Pascal vs Diaconu Rematch is Finalized For December 11

[El Angel]

Hopefully can match the excitement of the first one.

Nah, Diaconu's too short and has no tactics. He is pretty limited technically as well.

was thinking the same thing. i sure will be watching tho!

Absolutely loved the first fight. Both are exciting fighters, I just wish the major networks would show some interest.

Neither fighter is American Based so the HBO's of the world will usually frown upon it unless they had a large following. HBO experimented a while back with Calzaghe vs Kessler and it failed for them. Showtime might consider the fight, but their budget is probably blown with the super 6 tourney. I bet Versus will snag it up again if they can.

This should be a good fight. I have a feeling Diaconu may win this time - he was not at his best in the first fight.

I do not know why Pascals team thought this was a good idea... I actually give Diaconu a good shot at winning his belt back. So why would they fight him again after winning the belt? Was their a rematch in the clause? Pascal clearly won that fight, but it didn't look like it was an easy fight for him to win.

it wasn't an easy fight thats for sure, however what was funny, after the fight, people were comparing Pascal's performance to that of Roy Jones Jnr.
