What a shitty way to have the fight end, but Dawson has no one to blame but himself if he loses his titles. The fight was there for him to win and he gave it away because he was afraid to fight.

On a side note Titere is confusing the hell out of Ji Hoon Kim
Game set match.....exact. No one to blame but himselfQuote:

exactly, he had Pascal out in the beginning of the round as well as he did in the 9th, if he would have stepped it up he would have gotten the KOQuote:

Taking forever to tally the scores.
Dawson doesn't have a killer instinct, and that hurt him too.
I think the 108-101 was obscene but I had the 106-103 scores...Dawson gave it away he has no one to blasme he looked tired when he had chances to land he let Pascal go....Then the headbutt was the nail in the coffin because he could have pulled out a KO
Bute will beat the living shit out of Pascal. He'll hurt him eventually and he won't let him off the hook like Dawson did.Quote:

As for the fight in general, Pascal was more ambitious. That's about it really.
Someone tell Pascal Calzaghe retired? Also tell buffer this wasnt a lightweight fight =P
The thing is, Pascal also apparently has a great chin, Dawson was making the mistake Hopkins did against Taylor, like he was gonna stop him late, but when the opportunity was there he stopped and looked. But if Pascal even seemingly hurt Dawson, he jumped on him regardless or not, that's the difference. If Dawson was like Pascal that everytime he seemed to hurt him jumped on him, he may have won this fight, but this is the difference between these two fighters. Pascal fought regardless of what happened and was always on Dawson whether hurt or not, and Dawson whenever he hurt Pascal just stood and watched.Quote:
