Comments Thread For: Dawson: I'm Not Worried, I Have a Rematch Clause

[Shabba Rank$]

Chad needs to go find a heart or he needs to take shots of adrenaline before the fight...

Only time he stepped up the action was when he was hurt and in the 11th when Pascal looked almost out of it...

So that wouldn't be considered heart right?

dawson is just not as good as advertise,,,, thats all

[-EX-]

Dawson was pressing the fight all night long. Pascal lunged in and flurried and went back to his bike. Dawson was the aggressor. The only thin he didn't do is be more busy. He outlanded Pascal and threw less than him.

I guess if you consider that pressing the fight...he was just following him around the ring flickering his jab at times...and Chad puts very little pop on his shots...

So that wouldn't be considered heart right?

Pascal was in bad shape before the 11th...Chad had plenty of opportunities...it just annoys me that he has the skills but will do whatever it takes not to engage heavily...I like Chad but he cudda did more, WAY more...

chad show some heart n effort and you woulda won dont make excuses cuz you didnt do nothen to win except ure burst in the 11th were you had him and didnt finish him

I'm not worred, I have a rematch clause? That shows how much he cared about this fight...

Tonight's lesson: Fight for the whole fight, and not the last 3 rounds...

Hopefully the rematch happens this year. I got Dawson in the rematch.

Dawson will get hurt in a rematch, Pascal is now more confident, he was fighting a #6 P4P ! Pascal was faster than many people thought, i will also add that Bute is better than Pascal so, Let's get it on !

Chad has to beat on himself for losing this fight. He let Pascal off the hook the whole second half of the fight.....Pascal was tired and throwing shots after picking a second wind of energy at different moments. Chad definitely had Pascal hurt and out on his feet with the flurry in the 11th. Dawson's uppercut rocked Pascal until the headbutt occurred. If the rematch happens Dawson needs to more aggressive and throw more shots while hitting to the body....Pascal just looked busier throwing more punches even though some punches were not connecting all the time....had this fight continued without the headbutt, chad could have either knocked him in that 11th or if headed in the 12th round.....but still Chad could ? if he would have left him off the hook like he did throughout the fight....hopefully this will spark some fire in Chad to come back strong and destroy him next time....I think Chad has not had anyone be almost the same level of speed which could have played why he was cautious....next time no excuses just take care of business

[trufightfanatic]

let me say this about the probability of a rematch. If there is going to be a rematch it needs to be the next fight for both of them. Reason being if Pascal gets a fight with either of the guys that he is aying he wants next, there will be no point in a rematch after he gets his ass handed to him by either Calzaghe, BHop or Bute. That lunging in s*#t wont work against a fighter that lets his hands go. Hell, Dawson had him backing up all night and is hands weren't even busy. So , Chad will only truly get a shot at redemption if that rematch iimmediate. Once Pascal, gets ****d by someone else ,critics wil say that he wasn't the same fighter hat he was when he beat Dawson. If Dason lets his hands go he just out classs Pascal eaily. To me, Pascal has always fought sloppy, he is,never was and never will be anything like a pime RJJ.

You'd think an undefeated fighter who could unify 2 belts and could have a huge fight with Bute would actually care

But i guess for Chad that wasnt enough incentive to care.....go figure

[Ismael30]

I love the confidence, I think he will be back stronger then ever

but much respect to Pascal, he fought his ass off and deserved that win, he had a great strategy against Dawson

Sicko, you need to change your picture from Devon...he was pathetic against Kotelnik.....he got a gift wrapped decision being that he was fighting at home in St. Louis.....I had never really seen Devon ever till this fight against Kotelnik....I hope he proves me wrong later.....there was so much hype about him being as good as Mayweather......if he fights like that against bradley he will be done...
