It was a great performance for a man his age. I don't put much stock in pascal though, never really though of him much as a champion. Even though they weren't really knockdowns he should have gotten credit but also all the dirty tactics by both fighters doesn't really do them any favors. Ward up at 175 takes all these guys imo but time will tell. I had the fight 115-113 btw
One of the most impressive things for me is the fact that Hop was hurt twice with tremendous shots that would've put most guys on ***** street but still managed to stay focused and upright. Now wondering if Roach still thinks Pacquiao can actually beat Hopkins.
definitely, i was able to get a last minute bet in, made 70 euro's with b-hops win,so im pretty satisfied, but im just happy as a boxing fan the man finally gets the record he deserved 6 months ago, showed us he is still game at 46 and a amazing boxer. Moves in the current p4p top 10 for sure for me.
Bernard a G..lol Seriously, I was so happy to seem him come out victorious. Image if he could beat Dawson and Bute! I think he has a really good shot at beating Dawson.
hopkins was just as if not more dirty than pascal tonite. same ole sh!t. that being said I had him winning 115-113. won the championship rounds (the new ones anyway..miss those 15 rounders).
i think dawson will be tough, but he can pull it off. He should hope for froch to win s6, I really like froch but he has obvious flaws that a guy like hopkins would easily exploit.
The guy just did push ups between rounds when the younger was sitting exhausted !!!man I'm from PR and I hated when BHOP threw the PR flag of T. Trinidad, but I must say BHOP tonight was awesome and I fully respect the guy, he made history !!
Hopkins made it an ugly fight as usual.. Yeah he landed some right hands but he also holds too much. Pascal fought his way to a draw! IMO... Pascal showed tons of heart!
