The first fight I thought Pascal edged it due to the KDs. The second fight I felt on paper scoring each round I had it even, but as an overall feel, felt Hopkins deserved the decision
Thankyou Sir, I wanted to be a Journalist, but I've somehow ended up working in a car dealership for Peugeot :blood Spot on buddy, and it's amazing how many people manage to miss the beauty of this. I agree with the Draw, and I was proud of the judges scorecards at the time, it showed that there is fair scoring in Boxing. I can't remember my score for the second fight but I did have Hopkins winning. No KD's against him and he took over after round 5. (Exposing Pascal's stamina and mental vulnerability.) I do agree again though, that Hopkins may of been given too much credit by fans and judges, by winning the drama of the fight.
Bailey, with all the respect some of your topics have no logic at all. I understand you are pro-Europeans but to compare Erdei who fought nobodies, with a legend like Bernard Hopkins.. Or Stieglitz with Kessler, same Erdei with Chad Dawson and Ottke with Toney (your topics). But compared to Erdei, at least Stieglitz fought some good names, getting knocked out unfortunately. The same Ottke who didn't lose but didn't meet the Elite of the division. I think you're only watching the rankings not the fights.
NO one serious thought that. As it stands, Hopkins has the better wins, despite Erdei having the longevity there.
Is this the stupid world we are living in terms of boxing greatness ?Are we really comparing Eredi to Hopkins in anyting let alone division ?So Sad:-(
