Haha yea Kov is a Jekyll and Hyde, he's nice guy one moment, then wants to eat your children the next once you're in the ring with him. Pascal could be his toughest fight to date, but element of surprise might work better. Pascal should be nice guy like GGG, smile for the camera and for Kov, and then turn Kov into goodboy.
"No expert chose Pascal to win against Diaconnu for his first (jumping from 168); no expert chose Pascal to win to then p4p Dawson; and now no expert chose Pascal to win against Kovalev. But trust me, Pascal is proven at that level." Russ Amber
Got to give Pascal credit. At least he's fighting this monster who's coming off a shockingly brutal career-ending win over a legend like Hopkins. He could have easily taken other fights and made easier cash in Canada but took the serious and seriously dangerous(in this case) route.
We're close as far as are birthdays go I think 4 days apart, and I get called Jekyll/Hyde all the time, I'm the nicest sweetest guy in the world, until you make me angry and I hyperfocus on you and try to destroy emotionally.:nut But no ones ever called me a thug, because most of the time I have a logical reason to get p***ed and people agree with the reasons behind my anger. Same thing happens with Wlad he's the nicest guy in the world until his opponent makes him mad like Pulev did and he destroyed him while being hyper focused. GGG did the same thing to Stevens. They're all separated by a few days as far as their birthdays go. Wlad March 25th Kovalev April 2nd GGG April 8th There's something to that. Not sure what it is.
Pascal going to the old surreptitious angle about Russians not having heart, I see. Perhaps Kovalev should have mentioned how Haitians deal with earthquakes?
I will check more into this!:good I get the feeling several exmaples to the contrary will rear their ugly heads, though!
Other fighters born around us other than Wlad, Sergey and GGG, are Mancini, Pavlik, Kessler, Margarito, Arreola, Calzaghe, Rafael Marquez, Douglas, Kirkland, Gatti, and Arguello all Warriors:good Although Lara and Danny Garcia might be the fly in the ointment, but Danny has a good chin at least.
