    That crowd was yelling for nothing whenever Pascal threw something ineffective. i wonder if it had any swaying to the judges scoring.

    I think Pascal won a round during the second half of the fight which was the reason for a draw.

    You lost all credibility when you declared this fight of the year, there were multiple rounds where Pascal threw less than ten punches and you thought he won, i gave him only two rounds besides rounds 1 & 3 and i was being generous, making it 114-112 B-Hop, all day, but this was no robbery although Benard clearly won.

    I will watch it again i'm just saying what my thoughts were from the floor. Thought pascal got jobbed

    As for it being a boring fight, watching it live it was great

    He would have had to win 3 rounds to make it a draw and i gave him two which made it 114-112 Hopkins, no way he won three rounds after round three.

    lol.....just by you saying this was "fight of the year!" says it all. :lol:


    Hopkins was robbed, The fight was not close, Glad the opinion polls of non-french or canadians are rampantly in favour The Truth! (Hopkins clearly winning).

    Fight of the Year, That wasn't even Fight of the Month. I'm no Hopkins fan and find most of his fights on the boring side but he clearly won that fight last night. His KD's early on made the score one sided for a little more than half the fight, but he took just about every round after 5. Pascal fought scared when he saw Hopkins wasn't going to go away easily.

    In the matter of rounds won it wasn't close at all, but the KD's made it close scoring wise, B-Hop won 8-9 rounds out of 12.

    For a Hopkins fight, yea it actually had some drama to it.

    But no offense man, I think it's fair to say, you got caught up in the atmosphere at least a little bit. That and maybe you just were at a angle that benefitted Pascal, that's happened to me before at fights.

    I'd say watch the fight on tv, with NO sound first, then with commentary if you want.

    If you still score it for Pascal, we can have a more legit debate.

    I guess being drunk didn't help my scoring. And might've helped the excitement

    It looked to me like pascal was sporadically landing clean, damaging blows even in the late rounds
