    so who ducked a rematch of jones-hopkins for ten years or more? both talked all kinds of garbage, one obviously ducked. until no one cared any longer that is. pac-mayweather are following this blueprint to a tee.

    Kathy called GBP and asked to speak with Richard Scheafer.
    The girl answering the phone told her that Richard was no longer with the company.
    Kathy said, OK, tell him I called. and hung up.
    Then she released a PR note saying she contacted Hopkins people but they never got back to her.

    No worries though. BHOP won't take this BS quietly. Today or tomorrow you can bet BHOP will be in the media making some noise.

    fuc that hopkins should try to become undisputed lhw champion just 2 more fights than he should retire.fight kovalev in nov if he wins than fight stevenson next year stevenson isn't fighting this year because of the lawsuit.ward is never moving up.

    I like kovalev vs pascal.pascal has never been knocked out kovalev will be the first to do it.pascal has terrible stamina and always gets gassed out kovalev stops him late.

    Even if Pascal wants it or not, he has no choice but to fight Kovalev ATM. He's a proud person and I'm pretty sure he will want to prove something. The guy have a good chin and stylewise, I think he has more chances to beat Kovalev than Stevenson. Everything happens for a reason in life and in the end, it could be the best thing for Pascal's career that the Cloud fight went down in the end.

    i want to say kovalev by ko but pascal never been koed even though hopkins dropped him twice. pascal good fighter but we can see why he would be the under dog in this fight.

    For all that Hopkins is a very intelligent boxer, great knowledge, craftiest man around he is not nearly as destructive or as powerful as the Krusher, if pascal comes out swinging those wild punches he will be flattened by the first good right hand kovalev through straight down the pipe, goodnight jean.

    If Bute had opened up him before the 12th round I think he could have stopped him, he was bordering on being out on his feet when Bute finally let his hands go.

    Kovalev will knock Pascal out, but I do not believe Pascal will be stupid enough to fight Kovalev. Kovalev will knock out Pascal, Hopkins, Stevenson, Ward, etc., but Ward is running from Stevenson at 168!
