Fact is that Hopkins exposed Pascal tonight, yet Pascal beat Dawson. Styles win fights and the sad thing is that the next fight more than likely will be a mandatory rematch with Chad Dawson vs. Jean Pascal. I believe Chad Dawson would actually win in the rematch vs. Jean Pascal. If this happens, Jean Pascal is sort of out of the picture, but Hopkins is still floating around. I definitely could see Chad Dawson giving Hopkins another opportunity to win the World Title, setting up a Dawson vs. Hopkins fight. This could also happen sooner than later, because Jean Pascal may elect to give up one of his titles (IBO) in order to get out of the mandatory rematch with Chad Dawson. This would set up a potential fight between Chad Dawson and Bernard Hopkins for a vacant title. The sad thing is that I believe that Chad Dawson would be much too quick and smart to beat Hopkins. Hopkins exposed the fact that Pascal is a one sided fighter relying solely on his power. His skills aren't up to par compared to Hopkins or Dawson, despite his previous victory against Dawson!
Hopkins never wanted anything of Dawson. Dawson isn't smart though, he has clear ADD and is mentally weak.
