That's easy. I am very confident that Kovalev will KO Pascal quicker and easier than before. I don't think Pascal will win a single round. Roach is a great trainer but Pascal is just not good enough to beat Kovalev or even stay standing very long. No trainer can change that.

[El-blanco]

Had I not seen the Gonzalez fight I'd say he has a chance. But I think he's fallen off a cliff since the first Kovalev fight and will be destroyed in about six rounds. His only chance is if all his trash talk has made Kovalev reckless and he walks into something. Kovalev did become a little reckless in the first fight and he ate some shots but none of them seemed to bother him. These guys are 190 pounds, it's possible one good shot could hurt Kovalev but I just don't see it. He is levels above pascal.

if pascal had fundamentals, i don't know...results may be different. But the Pascal we all have come to love is getting ktfo. That is clear as day.

This seems like a pretty good analysis to me.

I second it.

Kovalev KO5 Pascal

War Krusher Kovalev!!

[Tony Trick-Pony]

Kovalev knocks him out with ease again. I have never seen a solid reason for this rematch.

I would rather have seen Fonfara get the shot.

[Redd Foxx]

Fight should not be happening. The only reason it's even considered acceptable is that people want to see Kovalev beat up on someone they recognise. Kovalev by tko in the 6th.

[ThatDude44]

Kovalev will wreck him but Pascal did land some bombs last fight. I'm gonna go out on a limb and bet someONE 500,000,000,000,000 that Pascal scores a knockdown. Any taker? 1st come 1st serve.
