Boring bout all around appart from 7-9 where Pascal found the mark to hurt Ikeke. The official scores: 118-110, 117-111, 115-113 for Pascal
It was. I don't know if guys are usually weight drained taking a fight on that short of notice, but Kingsley had no power tonight. He usually has a little more snap than that. I'm a little surprised that Pascal didn't put him away. A guy coming off a short KO loss in his last fight, the inactivity, and leaving his chin open on numerous occasions...Jean should've stopped him.
sucks, I wanted Ikeke to win, I had 50 dollars of vcash on him Pascal doesnt have that great of a defence, he moves, but someone shorter will get him on the inside and knock him out, pascal drops his hands too low
