Just a great victory for Pascal and boxing exposing the overrated Dawson. Pascal administered an ass whipping on the boy and Dawson whined away like a Dirrell after the fight. Great win.

Shaw is a lieing fat ****.

Excuse my language here folks but i can't stand him.

The headbutt was so clearly accidental and this is coming from a Dawson fan.

Dawson gave the fight away , not aggressive enough in known hostile territory . he had the skills , but failed to execute them until the 11th hour ?????????????? head butts between lefties and righties are very common . Canada really likes to put on a good show I enjoyed the fight , the atmosphere and was bemused by the pitiful excuses by Chad with Larry . FROM WAY DOWN IN Alabama.................OH CANADA !!!!!!

Gary Shaw is such a clown. Why would Pascal intentionally headbutt Dawson and put himself in danger of being cut when he was easily winning the fight? That wouldnt make any sense. It's just a pathetic excuse.

Either way, Pascal is now the best LHW in the world!

typical yank hypejob exposed

Gary Shaw, the promoter for Chad Dawson, thought the headbutt by Jean Pascal in the eleventh round was intentional. Pascal won a unanimous eleven round technical decision over Dawson to unify the WBC/IBO light heavyweight titles. Dawson was behind on the cards, but he had Pascal in all sorts of trouble in the eleventh round. There was a clash of heads that opened up a a very bad cut above Dawson's right eye. The doctor quickly stopped the fight.

Gary Shaw must know that comments like this just makes the L look worst.....take it like a man and come back stronger and better.....there's come a time when fighters who are turned around get EXPOSED (basically one handed fighters) like DLH, Cotto, Hatton, and Winky just to name a few are ALL fighting with their strong hand out front....once they jab, then what?.....that strong hand is already in play and its being used as a JAB or range finder....there comes a time when figters like that will be EXPOSED for what they REALLY are.....dudes who bring one gun to a two gun shootout.....instead of Shaw lookin for excuses he should look for some killer instinct to give to his fighter....homey needs it bad!!

Where is the talent in boxing ???? it certainly is not in the lightheavy weight division (only exception Hopkins and he is sitting in a rockin chair) both these fighters (and I use the term fighters loosely) Pascal and Dawson both stink as fighters , Pascal would have been knocked out by any decent light heavyweight of the past between round 5 and 7. Dawson is to scared to mix it up, safety first and throw one to three combination a round, then he does not do anything else. Both Pascal and Dawson borrowing part of a quote from Larry Holmes: "could not carry the jock strap of any past average light heavyweights" and lets not even dare to compare anyone of them with the great light heavyweights.

Bull**** the headbutt was unintentional. Pascal was winning the fight, dawsons dumbass shout've finished pascal after the flash uppercut he threw and stunned pascal for a few seconds, dawson was caught slipin', pascal deserves the win. Rematch needs to happen.

I agree that the fight should have carried on, but the headbutt was not intentional man. Stop being a rotten egg. Even if the fight carried on, Pascal had around 2 mins to recover and regain his breath.

I was rooting for Dawson wholeheartedly, but agreed the fight should've been stopped. That cut wasn't small, it was thick, wide, and the bleeding wouldn't stop. By the time the doctor said the decision, Pascal would've already been recovered and ready to tag that cut. It's really unfortunate what happened considering how Dawson's momentum was through the roof in that 11th round...
