Hopkins beats Pascal-Schools open!

Pascal UD!

 

Hopkins will coast this fight.

 

Im starting to get more interested in this matchup, I still believe pascal will beat hopkins easily, but im starting to hope hopkins will pull off the win.

 

You don't have to trust me, you just have to watch what Hopkins did in his last 2 fights. He won't get old overnight, he already did. He's shot. Already. Compare Hopkins' speed, power and stamina in the RJJ fight with Pascal's and you'll get your answers.

Hopkins is so slow that he won't even be able to clinch that much.

 

Carl Froch was a hungry young fighter contesting his first world title in his hometown. Hopkins has achieved everything in the sport. He's creeping towards 50 years old and is looking for paydays. In his last two fights (at least) against crap opponents he's shown that he doesn't have the lungs for it anymore. He can't fight for 1 minute a round. Let alone the full 12x3. He can't manage any sustained aggression and is ever more reliant on spoiling tactics to keep the scorecards close.

Jean Pascal is a big step up from the corpse of Roy Jones or some guy no one has ever heard of. I think its certainly possible that this could be the end of the road for B-Hop.

 

I can't wait to bump this thread.

The excuses after the fight will be a great read.

 

Stranger things have happend. Seriously, Dawson did hardly anything.

 

Trust me, not going to happen mate. I'm a B-hop fan, but the man is done and Pascal is just too good at this stage.

 

Hopkins will end up on the canvas at some point and ultimately be stopped, likely failing to come out from his corner within 10 rounds.

 

:thinkReally now? This just proves to me how many people on here really know little of a young Hopkins.

Good analysis of the fight. Lets not forget other aspects such as Pascal's will and his handspeed. Sad part is that Hopkins has to spoil fights at this stage of his career. It's a shame because he used to be exciting at once which many people forget.
