    That's because it was in Canada. Had this fight taken place here in the states, they'd be lucky to fill a bingo hall.

    One thing is for sure. After his (Dawson's) performance on Saturday, I will definitely not pay to see him. :-(

    So its our fault? LOL. Dawson fought like a scared twat! It would had been an easy night for him. All he had to do was actually throw punches! Everytime he opened up, he had Pascal in trouble. ESPECIALLY in the 11th round.

    Why would I risk it and pay to see a repeat of his Sat night performance? Us as fans pay for the entertainment value of it. He did not entertain me on Saturday.

    They can pack in anything up to 20,00 for hockey games.

    But it's around 15,000 for Boxing or MMA events.

    You're not giving Pascal the credit he deserves. Dawson fought like a scared twat cause of Pascal.

    I give Pascal much credit. He made me a fan on Saturday night. I just expected a whole lot more from Dawson. When he stopped Pascal in his tracks with that uppercut late in the rounds, why didnt he follow up? When he had Pascal hurt against the ropes in the 11th, why did he let off the gas?

    Pascal ****ing sucks, dude I'm not trying to be a dick, but he won a technical decision in his hometown for God's sake, you act as if he beat the hell out of him and "took his belts". If they fight 10 times Dawson wins at least 7. I understand he's one of "ya'll", but dude is hardly what you are trying to build him as. He ran, ran, ran, ran, rushed in threw a flurry end of round. As the fight went on it was rest, run, rest, rest, run, rush in with half a flurry. Sadly that was more than Dawson was willing to do for whatever reason, but to act as if Pascal beat him into submission or somehow dictated that Dawson fight the way he did is shortsided. Pascal is a B fighter who had the cards fall right on a given night, he will be beaten soundly by the elite of this division, IMO.

    Because he was surprise to see one of his punch touching Pascal =o)... Dawson is good but doesn't have that work rate you know against Johnson it was almost the same thing that's why I predicted Pascal to win

    The Bell Centre for hockey is 21 273. Every game it's packed with that same number so we're use to it...

    For boxing, in the past they've already filled it with over 18 000 fans (back in 1998). They could probably squeeze in close to 19 000 if they wanted to....
