Can BHOP beat Pascal again?

fair venue then yes he will win. The key for pascal is his stamina and I think he realizes it.

 

The real question is...can B-Hop win this time ?

 

OP is wrong.

Hopkins will deploy a new strategy for this rematch.

Expect to see Hopkins settle down and go for the early KO.

 

I think part of his strategy should be to not lose the first few rounds while getting knocked down twice and then crying about a draw. I hope he losses badly, I'm sick of his whining and all of you thinking he should just be handed decisions because he's old and cagey. He lost to Calz fair and square and people still won't shut up about it. The draw against Pascal is completely fair. As for the rematch I see another close fight.

 

B-Hop all the way!

 

I dont have problem with people having their opinion. I have problem with people thinking their opinion are facts.

You think Hopkins win, its a fair opinion
Pascal/Hopkins was called a draw, thats a fact.

Now answering the question. I think that Pascal showed in the past his stamina problem and I dont see any game breaking improvement anytime soon. I wish for a Pascal win and if he can pace himself he could win, but I fear that Hopkins now knowing Pascal he may come in Canada again and made history.

 

Go on any internet site in the world the fight was called a draw. Some people give their opinion it wasnt, but the fact are straight, you cant change that.

Now, you want to talk about the first KD, well if you call the KO of Green by Johnson a good KO, its the same that Pascal did and so you have to call the first KD of Pascal over Hopkins the same way. Last time I checked nobody were making thread about the Johnson vs Green KO not being good.

As another poster said, if Hopkins wasnt drop two times he should have won, but he was drop two times and it was called a draw, thats facts, sorry if you disagree.

 

Oh and hey, all judging sports have his problem with judges... its the way the sport works. So yes, they are paid to judge the fight and at the end of the fight if their no KO the judge give their cards and the result of those card decide the fate of the fight and then becomes a fact. Im not saying judges are perfect, im saying that judges ruling this fight a draw is a fact.

 

The thread isn't about their last fight. It's regarding the UPCOMING rematch, and if you think Hopkins will come in old, or will he surprise us all again. I'm interested.

 

I can answer to this question, the problem is, its not the question of the OP. But I already answered that.

So for your question, I dont think that Pascal can adapt before and during the fight. I think he is a good fighter, but he can only boxe one way and more important, I dont see him improve his stamina enough and so even though i will cheer for Pascal, I think Hopkins will adapt and win the next fight.

 

Hopkins is going to beat Pascal even easier. Pascal has no stamina, and isnt an overly intelligent fighter. Not Chad Dawson stupid but isnt the type of guy who has a plan B. We saw that in the Froch and Dawson fights.

 

I really doubt that he will have the same game plan. He will have to be the aggressor still because he couldn't win a reflex match, but it will be different, no doubt.
