Pascal 174.1, Hopkins 174.6

I didn't know they gave points for the press conference.

Pascal was not intimidated at all today, and that's not the first time he doesn't look at his opponent at the press conference. He does it at the weigh in and stays in that minding up to the fight. If all your believes rely on that, you're in deep trouble.

 

Lacy v Calzaghe

Lacy look scary/insane/buff

Calzaghe look like a punk ass skinny white boy that can't fight

Look what happened in the actual fight :bbb

 

Why wouldn't Hopkins be motivated for Jones jr? He wanted that fight for over a decade!

 

:deal

 

Yea but anyone who knew anything knew that stylewise Hopkins has Jones dominated. Well at this stage in their career.
Jones fights out of a style thats based on reflex and speed. They are obviously gone and his fundamentals arent that great.
Hopkins although older has proven his mettle with the best in his class by having pure fundamentals.

Besides Jones had just come off a 1 round destruction against a B level fighter.

 

Don't want to get off topic but I'm sure even at this "shot stage" of his career, Jones could have beaten Hopkins had he not been gun shy once again, ala Tarver-Jones III, following his KO loss to Green...

Mentally Jones just wasn't there at all....

 

Others boxers that I wont mention should look at these two professionals and the way they respect the sport and the fans by being in shape. These two are ****ing ready.

 

Pascal will come out pretty hungry in the late rounds... I'm not saying Lacy didn't have heart, I'm saying Pascal could make a hitfest out of BHop if he's not as wide as he's shown us in the past. Lacy didn't have the tools nor did he have ring intelligence that was close to Pascal's level right now. Or after Saturday's fight, I should say. Pascal will be a wolf in the ring just as he told the press a couple days ago... he'll appear to box and run circles for a while then time BHop so he can put all he's got on short combinations that will (as opposed to 'would') land. BHop will try to clinch and work the inside, but somehow I see Pascal having an answer to that - Ramsay prepared Pascal against BHop's tricks the same way NFL defensive coordinators plan beatings on QBs via video & application of counters... either Pascal's goal will be to solution/fool him in the clinch and try to land uppercuts, or magically escape from BHop's continuous appetite for body contact.

Pascal UD, possibly an 8-4 wide UD.

 

The funny part is that Pascal is less ripped than he usually is. He is a little bit less strong but he worked a lot on his stamina. Bad news for B-Hop.:bbb

 

I would say less mucles on the upper body and some more in the lower body.

 

Look at this.

9:45. He's the first to break eye contact.

The day after, he mentally rapes Dawson like he did to Hopkins.

See something familiar?:deal

 

Enjoy it while it last, all you got is Pascal and Bute (after that you are back to Hockey lol), I can understand the nuthuggery you are showing.

Tomorrow is execution for Berto's look a like twin brother and you know it, you just don't want to admit it! REAL TALK

 

So out of curiosity...after all this trash talk on behalf of Hops, if Hopkins gets clearly beaten by Pascal tomorrow, what will you say to us ?

 

I will eat my words and stfu, but i doubt B-Hop losses, you have confidence in Pascal and i do on B-Hop :bbb

But if Pascal wins, i don't want no close 8-4 UD or Split Decision close fight bullcrap

Pascal needs to impress and beat the crap out of Hopkins either by late TKO or early KO or wide UD12 at least 9-3

 

I think Pascal wins, but it won't be clearly 'cause nobody looks good against Bhop. Bhop is very skilled and very experienced. At least he can make the losing fight very close, and claim he believed he made Pascal fight his fight, he believed he took him to school and execute a perfect gameplan in half of the fight

...and fight for another decade...
