    Pascal was a underdog in many eyes, when he went up against Dawson. He thrives on it, however Dawson never faced a boxer like Pascal and he choke when he got pressured. However Kovalev is another monster, i have to go with Krusher here. But Pascal got the tools to make it difficult.

    Oh but wait, Froch couldn't stop him, that's of course because Froch is featherfisted, it has nothing to do whatsoever with Pascal having an iron chin right?:yep

    Kovalev has scary power. Pascal is good should be competitive while it lasts. I believe Krusher stops him.

    LOL you know I never implied Froch wasn't a good puncher, I just don't think he has crazy elite power, the kind you need to hurt GGG. Also you have to remember Pascal was extremely green when he fought Froch, he's much more experienced now which means his defense will be better. I don't fault Froch for not stopping Pascal, but he hasn't stopped one guy with a good chin, he's only stopped glass jawed guys besides Taylor but that was years ago, and in no way is Taylor packing granite.

    a good point, Kovalev's footspeed will need to be on point to get him out of range in the exchanges

    If he stops him it'll be pretty impressive, he's never been stopped.

    He'd be 26-0 (24 KOs), 3/4 belts, Ring FOTY, 4 top 10 guys beaten...basically in a really good space.
