    Pascal gave dawson a one sided boxing lesson

    Gotta disagree with you on that one dude.

    Dawson looked downright disinterested, and nothing that Pascal did was giving him "a boxing lesson". When Dawson finally turned it on in the 11th, he had Pascal shaken and was on his way to dropping him before the cut stopped it.

    You guys keep making excuses for Bad Chad. Pascal was in control the whole fight, clearly was winning big time on the cards, and Chad was flustered throughout. Pascal took the "0" away from Chad and took the RING belt from his waistline. I was cheering for Chad the entire fight, and nothing I saw showed me Chad was on the verge of winning.

    That right hand lead Pascal owns Chad with, Hopkins would **** Chad with that all night.

    I'll be glad to see the fight go ahead. Not sure if the old man can do it but I certainly wouldnt write him off.

    I dont know if Chad has it upstairs to beat BHop. He let Pascal take his title away. Forgot to fight, and got routed. His heart, to me, just doesnt seem large.

    He's got EVERYTHING he needs physically to pull a Taylor and then some. But will he fight 3 minutes a round? Something tells me, no.

    No chance! Dawson has always shown the same deficiencie, oh, and looked lackadaisical last week as well!!! It's an inherant problem.

    Dawson takes rounds off, doesn't have much power, and B-Hop can deal with southpaws pretty easily (unless you're a really unconventional operator!)

    B-Hop will shut Dawson down, problem with Chad is, he isn't that good :deal

    Pascal caught Bhops with a similar right hands in their first fight ..The diffrence with Chad is his height ..Its going ro be a much diffrenet fight for Hopkins .

    If Chad somehow wakes up in the morning and becomes a killer overnight, Hopkins ride into the sunset is over. Dawson is the goods.

    Just, wow. Not much at all upstairs. Not much at all.

    Exactly. I'm predicting a walk in the park for B-Hop. Chad remains as he was before the Pascal fights: arguably the most overrated fighter today.

    I never bother with Bute's fights.... He's too "Homey" for me in Canada... Plus, L. Bute is being paid good bank being a home-boy cheerying his foe's.... I fully see his light.... Why screw with a working formula? I haven't recorded a 'Bute' fight as of yet..... TRUTH!
