Not sure at all how much Hops has left so no comment, Pascal punches wide but he is fast can fight going backwards and forwards at a high pace. I'm never going to write off the old man but thats the type of fighter who makes old men look old
Never seen Pascal fight at a high pace. Only seen him fighting in spurts and gassing a bit late. Anyway, I can´t pick Hopkins. I can´t go against Hopkins either though.
I cant see hopkins winning this one hes looking old and i know that doesnt always matter but in this case i think its going to
I really think pascal is going to try and produce something special and make a statement. Hopkins will be like one of those football teams that stick 10 players in front of the goal and say 'try and score'.
I predict Hopkins being all gentleman like and friendly giving Pascal praise like he did with Trinidad and Pavlik
A tough choice for me considering all of Pascal's faults and how much more respect I have for Hopkins as a boxer, but I'm picking Pascal to win by a dull 12 round decision. The combination of Hopkins's age, Pascal's youth and the fight being in Pascal's home town should swing the odds in his favour. Pascal fights in spurts, yes, and has limited technical skill, which will suit Hopkins, but he should have enough athleticism and determination to atleast make it close with the far older man. The rest will be decided by the judges.
