bernard hopkins vs jean pascal (is this a roy jones junior repeat)?

Surely BHop is too smart to take a fight he subconsciously thinks he's gonna lose.


Pascal makes a lot of technical mistakes. BHop is the fighter to exploit those technical errors and shock the world again.

 

Bernard is too smart to be fighting just for the money.

He knows he is an old man now and knows his chances of losing are higher but to say someone with his mentality knows he is going to lose is a stupid claim.

 

Hopkins/Ornales was a televised sparring session. Enrique was there because he needed money, and his boss needed a stay busy fight. Don't read to much into that.

Hopkins/Jones was an ugly affair, but let me remind you, the scores were 118-109, 117-110, 117-110.

Pascal/Dawson caught a lot of people by surprise. I think Pascal was a bit under rated, and Dawson was massively over rated. I plead guilty on both counts.

Hopkins/Pascal is a completely different affair. BHop is going up against a 28 year old who has 27 fights, and has only fought two good opponents. Anything can happen. Bernard just might pull off another shocker.

 

Hopkins is gonna get badly beat up and hes gonna fake injury as always... this is going to be ugly but at the end pascal will win by large margin or even by DQ.. age caught up with everyone .. .dont think Hopkins is there for ever... as the years go on his abilities are getting lower

 

BHop is old, too old, and is going to be in a really hostile full arena.


I don't see how, at 45, BHop can win. Any experience he has will be diminished by the fact that he won't be quick enough. Styles won't make much a difference, speed will.
