    Then explain to me why Bute deserves more praise than him? He was almost KOd in his first fight with Andrade and his level of opposition hasn't been
    great either.

    Dawson is a clear level above Bute and would outbox him to a clear UD win.

    And what about Dawson looking fast and good against old-timers? Dawson doesn't even remember what it's like to fight someone his own age.
    See, I can have silly points too.

    Pascal has heart. That single thing could be enough to bother Dawson.
    Of course, he's young, fast and likes to flurry. That could also bother Dawson. Pascal has of course some flaws and on a bet, I would pick Dawson to win.

    Bute was ill then. You can watch again the second fight, that's when he's not ill. ;)
    I don't think their resume will tell us who would win.

    Fighting someone who lost clearly to Carl Froch must be giving Chad sleepless nights. He's a far better boxer than Pascal, it'd be a comfortable decision.

    Pascal is a live dog against Dawson. He's got talent also. His wild style could be dangerous for Dawson.

    Dunno about Pascal beating Dawson (unlikely) but for sure Pascal has a much better chance than Bute.

    And I disagree with the ones saying that between 168 and 175 there isn't much of a difference. Even if it's just a matter of hidratation, it IS a difference. But it's not only about that. If making 168 was easy, you'd have seen Dawson fighting some of the better SMW, as light heavyweight is a dead division.

    There is a difference but not as much as the lower weights. Pascal moved up and beat Diancou. Calzaghe moved up and beat Hopkins. These are big men to begin with.

    And the reason why Dawson chose to stay at LHW instead of going down to SMW is because of $$. The top dogs were all old but yet offered more money potential. Not to mention the fact that he could probably beat them. He's already bagged Johnson and Tarver twice. He wanted Hopkins. I'm sure he wanted Jones.
