Comments Thread For: Jean Pascal, Bernard Hopkins Fight To a Majority Draw

[CaRnAgEViOLaToR]

Hopkins was robbed....He probably won every round after 3.

[Dan...]

I scored it 113-113 a draw.

Hopkins won 7 rounds, Pascal won 5. The two knockdowns evened it.

Wow, Hopkins must have nearly shut him out if that is how you scored it.

No, Pascal won the early rounds and scored two knockdowns.

You are an obnoxious asshole.

[PEBBLES!]

Pascal, at best, only won 3 rounds.

10-2 rounds in favour of Hopkins can be justified but even a draw for Pascal is a terrible scorecard.

That's the best I've seen Hopkins in a while.He definitely won at least 8 rounds.He should have made history but got robbed. He should be champion right now. I would love to see a rematch. Bernard might KO him the next time. Pascal had no answer for the straight right hand. Hopkins will use it much more the next fight.

lol yea the very early rounds 1-3 and that's being generous giving pascAL the 2nd and maybe the 5th.114-112, 115-111 either score easy for b hop you see it another way your either from Canada or a pascal nut hugger

[Maymoney]

I agree jvsypes. Hopkins will ko him next time, unless father time gets to him before he gets to Pascal.

Yea that could be a real good fight.

And it would give us a better gauge on both guys.

Good point jvsnypes.....

" If a rematch occurred Hopkins would be probably be favored to win, even it took place in Canada, a testament to the future first-ballot hall of famer’s excellence "

Here are a couple of other interesting viewpoints from one writer.....

" Hopkins’ performance against Pascal was the gutsiest effort by a fighter in his mid-40s since Archie Moore got up from four early rounds knockdowns to drop and stop much-younger Yvon Durelle in a bout that ironically took place in Quebec (Montreal) back in 1958.

Had Hopkins beat Pascal to claim THE RING light heavyweight title it could have been argued that he’s the best fighter to fight into his mid-40s in history. As it is, the Philadelphia native’s late-career accomplishments put him in the all-time great company of both Foreman and Moore "
