Hopkins agrees terms, Pascal fight is ON!

yep.

best way to beat b-hop is to outwork him...and pascal fights ****all like calzaghe

 

If that's the case, I wouldn't say it too loudly. You know Hopkins always does the opposite to what everyone tells him.

 

if Hopkins pulls this off then I will have any avatar of him for a full year by way of a forfeit!

 

I reckon if Pascal fights like he did against Froch, goes in all guns blazing and tries to take Hopkins into a war, I think Hopkins can pick him off and take a decision win.

 

hopkins will win on points

 

You don't think......

I think Hopkins has this one sussed.... Slow paced UD to Hopkins...

 

When Hopkins fought Pavlik, he was able to out move Kelly Pavlik and basically beat him on basic's.

Bernard Hopkins is not going to be able to out move Jean Pascal, Hopkins hand speed is not going to be the difference..! like it was in the Pavlik fight.

I can't see what Bernard Hopkins thinks he is going to Neutralize in Jean Pascal.

The last time Hopkins faced a fighter who had great athletic ability, and a a slight idea how to box and use basic fundamentals, was back when he fought Jermaine Taylor.

"And Jermaine Taylor beat him twice, back to back......and totally neutralize Hopkins"

I fear that Hopkins may be beaten badly in this fight, seriously he's gonna have to sustain his attacks against Jean Pacal....!!!

One sneaky straight right hand, is not going to do **** against Pascal.

Everybody who says, Hopkins is going to win via 12round UD........anybody care to say how..???

 

Weight drained possibly? And, just no.

For what it's worth I thought Hop would've beaten Dawson, who makes too many mistakes against someone as intelligent and crafty as Hopkins.

 

You are entering a world of pain Flea Man, you are entering a World of pain...!! I'm not even playing around with these other topics.

Bernard Hopkins was not weight drained and he has never made this excuses. Jermaine Taylor totally out hustled and neutralised Bernard Hopkins...!

How many Straight right hand leads, did Hopkins land..? not many.

How many jabs did he land..? Not as much as Jermaine Taylor.

Who was the busier fighter..? Jermaine Taylor.

Jermaine Taylor beat Bernard Hopkins twice, and he beat him the second time even easier.

Bernard Hopkins has always had problems with fighters who are athletic, and have a ring IQ of 150 or something close to that. Jermaine Taylor was very athletic, fast hand speed, fast movement, explosive. And he also had some sort of idea how to box, science behind it..........Jermaine Taylor was a former Olympic athlete.

Bernard Hopkins in my opinion has never been able to handle, gifted athlete's who can box.

This was the reason why Roy Jones ****ed his whole game over in 1993, and destroyed his life. And made him rethink his style, his training and attributes to succeed.

Do you guys really think Bernard Hopkins was giving away the early rounds to Oscar De La Hoya...? No he wasn't , Hopkins could not handle the speed and athleticism even of.........that Version of Oscar De La Hoya.

How the **** is Bernard Hopkins going to beat Jean Pascal..? he may be able to land afew right hand leads, but one punch is not enough to stop this guy, which has been proven.

Jean Pascal, i criticised this man leading up to the Chad Dawson fight. But he is possibly the most athletic fighter, who is gifted with athleticism. And what i mean by that is, Agility, co-ordination, speed.

Jean Pascal at Light heavyweight is the most athletic fighter, with boxing skills. Chad Dawson and Jean Pascal both will end Bernard Hopkins career...!!

If you look at all Bernard Hopkins greatest victory's, its a ****ing myth that he beat all them guys with his just his skills alone. Bernard Hopkins compared himself to batman, a superhero with no real super powers. Bernard Hopkins has underrated himself as a athlete, he was athletic and still is.............

But in Jean Pascal, he's facing a fighter who has greater stamina, greater athleticism, can box and is not a ****** fighter like Kelly Pavlik.

This might be the end of Bernard Hopkins, where I'm from i remember speaking to some tough guy on the street. And he told me..........

"Son if you live by the knife, you will die by the knife........the world of pain menn, a dangerous place to be"

Bernard Hopkins has been a execution all his life, and executed many boxers.

This may be the executioners final execution.

 

:rofl:rofl
Ain't it ''if you live by the sword you die by the sword''??

Brilliant Post Prima..... Glad to see you back on Brit Forum giving your unique analysis.........

 

If Hopkins beats Pascal then Pascal loses to Dawson second tgime around. When thrown in with he fact hes already lsot to Carl Froch (who wont be getting much further in the super 6_ I think even if Hopkins wins it will be dminshed over time.

 

Maybe back in the med evil days, but we are in the 21st century.

Maybe this is it for Bernard Hopkins..........i honestly can't see how he beat Jean Pascal, mentally in his mind he probably knows how he can beat Jean Pascal.............

I don't know weather Bernard Hopkins can implement that type of a fight at 45..? how olds is this guy...?

 

I must be hanging around to many yardies then....

I agree with what your saying. A lot of people musn't of watched the Jones fight because Bernard looked dire tbh. I don't think Pascal will just be plain dumb and unload like a kid. I think him and his trainer will look to implement a sound game plan. It's a good fight for him to take imo. It's very intriguing and i can see both sides of coin.

 

Even if Pascal does unload, and go ape ****.

Whats Bernard Hopkins gonna do..? Pascal can fight going ape **** for 12 rounds straight, like he did against Carl Froch.

Bernard Hopkin's will have to sustain his attacks, this is not going to be a sweet performance from Bernard Hopkins.

He's gonna have to rough house, pull out a performance like he did against Robert Allen is it..? yeh Robert Allen.......

 

I'd still rate a win over Dawson greater, even after being beat by Pascal.

A Dawson fight has been there for a long time (I haven't seen much enthusiasm from Bernard). It's clear what Hopkins is up to, whether he can pull it off now, at his age, is another matter.
