well Dawson already has an April HBO date secured. If Pascal isn't ready by then, i think Dawson may turn to Cloud.
Good for Froch resume But seriously the lost to Froch have been the best thing to happens to Pascal he gain confidence by taking Froch punch and show a lot of people his warrior heart.
Or Bute. Interbox boss is going to New York city this coming week to try to prepare Bute's next fight. HBO wants Pavlik-Bute but now that Pascal is injured, maybe Bute-Dawson starts to make sense. Jean Pascal will need some serious rest after tomorrow, maybe a surgery. Each time that he fought too many times in a one year period, his right shoulder caused him big problems. I hope his team has finally larned a lesson. Instead of cashing his belt, he will be resting at home for several months. :?
He lost 2-3 rounds, while he lost 4-5 rounds in the first fight..., so he did better this time, and thats amazing considering the major shoulder injury :deal! Btw, next in line is NOT Dawson, Pascal has fought 4 time since the Froch fight (1 year ago). He needs a break, he need a easy fight right now before fighting Dawson or Cloud.
Lemieux turn 21 in a couple of days. They will need to put a stronger guys in front of him soon cause only 2 guys has seen the third round yet. Sam Soliman maybe?
Dont look for Cloud to fight Dawson anytime soon. Now that they have a belt I actaully look for them to avoid fighting Dawson, they werent to excited to fight him before they picked up the belt.
That was a hell of a fight! Man Pascal is providing some good stuff to boxing fan. I thought the fight was much closer and that it could've gone either way...Props to both fighter. And that shoulder was hurting me too at the end of the 10th... Nice comeback from Lucas too. The guy he fought was not really dangerous but Lucas showed he was in good shape (what a monster hook at the end to finish it!). I don't expect the former champ to fight against elite again but he sure can entertain fans with good local fight (Demers for example).
surely THE fight is bute v pascal. but looked outstanding in the last 2 bouts. pascal, thrilling fans in 3 wars in a one year period - not forgetting the defense vs branco and the KO of nievas, also.
A couple years ago many people labeled him a fraud, and said he was scared of Miranda. Man, times have changed.
I dont understand these rematches of fights where it was clear which fighter is better. Fights like this or Dawson Tarver or Johnson. If it was a draw or a controversial decision then ok but when you lose by wide UD you should get an immediate remach.
Haha, I cant believe people are still spouting this nonsense about Dawson being scared of Diaconou. Imm glad Dawson has twice said F the belts and gone on and fought the best guy available instead.
