[John Locke]

Nice!

[LomaUsykKlichko]

Very good fight. I was hoping for stevenson but this isnt a bad fight at all.

[BTL]

How much money will each fighter get?

[bojangles1987]

It's an interesting fight, but Kovalev would beat Pascal down. Pascal's inactivity dooms his chances in this fight barring the typical puncher's chance.

[SnakeVen0m]

This could be big money for both guys, I can see them putting it on PPV in Canada.

[TudorMiron]

That would be great fight!!! There are couple of reasons why this fight is very possible even considering that Pascal is Stivenson's mando.

Stevenson is asking lion's share for this fight and Pascal doesn't agree with it because he is the real draw in Canada and not Stevenson.

Sergey would definately agree to 50-50 split.

There's punchers chance for Pascal and thats about it.

[PK3434]

I hope this fight happens just so Stevenson is left without a good opponent. There should be consequences for blatant ducking and being unreasonable.

Stevenson's team probably wants the threat of a purse big where Pascal would only get 25% of the money....But Kovalev can offer Pascal a really good deal if he wants.

[Foreign Soil]

Excellent matchmaking. Hopefully it comes off.

damn good fight, Pascal is a top level operator, fast and has some pop of his own but lacks killer intent and fades far too often all the time! Kovalev would start to dominate the latter rounds but it has the potential to be a fun fight
