I really don't think Chad was about to stop Pascal, he took that left uppercut well and went toe to toe with Froch for twelve rounds. Chad blew it with his passive attitude.

For all the crap I give Floyd Mayweather he always shows up in shape and it is always clear the passion he has for winning. He needs to call Chad.

See that's the weird thing. I felt like Chad put on a Mayweather performance, but without the same skill level. That would've been a textbook Floyd fight if Chad had been landing at a higher percent and slipping at a lower percent. But that type of fight made absolutely no sense because A) Chad was not avoiding punishment B) Chad was not landing C) Chad was losing rounds. If that were Floyd (or really any fighter), he likely would've realized that by the 3rd round and tried something different. Chad was content to lose rounds. He was relying on gassing out Pascal and getting a KO. That's one thing if you're Abraham, but another when your MO is to outbox people.

I think I'm so frustrated because I feel cheated. Chad did not give it his all. That was extremely obvious when he showed up in the 11th.

I just finished watching this crap fest.

Some thoughts I had. Does Pascal even have any conditioning? Does Dawson want to knock people out?

Cloud might be the best hope for this division.

Dawson is fucking boring, i'm glad he lost, if these 2 have a rematch I hope he loses again.

I think Chad would win in a rematch, but Pascal kicked his ass tonight. BTW, Pascal just signed a new contract with GYM last week that will pay him $1.5 million minimum on his next fight after winning tonight.

Chad tried to pull the same bullshit he pulled against Glen in the last fight, with the crouching and the slow plodding. This time he had a prime guy across the ring from him.

And THAT is the difference. Against Oscar Floyd showed some real want to and creativity when he might have been in a close fight.

Here's another thing. When taken to the Doc if you're Chad don't you say "Doc this is a CHAMPIONSHIP fight and I am gonna knock this motherjammer out. Don't do anyhting stupid."

Was the cut really bad ?? I couldn't see in my stream but fatman claims it was dripping into his eye.

Im at work and I had the audio down what did chad say to the doc when he inspected the cut? I agree he should have plead his case. What he really should have done was fight with more energy instead of the way he fought.

I would have liked to see the fight end without the headbutt, I believe Pascal would have made it to the final bell and possibly even come back to win the 12th round.

The headbutt ending, though unintentional, sort of tainted the victory for Pascal, who would have won this fight legit, and not given Dawson an excuse at the end.

I know I'm old school, but I don't think the win was tainted at all.

It SHOULD have been a TKO for Pascal.

Tainted only because Pascal was going to win the fight in a clear fashion, something most boxing fans wern't expecting..


You must be really 'old school' Marble, what year did the rule change take place that sent fights to the scorecards when fights were stopped by unintentional headbutts and other injuries?

He didn't say anything. Same lethargy he fought with.

I think it was pretty bad and knew it would be stopped. Pascal looked at least a little vulnerable in that round but everyone knew he was ahead. Chad didn't put up a fight either.

Mid 1990's is when I noticed it. But I don't really know.

It was a terrible cut. Lots of blood and going in the eye. The ref may have stopped it no matter what. But don't you try to lobby him if you're Chad?

Oh yeah, it was a 2"-3" gash, gushing blood over Dawson's right eye.

Rafael's chat is hilarious. The sentiment is flowing that Poor Chad was screwed by the godless French Canadians. lol !

Ok thanks guys, so the doctor made the right call then.

Chad was pissed when the Doc stopped it. He had words with the ref also.

Yeah but he didn't say much until AFTER the doc spoke. It is too late then. You've got to be talking as you are walking over. Set the tone.
