    Pascal vs Hopkins will it be a good fight?

    Pascal is normally in good fights but Hopkins isnt, so how good do you see this fight going?

    Meh...I'm not expecting a war, but the match-up is intriguing. Still not expecting an entertaining fight, but it won't completely boring.

    The reason people will be tuning in is to see B-Hop can turn back the clock for the fourth time in his career. It's to see what Hopkins can do, but I doubt the fight will be FOTY or anywhere near it.

    I'll be tuning in, though.

        Hopkins is not interesting.

        He's maddening.

        I watch his fights because I feel strongly about him, I want someone to finally stick a good one on his chin. Alas, it never happens.

            hopkins is the type of guy with the kind of "i still got something left in my tank" despite of his age. both of them can hit and exchange so probably the winner will be declared by decision. man, i hope hopkins can get back his youth again he would be very fun to watch, a technical artist he is. lets hope we can still see some of those luster come fight night.

              Semi-Boring, not a stinker. Remwember Joe C had a great work rate and still an ok fight. Pascal comes to fight but he's into deep this time, Hopkins will set the pace and you know how it is.

                  I think this fight is a interesting style match-up. Hopkins is going to bring it so I expect a intriguing fight that goes the distance.

                    I got pascal defeating Hopkins. Hopkins has trouble with guys who have great athleticism, high workrate, and have great footwork(Jones, Taylor, Calzaghe)...but owns guys who just come forward/don't move around much at all(Trinidad, Pavlik, De La Hoya, Winky Wright)

                    Take a look at the Hopkins-Jones I fight, Hopkins tried to do the in-fighting, hit and hold stuff he does now...but Jones's reflexes allowed him to prevent him from getting tangled up. Jones in the rematch's reflexes were gone, hence BHop being able to do it that time.

                    Pascal's youth and style i think will outwork Hopkins, plus Pascal's style is similar to Jones. He just needs to build up his stamina and recover his shoulder after workouts better.
