Who do you got winning this fight? I think Pascal will make a few adjustments, but will still be no match in terms of skill. He will try to be more aggressive but Hopkins will go to the body early and make him gas like in the first fight. Pascal will throw huge bombs but will miss a lot and get countered. Hopkins will stay on his feet this time and finish strong. Hopkins UD 116-112 :bbb
I like Pascal here, Hopkins fought a brave fight last time out, but I do beleive the knock downs were legit and were a clear sign of him getting older. I think what took place in that fight was Pascal had a mental break down during the 2nd half, most would expect that if the fight got that far Hopkins would have the advantage because Hopkins almost always turns it on late in fights.... I think Pascal was expecting him to turn it on and thought to himself.. Here comes the executioner... if Pascal accepts the fact that the executioner is no longer, I beleive we will see Hopkins stopped late in the fight.. I like Pascal by late TKO
Very difficult fight to predict.....Hopkins knows how to beat Pascal now but Pascal also knows where he ****ed up plus the fight is in Montreal which means Hopkins is going to have to either dominate every round or gett he KO to win. The French don't care who they screw just so long as they win.
I wouldnt say that, I mean they have a bad rep mainly due to what happend when Andrade came out there and knocked out Bute late and was robbed, However Andrade did get a rematch and was knocked out........ he lost fair and square in the rematch. I think thats kinda what may happen here, another American goes over puts up a good fight feels robbed, comes back and gets knocked out...:good
It seems like its kinda split here on ESB but the funny thing is that listsening to the media in the lead up to the fight it seems pretty clear they are basically of the impression a hopkins win is a forgone conclusion
I wouldn't go so far.. if it's a very close fight they will give it to Pascal (champ & hometown), but if Hops puts on a performance like last time, minus the KDs, he should get the decision.
