Hopkins : Pascal will win vs Kovalev

[El-blanco]

Are people forgetting that Pascal hung with Froch over 12 rounds? Kovalev is definitely the favorite but don't be surprised if Pascal wins.

Lol@froch. The guy who got outboxed by George ****in groves? Big deal. Hopkins also thought kovalev was the reincarnation of kelly Pavlik.

I have a feeling Pascal is going to caught with something while lunging in like he tends to do.

Hahahaha!!!!!!!!!

Let's see, that fight took place in 2008? Yes, yes we have forgotten.

Hahahaha!!!!!!!

Interesting fight but I think Pascal loses by late round KO or UD.

So Kov is the favorite because his firepower and how hard he hits and that Hopkins knows something. What does he know that he couldn't execute during the fight? It was obvious Sergey is more than just a puncher by the fact that he pretty much shut out Bernard. If he really knew something he would've been able to do something about it during the fight. He didn't mention anything about Kovalev's boxing skills. Hopkins does sound a bit bitter to me in the way he came off regarding Kov.

Dude is salty the white man is on the top of the food chain in the division.

He's picking the guy he beat to beat the guy who beat his ass. Maybe he'll end up being right, but it's obvious what the thought process is.

And Kovalev is bigger, stronger, hits harder, and is more technically sound, while Pascal is 7 years older. So what exactly does Froch/Pascal have to do with anything?

[-MAKAVELLI-]

Hopkins choosing the black guy he beat over the white guy that beat his ass...sounds about right

[VatoMulatto]

I want to see a good competitive fight but Kovalev's relentless offense and high pace will most likely be too much. Pascal can only win this fight by KO. Let's see how Kovalev deals with Pascal's speed explosive style and punching power. This can be an early night.
