Ive never been impressed with him. maybe it was him losing to Froch, maybe it was him getting rocked multiple times by Omar Pittman, maybe it was him chickening out of a Miranda fight, maybe it was the fact that his only claim to fame is beating Adrian Diaconu...but Ive never thought much of him.
Is Chad Dawson taking a risk fighting in Montreal ?

For exemple: Dawson lands 175 power shots on Pascal while he only give 65, and at the same time Pascal in "running from" Dawson. Trust me, in those conditions you would be screaming all over the place that Dawson got robbed in Montreal...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.Comment

He's not that good, but he's a good athlete and a tough guy, he fought Dianonu with a seperated shoulder... he took the Froch fight for experience...Ive never been impressed with him. maybe it was him losing to Froch, maybe it was him getting rocked multiple times by Omar Pittman, maybe it was him chickening out of a Miranda fight, maybe it was the fact that his only claim to fame is beating Adrian Diaconu...but Ive never thought much of him.
as for Miranda, Kessler also refused to fight him, Bute took the fight and destroyed Miranda !Last edited by Megamasterking; 08-09-2010, 01:25 PM.Comment

but thats not fair, Bute is an offensive monster
I think Pascal is a decent fighter, but I definitely havent seen anything about him that suggests he would give much trouble to Dawson.Comment

Cool dude I see what you're saying.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.
Montreal has to do more than give them both of a fair chance, they have to entice people and boxers to Canada.
In a place like the UK it has its fair share of Robberies but it doesn't stop fighters coming.

I hope it will be a good fight, if Pascal is able to pressure Dawson for 12 rounds, it could be a great fight.
Did Dawson got in a fight where he was pressured for 12 rounds with a young boxer in his prime ? I didn't saw all of his fights...Comment

Big money is boxing weekness, boxers should always have a fair chance to win, boxing is not an easy sport, i didn't turn pro because i knew " and was told..." that without the right team "Big money" my chances were very slim.Comment
