Antonio Tarver and Al Bernsteins' score cards for Hopkins-Pascal

Maybe it's because Tarver lost to Hopkins?

just sayin

 

hhhmmmmm??

 

I gave Pascal round 12. I think a lot of people may have been swayed in that round - and perhaps a couple of others - by Bernard's body language compared to Pascals. He was smiling and grinning like he was landing all his shots, and Pascal was looking a bit worried like he was taking them all. But Hopkins actually missed a fair bit and Pascal landed some good counter shots inside.

 

The Showtime press scorecards were similarly split from memory. Just goes to show it was a close fight. Jim Gray was a total ass in his interviews.

 

very close fight, leaning toward hopkins a bit but a draw was fair in my eyes

 

i've watched the fight 3 times now..
first time i watched knowing that it was a draw and everyone saying hopkins won..etc..
the 2nd time i looked at certain rounds more carefully to judge it better than before. I still gave it to Hopkins by two points.

the third time..i tend to pay attention to where pascal may have won the rounds other than the knockd own rounds..the fight was close! A draw may have been a bit off edge, i would still give hopkins the fight..but super close.

 

was as closed as most draws ive seen. rematch asap

 

It was a close fight.

I thought Pascal won rounds 1,2,3,5 and 12
Hopinks won 4,6,7,8,9,10 and 11

113-113 even.

 

I tried to score honestly as possible I got it a draw as well..

 

Anybody think Mason Dixon was hating on Hopkins constantly, on the sly?

 

Dude....I don't care what you think you can agrue for the twelth round....10-10 rounds are almost never given....niether are 10-9 rounds when one fighter scores a knock down. If you idiots want to change the rules in the score just cause you emotionally want old popkins to get the W go for.....you look like hypocrates:good

 

close fight. had hopkins winning by a round but pascal should have got that third kd

 

I had 112-114 Pascal.

 

After the third round I had to admit even if Hopkins was landing more, Pascal was hurting more.

When you have 2 Kd's, you fold your opponent knees in the 5th and your opponent is smiling alot after getting cought in late rounds.

Means one thing to me, you hit hard and it's pro boxing, hard hit>jab.

Plus, more Hopkins is denying like a baby that Pascal wasn't hitting hard, more I think he was hurting him like no one before. Hopkins proved many times, he's a pro at denying.

If you are not biaised and you love competitive fight, this fight is close as **** to score.

I had for Pascal 5 rounds.

1,2,3,5,10

8,9,12 are extremely close,
