Pascal sells 15,000 tickets in Canada. That's why "no fans" Dawson was saying him next. Dawson has had better paydays in the past.
Yeah I hadn't imagined this fight would sell well. Given the way it looked for the first 5 minutes and fashion the fight ended in I think you can bet many of the hardcores won't even give a damn to see it again. I know I hope Hopkins just retires at this point, and Dawson for all his talent seems unable to really keep his head in a fight when it counts. Although I think the TKO ruling was way off, I wouldn't mind seeing Dawson keep the titles and rematch Pascal in Montreal.
