Anyone Else Think Hopkins Ill Beat Pascal?

I think this is one step too far for Hopkins, Pascal is very athletic & quick. I honestly feel Hopkins could get stopped here..

 

Yes that will forever taint Canada for me until i see some justice go opposite of Canada in Canada. The problem is you guys dont have many good fighters.

Come on you dont think Bute-Andrade was a travesty??

In the US you are also bound to get robbed once or twice but a place like Vegas with an Aging fighter who has never been popular vs a hot up and coming boxer. I guess Hopkins is **** outta luck anywhere.

 

Dawson did kick the **** out of Adamek...

That pavlik fight was 2 years ago and hopkins has looked **** in his last 2 fights since then. pascal is a better fighter and more gifted than pavlik as well.

 

He's not better by a huge margin. Hopkins surely hasn't looked as good, but Pascal is too open for counters when on the attack. Hopkins will not make the same mistakes Dawson did. His bursts work well against counter punchers, but if Hopkins leads and counters while defending well disrupting his rhythm (instead of standing stationary like Chad), then he can consistently land the better punches. Pascal isn't too unpredictable, either. As long as Hopkins isn't shot to bits, him and Nazim can definitely neutralize him. I wouldn't be surprised if Pascal won on a decision on busy work if Bernard fails to perform, but Hopkins has more than a good chance at pulling the win. He has his naysayers, let him prove them wrong one more time.
