Comments Thread For: Pascal-Hopkins Will Head Back To Canada, Bell Centre

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Light heavyweight contender Bernard Hopkins has confirmed that his rematch with IBO/WBC champion Jean Pascal will take place at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Canada on May 21. Although Hopkins' promoter, Golden Boy Promotions, outbid Pascal's promoter, GYM, in the mandatory purse bid, the fight made the most financial sense to take place on Canadian soil.

Makes more sense then the 4000K people they would have gotten in the US

Sounds like a good place for a flag-burning. Not that I've got anything against Canada, and I'm sure that Nard loves the place as well it just sounds like a good idea

Pascal-Hopkins II is a great fight and 2011 is shaping up to be a solid year.

A sold out Bell Centre will be tough for Hopkins to silence, but if anyone can do it, Bernard Hopkins can.

Dawson is on the same card and will be watching to fight knowing he will be fighting the winner.

David Lemeiux on the undercard would be the icing on the cake.

I hope that B-Hop doesn't get screwed in Canada again.

Well half of the blame will go to GBP this time if things go wrong in Canada again

4000k = 4 million... The misspelling is understandable, though...

Suppose if the fight is very similar this time, minus Bernard doesn't get knocked down, legit or not, then he ought to take it(I know, duh).

Could be better than solid. Wladimir vs Haye looks like a go, and the winner of this fight may fight Dawson, among other fights out there. That little fight in early May most seem to hate on may also turn out better than expected...

Come on Pascal, have a feeling he is going to come out firing in this one....
