Exactly. Remember how Hopkins and the gang threatened to sue the WBC right after the fight vs Pascal? :yep Shaw wants to emulate him, and get what he wants.
Money talks. B-Hop/Pascal is way bigger than the Dawson fight. And everyone's happy now... well, except Sad Chad.
Shaw is absolutely adamant to push through with the Dawson rematch as he saw a vulnerable Pascal in there, and he'll bring it to court before he lets the Hopkins rematch happen. The rematch clause is unfortunately solid, and in an even sadder turn of event HBO will give average Chad his next chance nobody gives a **** about. I just don't see Hopkins getting his deserved rematch, I see Chad getting his undeserved.
This messed up is really funny, every one has a different opinion of the winner of the three potentiel fight. That's why it's so interesting and the TV$$$ will jump in!
lets be honest here, this is good news for everyone other than chad and his fans. this fight was much more exciting, much more controversial and now much more meaningful. it is between the recognised best two fighters in the division and is quite frankly brilliant if pascal takes the fight. if not hopkins probs fights some bum for the title and makes history anyways!
