Comments Thread For: Kovalev: Pascal Was Crazy and Wild, Didn’t Have Heart!

[removed]

Pascal has always had loads of heart. Not sure what Kovalev is talking about.

[Drunk Punch]

I think Kovalev decided he didn't like Pascal and he didn't want to give him any credit in the post fight interview. It was a clinical performance.

I think he meant that Pascal is heartless = merciless or sometimes relentless. that's why he mentioned first that Pascal is a wild man.

[Agent Mulder]

I think he meant what he said. Pascal was basically trying to be a snake and sneak Haymakers. It's what he was reduced to. I give him props but understand why Kovalev feels that way. He didn't come to box or fight. He came to basically steal a win.

I was pretty impressed with Pascal. I thought Kovalev was going to smash him. Pascal hit him with some great shots and one particular to the body really hurt Kovalev. I must admit there were a few moments that I thought the fight was really slipping away from Kovalev. All in all I still thought it was a pretty decent stoppage. Pascal call could barely walk!

i think something got lost in translation too because the sentence doesn't make sense otherwise. i think he meant to say that he has heart. i was there to support Pascal although i wasn't surprise by the outcome . it was pretty intense to hear the crowd every time Pascal had a moment. I think he showed a lot of heart and definitely didn't want to lose face in front of his fans. I think the stoppage was a blessing to save his dignity because kovalev would have send him to sleep a couple seconds later.

He did say it, earlier in the press conference. He doesn't like Pascal, and he's not going to change his mind. It's kind of like Froch after he KO'd Groves, nothing but scorn for him.

Fans want to see respect after a fight, but sometimes the fighters just don't feel that way.

The part I saw it was the reporter saying it to Kovalev and for some reason I cannot find the complete press conference.

Kovalev just admitted that he is a sadist, i love it:

***8220;I let him go to continue the fight. I didn***8217;t rush to stop the fight. If I got him one time, I can in the future, the next rounds ***8230; He will come,***8221; Kovalev said,


***8220;I wanted to send him on the floor, deep sleep, but referee stopped the fight,***8221; Kovalev said.

Thats what I like about this dude. Has no intention of leaving it to the judges, nor playing it safe. Just wants to go in there, and destroy.

I see it like this. Some fighters just aren't with the trash talk. They don't care if its supposedly just to "hype up the fight". Boxing, is the most personal sport there is. So when a man, uses words to try and put you down, he better come with it when its time to let the fists fly. Too many clowns posing as fighters these days trying to be slick with the lip like Ali. Its even funnier when they get beat up for it. Myself as a fan, the trashtalk doesn't do anything for me, especially when the guy talking all the trash, is in retreat mode all night.

Yeah I know, the full conference is on youtube. Greisman has it on his youtube channel but there are better versions.
