Pascal V Dawson 2

[Earl-Hickey]

They have Dawson as the favorite, but does anyone see the upset happening?

Dawson's last outing was a disaster, getting dropped multiple times and stopped by Ward, and Dawson has been a guy that can go missing in fights if his confidence isn't there.

His only success in the first fight came when Pascal gassed late on, but when Pascal had his legs under him, Dawson really struggled with the speed, which you would expect to happen again, in the early stages of this fight.

How do you see it going?

[DanboSmitty]

It's really hard to say we havn't seen Dawson since the last fight so there's no telling if he's a changed fighter. I'd still see Dawson winning it over 12, but I'm not too sure I wouldnt put money on it.

I don't see Dawson taking another L to Pascal...... Dawson on the cards

Dawson does better in all of his rematches.

When he rematched Tarver, he beat exactly as dominant as the first time.

When he rematched Johnson he beat him much more clear than the first time, and stayed away from exchanges.

When he rematched Hopkins, he stayed away from the dirty stuff.

Dawson does a lot better in a rematch with Pascal this time. I think he can pull off the win, but it will be tough.

I also think at 175 if he rematches Ward, Dawson does a lot better and doesn't suffer any knock downs. He'd make it closer. Whether he wins or not, i'm not sure yet. I want to see that fight at 175.

I no longer trust Chad's chin. Not to mention, I don't think he's been the same fighter for years and that was before the weight and Ward disaster.

Pascl KO.

[Redd Foxx]

Is this signed? I'm curious as to whether the first was an anomaly, or if he has Dawson's number. I'm inclined to think the former, but would love to see how it goes down.

I dont mind the fight but as for power and skills Dawson takes it, but the chin and temper I dont know that Ward fight really was something else

Pascal looked pretty rusty early on in his tuneup a couple weeks ago. A long layoff and he probably had to remind himself it wasn't B-Hop across from him anymore.. It took a while for him to warm up and right when he did, he tore his left bicep or something, can't remember exactly.

I wasn't really sure what to think of his performance in that one other than it took some grit to fight one-armed like he did. he got to work on his right hand a lot, showed some great timing with it after a while

Pascal isn't great but he's durable and game, still has power, athleticism and the style to bother plodders.

its most 50/50 for me but Ill edge slighty to Pascal because of his power and questions about Dawson's resistance now. Hopefully for him it really was just the weight against Ward.
