    People b*tch about this rematch (I have on occasion), but Pascal is still a top 5 LHW, maybe #3? He gave Kovalev his toughest fight and will push him again, sharping him up even more for Ward (if SOG shows for that).

    If Kovalev beats Pascal & Stevenson in Montreal in his next two fights, they should make Ward/Kovalev in Montreal to sell the most tickets and even get in on the Canadian ppv.

      Ward would never fight a decent opponent outside of his home country.

      He always has to have home country advantage because he's a selfish prima donna.

          Duva said the agreement stated the fight has to take place in either Vegas or NYC, but I think they'd make more money in Montreal if Kovalev were to get his next two fights there?

            It might make more money, but Princess Andrea is afraid to leave the USA.

              I thought it was a good stoppage. Pascal was out and had no idea where he was. One more clean punch and Pascal would've most likely been out cold in devastating fashion.

                Pascal won some rounds and nobody who can box a little wants a piece of Kovalev. I'm not like when I see Genie Bouchard on t.v. (excited), but I'll still watch the fight.

                  It wasn't a bad stoppage, but I thought it could have gone on a bit longer, then there would have been no crying abut it from Pascal's team.

                    Home advantage doesn't matter if you're the inferior fighter. This fight is a joke

                      But it is an entertaining fight regardless if Kovalev wins again. Roach is training Pascal now, it'll be interesting to see what Pascal will do differently.
