Chad Dawson lost because he was used to fighting age 40 opponents

[Earl-Hickey]

You cant keep fighting older fighters with diminished speed and reflexes and then go in against a young peak guy aged 27, Dawson didnt know what to do

[AddiX]

The real reason Chad lost is because he's dumb as ****. That's the truth. His corner told him exactly what he should do and he just sat there with that ****** look on his face.

People think he will come back and fight harder next time. But he really is ****** enough NOT to.

[BUSINESSMAN]

**** you chad. you let everyone down. get a slimmer wife btw.

[Blue Heffner]

Yeah, Chad lost because he wasn't challenging himself. Then he didn't take a fight before Pascal. I don't know if that was in the contract or what. Part of me says he'll bounce back, go ahead and finish Pascal like he should have. But another part of me says, nothing will change...he just isn't an exciting fighter with a killer instinct. Pascal made me a fan.

[The Hammer]

Nah, lets not write the book on him yet.

It was one lousy performance and who is to say those 40 year old fighters wouldn't beat Pascal because lets be honest, he is not an A level fighter.

I am sure that in a rematch Dawson will not be so passive and realize him just showing up won't win the fight and he will fight with some fire.

I agree Dawson is very good and will be back and do very well.

But some people were overrating him, including some of the Ring writers.
