And doesn't get penalized or even get called out on it because Canadian officials will let him do anything in Quebec. Hit Bernard multiple times in the back of the head...one being called a knockdown. I'm not for sure if the ref really warned him for it but he did it throughout the fight. I haven't seen too many Pascal fights but he always fight this dirty?
Hopkins in one round continued hitting a few seconds after the end of the round and did not get penalized. Hopkins gave quite a few rabbit punch without warning also. So what your point. There is no controversy in the refereeing.
You are sick. Hopkins is the one who moved on the first knock down. If you turn your head while your opponent is swinging, you can't complain that your opponent hit you on the back of the head. Calling Pascal dirty when Hopkins used all his usual dirty tricks is kind of special...
Now come on! I had Hop winning 114-112 and Pascal might be lucky to get a draw but are we going to read **** like this for days on ESB? Pascal's going to get KTFO in his next fight. He's crap. He's a liar. He's a cheater. And now he's dirty.
Really? I thought Hopkins wasn't himself in that fight concerning the dirty fighting... Almost no holding, no elbows, no headbutts... It was like a completely different fighter! But that was probably because he had less opportunities since Pascal was trying to stay as much away from Popkins as he could...
I haven't see the fight yet, but if Pascal was dirty then props to him and smart. Fighting a guy like Hopkins you must be rough and use dirty tactics just like Hopkins to have a chance. You just have to be slick with it:good
I thought the ref should of pulled him up on it to be honest, there were too many rabbit punches, that said, did'nt Hopkins hit him low after and get away with it? he also hit him after the bell, just aswell Tommy Kimmons wasn't the ref, cause it could of been a lot worse for him.
The first KD some of you are calling a rabbit punch is comparable to how Green moved into Johnson's punch for the KO earlier this year; BHop's head was moving when that punch was thrown by Pascal. I didn't find either fighter to be OVERLY dirty last night, not enough to make it a big deal.
