I don't know Pascal all that well but I didn't see him do anything impressive against Dawson.
Going back was a smart move, but I felt Dawson lost that fight more than Pascal won it. Had it not been stopped things might have got very interesting, but overall Chad just wasn't there that night.
Hopkins is a crafty old bastard. I don't like him one bit, but I call it like I see it. Hopkins style will **** this guy up, just like Pavlik and so many before.
Its certainly possible...
Bernard's stamina is still up in the air but I think Pascal's may be somewhat as well...he seemed to fighting in spurts against Dawson...
