    So that's how you "win" arguments. By boring the other to death and making him lose all hope to make you see any kind of common sense and then give up.

      Pascal always does that kind of thing at the staredown. When he fought Branco, he actually pushed him with his head. Same thing happened against Diaconu. A staredown doesn't mean that much to me. Sometimes the most intimidating or seemingly confident guy gets completely outclassed during the fight...

        big muscles tend to fade in the mid to later rounds, usually, not always the case, but it has been a fact in pascals case. pascal is an action fighter, it pays off or it wipes you out.

        pascals chances are very good in this fight but i don't think he's seen half of the craft that hopkins possesses............ i expect hopkins to grind pascal down and have him confused......

        either way, it's going to be a good fight, i think their styles and the makings of this fight clash well for us fans......... even all you hopkins haters who thinks he's boring, this is a classic style match up.....

        i favor the precision of hopkins, his ability to dissect fighters, and take away a fighters best asset, no matter what it is.

            True that Pascal tends to fade late in fights, but Hopkins is the kind who likes to slow the pace, so I don't think there will be stamina problems for Pascal. IDK how Pascal will react to the holding and all the tricks Hopkins brings though.

            Anyway, i see Pascal having enough steam to put rounds in the bag early and then lose maybe 5 of the last 7 rounds to win a decision 115-113 or 116-112. No way Pascal KO Hopkins, unless Hop really feels his age in the ring.

                He will punish him in front of all the Canadians and then execute him viciously!

                THE EXECUTIONER IS BACK!!!

                      Hopkins is starting to look fragile. I don't like Hopkins myself but would be sad to see him get brutally K.O'd.

                      I want him to lose just so he goes away and retires but not so badly, as that would be a little sad, just enough for him to he to rethink about lacing them up again.
