Lol, and I thought I was picky on typo's. All the slang and major misspellings and you pick on that one. Ta tho I spose.

They're similar but Nard is taller and rangier but enough that it'll be a factor imo. Jean's gona be jumping in/out and Nard's gona time him with a stance that he could just cleverly counter and completely keep him off. If Jean was taller and rangier I don't think Nard could do that quite so easily.

I doubt you should be picky, with spelling like that Oh, and I simply pointed it out, without any foul language. Hope we cool

I'm not saying it is good for Pascal to be slightly shorter, but the difference is rather small. Pascal is still young, so shouldn't be an issue "reaching" for Bernard's head. If his reach is good enough, I wouldn't worry about it. And not like Pascal won't have a big advantage in there...

I'm usually fairly good but less so on here, plus I do go wrong on gramma. So not at all, appreciate you picking me up on it funnily enough. Just far worse on these boards fella tis all.

The difference isn't big, but what matter's with height/reach differences is the styles of the fighters. It could be a minor but with the style match-up I still think it's more so here. I was 50/50 on this fight, given some of Jean's comments re; chasing him, getting a bit stared down at the conference and now realising this, I'm favouring Hopkins.

In any case, hoping for a reasonably clean fight, so there would not be some ****** thing that ends it prematurely. Would be nice for it to last a few rounds before a possible TKO/KO(there is a chance, I suppose...), as well. Otherwise, there may be lots of silly talk about skill levels of both(guess it will happen, anyways...).

Any video for the weigh in?

There's no way I can see a 'KO' personally. Very possible a TKO but even then I'd be surprised.

Look at the hard digs Pascal took from Froch. As for Nard, he simply isn't caught often enough and has never been close to being KO'd. Jean's not doing it.

I see a close decision. Gona get dirty at times but yeah hopefully it's clean for the most part.

After the fight, Bernard will want to start his new career... try becoming the new agent of Jean and a couple of other great boxers.
