    adamek is a fighter who comes forward and has slow hand speed. dawson got off when he wanted to and easily avoided most of adamek's attacks. pascal likes to circle then explode with fast power shots. if you don't pressure someone like that it gives them free range to pick their spots at will. froch beat pascal cause he kept coming forward throwing punches the entire fight and wore pascal down. dawson tried to box pascal for the first 8 rounds or so which did not work. when dawson came forward with purpose and let his hands go pascal had no answers. but too little too late.

      Adamek is a damn good fighter. So is Dawson. He lost. It happens.

              Karl is a good fighter, but all fighters have nightmares. His are 1 punch KO artists, and countering spoilers. I have said for a long time that Pascal fought like a moron in that fight iff you watch it he did not moe at all and slugged, when his foot speed was much faster. When asked why he did it he laughed and said he wanted to put on a show for UK fans, cost him the fight, but he at times allowe Froch to et free shots in.

              Unfortunatley I see Abraham knocking Karl out cold soon.

                I'd argue they're better than Dawson.

                I see nothing special in Dawson at all. Which is why I picked Pascal with no reservations to win tonight from the start.

                I'd personally like to see Dawson get in there with Arreola. Fat or not, I doubt he'd ever do it.

                  Never been impressed by Arreola but those other guys aint bad...I think Chad simply had an off night...Chad fights passive but he looked even more careless tonight...Pascal was the better man tonight

                    It was on the end of Pascal's fists.

                      Zab never has a problem going in for the kill though!

                      I hope Abraham beats the **** outta Froch...I don't like Froch for sum reason...

                      Chad got his ass whipped, Pascal deserved the win...
