    Others evidences this guy is selfish as no one before and will deny everything until the death and gives no credit to anyone he faces.

    First knowdown, look the referee when he knows clearly where the punch landed...

    Second knockdown, he's looking the canvas and looks like he slipped on something!!! LMAO

    9th and 10th, get cought by nice clean counter left hook in exchanges and stopped the exchanges, took two steps back and start smiling.

    Wait Hopkins, how about giving some credit for the one who you signed the fight only 2 weeks after he challenged you.(Maybe a guiness record)

    Because you initialy thought it would be easy, didn't you?

    I truly respect Hopkins career, but I'm no fool, Hopkins can't admit he had more hard time that he was expected.

    scored it for Hopkins. Pascal seemed tentative in that fight, cause of Hopkins ring smarts and counterpunching. To be honest, i believe he got outboxed by a 45 yr old lol.

    Again what are you talking about, Pascal doesn't stop saying Hopkins gave a great fight, he learn alot from him but he still think that he pulled enough for the win.

    What's wrong with those comment? He's giving proper respect for the former champion and he's saying Hopkins still teaching to young-guns.

    Pascal proved again, his has heart, skills, and manners of a champion.

    Hopkins is selffish, he doesnt realize that king a comment place a shadow for this great fight and negative around boxing.

    Hopkins<boxing

    He's a bad ambassador.

    I do like that Tarver atleast scores the fights and gives you his score card. A lot of the time on HBO they dont bother telling you their cards. Larry will mention in passing how he scored a round but they only show lettermans scores.

    I agree with Tommy, round 12 was pascal's based on the cleaner punches landed.

    116-111 Hopkins

    Gave the 2nd 10-10. Thought Hopkins CLEARLY won every round that wasn't 10-8, with only two such being close.

    I think you'd have to have a skewed POV (fanboy, Canadian, passionately hate Hopkins, etc.) to score it for Pascal, honestly.

    Makes sense. Lots of disagreement about the scoring of Round 12 and Round 10. So Tarver gave those to Pascal, and Bernstein gave em to Hopkins.

    Final scorecard after re-watch :

    1- 10-8 Pascal
    2- 10-9 Pascal
    3- 10-8 Pascal
    4- 10-9 Hopkins
    5- 10-9 Pascal
    6- 10-9 Hopkins
    7- 10-9 Hopkins
    8- 10-9 Hopkins
    9- 10-9 Hopkins
    10- 10-9 Hopkins
    11- 10-9 Hopkins
    12- 10-9 Pascal

    There's no way that Hopkins won any of the first 3 rounds. Pascal clearly landed the better shots in all of those, even if Hopkins started pressing forward from the 2nd round.

    End result = 113-113

    I posted elsewhere the following:

    The way I see it is this:

    Give Pascal the benefit of&#65279; every doubt and you can score 114-112 in favor of Pascal.

    Give Hopkins the benefit of every doubt and you can score it 118-110 in favor of Hopkins.
