Is Chad Dawson taking a risk fighting in Montreal ?

[REMOVED SHARK 97]

You probably think that Leonard got robbed against Duran in their first fight in Montreal... If Pascal is agressor and land more punches he will win, Montreal is not Las Vegas...

Yes that is what I am saying.

If he is the Aggressor and lands more punches he will win...

1. He wins because he won the fight rightfully
2. He wins because the city is backing him

Fighting elsewhere could cost him aka Kotelnik.

It's usually the other way round, Him challenging Chad in USA, but if he were to win he would win.

But if it were close you can still see how they would give it to Chad.

Ive been boxing for 30 years, i saw the fight many times, i even tried to give the fight to Floyd and just coulnd't, in that fight Castillo won and it's not even close, Floyd's team thought that Castillo was a easy target, they were wrong, he was harder to hit and was hitting Floyd harder, Floyd was surprised and lost control of that fight.

It was a close fight.

Castillo dropped the first four rounds, putting him in a deep hole. There were close rounds after that, Mayweather winning is possible.

Sure, but he also gave away the first four rounds, along with three late rounds. I don't care if he landed 400 punches. Doesn't change that fact.

Have you ever boxe in a ring with a pro, a difference of more than 100 power punches in a fight is a big difference, Floyd got hit by those punches he felt them, it was the first time of his career, he was in pain, trust me Floyd knows that he lost that fight.

Pascal should lost to Dawson, Pascal is not as good as Bute and Dawson wants to fight Bute after Pascal. Dawson fought some 40+ boxers that's the only problem i see with Dawson but at the same time he has so much boxing skills...

[*Boss*]

its always an extra risk fighting in a fighter's hometown, no matter what the location.

but...this is Pascal were talking about.

...I had Castillo beating Mayweather in a close fight too btw

Are you assuming that Pascal is not a good fighter ? The guy is no joke ...

You're not getting what I'm saying. I don't care if Castillo landed a compubox record of 800 punches. If you give up 7 rounds and don't knock a fighter down, you lost the fight. That's all there is to it. Sure he felt Castillo's power, but he also stole 3 late rounds in the process with one hand. And that was just enough to edge him out on the score cards.

But Dawson is the star here, so that's a bad comparison regardless. If Dawson takes enough clear rounds, he'll get the decision, just like guys like Tomasz Adamek and Timothy Bradley did in their opponents backyard. 8 rounds should be enough to get the decision comfortably.

My point is that Montreal just can't afford to robbed a star like Dawson we need big star like him... If Dawson get's robbed in Montreal, it would be a bomb for boxing in our town, people are working hard in Montreal to bring those big stars, they don't want them to be scared of the town.

There is always a possibility when you are fighting in another guy's home town.
