With the firestorm on testing going through boxing and Pascal's claims will Dawson ask for testing?
On these boards I have seen numerous threads in which people were asking why Hopkins wouldn't test etc. Simple answer is, he didn't have to because the request wasn't made until after the fight was signed and set in stone essentially. Had Pascal made it a condition of signing the rematch after the rematch became mandatory things would have been different story completely.
That being said, will Dawson ask for OST in this fight?
Dawson himself tested positive for illegal substances in 2004 in a post fight test, so do you think with all the scrutiny Hopkins got from Pascal & fans will Dawson force the issue and ask for testing?
Personally, i'm not a hypocrite and want every professional sport to have year round random testing across the board. Anytime millions of dollars, records and history are at stake in any sport or contest in which fans are expected to pay to see or attend then testing is warranted.
