    For those fans that are thinking that they’ve seen the last of Bad Chad Dawson after his 11 round technical decision loss to WBC light heavyweight champion Jean Pascal tonight, think again. Dawson, 28, was clever enough to have a rematch clause in his contract with Pascal, meaning that the two fighters will be getting it on again in the near future so that they can clear up the controversy that surrounded tonight’s fight in Montreal, Canada. For those who may have missed the fight, Dawson held back with his offense, letting Pascal pile on the rounds for the most part until the 10th round.

    At that time, Dawson finally showed his talent when he began to unload on a shocked looking Pascal. Dawson would batter Pascal in the 10th, and then in the 11th round had Pascal teetering on the verge of being knocked out when Pascal turned his head into Dawson and opened up a beauty of a cut over the eyelid of Dawson. The head butt was accidental, but the timing of the head butt couldn’t have come at a better time with Pascal on the verge of being knocked out.
