    i like " when i die, they're going to have my bones in a museum, and they're going to study them, and ask the question, what made this man this way? what drove him"


    classic.

    bernard is a philosopher of sorts, he has a philosophy, it's a hard one, one that comes from a rough life, trials and tribulations. one thing that has always stuck with me in life was my gramps telling me that no matter who the guy is, don't discredit him for what he looks like or even acts, even if he is ******, because, he could have one thing over you in life and that is experience, having gone through something you haven't yet or may never know, and from their experience in that instances they know more than you.

    hopkins has seen a lot, dude has been playing the game, all while blazing his own trail, he made his way through the sport and all the mess attached to it, and he has faired well.

    i think this fight against pascal is a good one for him and think that it's a winnable fight for him. i also think that if he were to get the win and retire that would be a great high note to leave on.

        Only way Pascal beat Bernard is to overwhelm him with activity. Thus far, only two people have done it to him that I've seen: Joe Calzaghe, and Jermain Taylor. And even they had tons of trouble with him. Unless Bernard has aged over night, he's going to cut Pascal's workrate in half, and cruise to a UD.

          Pascal's low activity, jump in and flurry style just isn't going to get it done against B-Hop.

          Hopkins will win a 116-112 type of decision.

            like Roy....Pascal will be one of the few B.Hop opponents that I actually like....but he'll get countered silly for 12 rounds and made to look like a novice in a 36 minute schooling.....since 1 judge will have his or her card marked for Pascal no matter what....I can see a SD for B.Hop....but if its no funny business involved.....a clear UD for B.Hop

              Hopkins UD if he is still anywhere near the level he was at for Calzaghe-Pavlik,

                  Hopkins will drown Pascal in the later rounds.
