    Pascal has no chance of getting this fight.

    Actually, he would still like to fight Tomasz Adamek. CEO Richard Schaeffer maintains its the bigger fight, and easily do-able.

    And in other news the alcoholic bum on the corner called out the young hottie with a nice ass. Surprisingly he was turned down.

    I would love to see the fight but Pascal isn't a big enough name for Hopkins.

    I'd much rather see Hopkins fight Dawson/Johnson winner and leave Pascal get a unification bout with Erdei.

    George would outbox the crap out of Pacsal for one round, then quit.

    I didn't used to like Pascal, but I've become a fan. I still don't think he's that good, but he's become a must-watch fighter. All his bouts are very exciting :good

    He should stick to who he's scheduled to fight though. Dawson, Hopkins or Johnson beat him badly. Tarver is probably about even, just because Tarver has slowed down so much. Jones is about even. Shumenov or Campillo would probably both beat him. I think he'd even have trouble with Yusef Mack. Stick to short brawlers like Diaconu and Branco and Chris Henry and he'll have a much easier path to retaining.

    Come on, Froch pretty much matched him and Froch has to be one of the slowest P4P world champions.

    Like I said. Pascal schedule is already full.

    He's fighting Branco in September.

    He has a rematch against Diaconu in December.

    Then if he's still the champion. He will most likely fight Eric Lucas (Seriously!).

    Froch has long arms and good timing, which negated Pascal's speed.

    Personally i think a Pascal vs Hopkins fight is quite intriguing.

    Hopkins wont dent Pascal, who has proved his beard to be decent now - and Pascal can fight for 12 rounds and is an all-round athlete.

    Hopkins would be favourite, but i wouldnt write off Pascal who is learning all the time and becoming a better fighter.

    I would like to know where you saw/heard that... :huh

    Pascal has a habit of talking a lot to promote his fights, especially since GYM, his organization, was not doing a very good job at it. But nowhere in Montreal's media, or anywhere else for that matter, have I heard or seen that Hopkins call.

    Source please ...

    This is almost as funny as Cintron calling out Shane, except Pascal is actually starting to build a fairly decent rep for himself. Hopkins toys with him though.

    B-Hop is not gonna fight Pascal, he's gonna bow out as soon as he gets whooped by Chad Dawson (who will at that point be on a 5 fight streak destroying grandpas).

    THEN we can have a Dawson vs. Pascal matchup that would be a fun match to watch stylistically

    Funny thing - I'm pretty convinced Pascal beats him.

    Once and for all.. Pascal did not call out Hopkins.
