his next fight, don't be surprised to see Smith/Dawson on HBO after the Pascal fight, which is the point I was getting to.
