I'm embarrassed for your judging abilities. Did you stop watching the fight after the very first few rounds? If this is the case I see what you mean but if you actually watched the entire fight you would have seen that Hop won, yet a draw is fair(ish) because of the hometown advantage. Having Pascal as the winner is a joke. Hop getting a draw in another fighters hometown who's 18 years younger is a win. Its like I said it was going to be a lose lose situation for Pascal.. I think you're the only one who thought Pascal won. Most say it was a draw while others like myself had Hopkins winning. A draw is fair but Pascal winning is just a joke. Don't look at the punch stats either, you might feel worse about your judging abilities....

The reality is, I had Hopkins winning a close decision but I understand the decision because it was in Pascals home town and he got 2 knock downs.
I was satisfied with it because I knew anything short of a KO, it would be hard for Hopkins to get a decision in Canada.Comment

I suppose that is a very fair call, as-is WESS' post above.The reality is, I had Hopkins winning a close decision but I understand the decision because it was in Pascals home town and he got 2 knock downs.

It's a fkn hard call on Hopkins though, seeing as he know's he won the fight

Yea, I felt the same way in that fight as I did when Holyfield lost to the giant. I know that was Holyfield's last and most likely ONLY hope of ever getting a legit belt again. They robbed him and I bet he would have retired after winning it.
As for Hop, he was almost in the same boat but I he displayed that he can fight on. I just hope he gets the rematch and its in Vegas. Calzaghe came up off the canvas to win in Hops hometown yet Hopkins gets up off the canvas in Pascal's hometown to get robbed of the win. O well, either way I was right. It was a lose lose situation for Pascal and I bet Pavlik was sitting at home thinking F**K YEA, Im not the only one who got there A$$ handed to them by an old man. Pascal was beaten and he knows it. He would have been boo'ed if it was anywhere but in Canada.Comment
