    It's great if the winner fights Pascal but why the **** do they give him a interim belt? What's the point? They are a joke and Jose Sulaiman is a scumbag.

    Yeah, plus I don't know if he will really fight Dawson (the likely winner) ? Because after the Froch fight Pascal refused a fight with Taylor (before JT fought Froch) saying he wasn't ready. Dawson is bigger and a better boxer than Taylor, will he be ready this time? I mean fighting Diaconu will not prepare him to box with a guy who has elite boxing skills :huh

    Once Dawson wins he will beg Hopkins and not even consider Pascal

    Of course Sillyman's a scumbag, but that's like saying the sky is blue. It's true, and painfully obvious.

    Dawson's going to beat Johnson and go after Hops or Roy while Pascal satisfies his rematch obligation with Diaconu. Don't be surprised in the slightest if Roy gets that fight.

    I'll be pissed if Dawson fights Jones. He has said he won't, and he needs to stay true on that.

    Chad needs to handle business against Johnson, then move on to either Hopkins or Pascal. Dawson/Hopkins is the best fight that could be made at 175, but Bernard has only recently begun to show interest in it.

    Pascal would get outclassed by Dawson ... and Glen Johnson would find a way to lose a decision to Pascal but not before putting him in serious danger a couple of times.

    God the WBC is ******ed. What possible justification do they have for this?

    The champion, Pascal, is defending the title next month against the mandatory challenger imposed by the WBC themselves. If they wanted him to fight Dawson or Johnson instead. They should have made that fight a title eliminator.

    **** sake...

    Johnson almost knocked Dawson out in the first fight, was cheated by the criminal judges.
