In essence Pascal is doing a great job selling the rematch with Kovalev

He's doing a fantastic job of selling what most would consider a needless rematch. But now there's a lot more tension behind it and people are totally buying into it. It has become about the hot topic of race. It's about black vs white and what's perceived as good vs evil. Most of us hardcore fans are already familiar with the racist comments Kov has made in his language and country. If not, feel free to do some digging; it's all over the internet. The stuff he says is far worse than calling Stevenson a monkey. Whether you feel Kov is racist or not, this fight has race written all over it. But the truth of the matter is simple; no matter who wins, it just shows that that particular guy is a superior fighter, but not a superior being. No race is better than another, and it's best we remember that before we all get lost in this "race war" fight. Because let's be honest, that's what this fight is all about.
