In essence Pascal is doing a great job selling the rematch with Kovalev

[Nubia]

He's doing a fantastic job of selling what most would consider a needless rematch. But now there's a lot more tension behind it and people are totally buying into it. It has become about the hot topic of race. It's about black vs white and what's perceived as good vs evil.

Most of us hardcore fans are already familiar with the racist comments Kov has made in his language and country. If not, feel free to do some digging; it's all over the internet. The stuff he says is far worse than calling Stevenson a monkey.

Whether you feel Kov is racist or not, this fight has race written all over it. But the truth of the matter is simple; no matter who wins, it just shows that that particular guy is a superior fighter, but not a superior being. No race is better than another, and it's best we remember that before we all get lost in this "race war" fight. Because let's be honest, that's what this fight is all about.

Why didn't anyone else think of throwing a banana at a black man.

Is that what he did to JDJ yesterday?

I haven't watched it yet. Brilliant if he did though.

Do you remember Mike Tyson saying 'Come here and tell me that, I'll **** you in your ass you punk white boy. You ******.'
After that, do you think people consider Mike Tyson as a racist ?? Well, no, they simply understand that this was only some words said out of anger, that's all !
Why not with Kovalev ? May be this is not possible becauise he's white ?

I have to say that you are just trying to find some kind of intelligence to a man who is sadly not gifted by his IQ level. He's is a real sadomasochist !

Because Kovalev has stated that he likes to punish black opponents and openly calls them racial slurs in his native country.

He's a racist, clear as day. You can think whatever you want though, but nothing will change my opinion on the matter.

so true/!!!!

it sets up perfect,,

because it will be one of those rare times

when a black man can blame a white man for his failures

and actually be telling the truth.!!!!

race vs race its all on the line

Not necessarily. Remember what I said, whoever wins the fight will be the superior fighter, but not the superior human being. No race is better than another. Kovalev may very well win this fight however, Pascal is the one going home with a larger paycheck and even more from the Canadian TV share. Plus he's made millions prior and has been fighting for much longer than Kovalev has and has made much more money than him.

People are better than others in different areas. Whoever wins the fight is superior at boxing, but not everything else.

[KeyboardWarrior]

Honestly Pascal read that racist accusation somewhere and ran with it in an attempt to get under Kovalevs skin.

I hope this fight is more competitive than the first one

Whoever wins this fight will prove whose the better race

It goes both ways with Kov and Pascal, race-wise.

It is getting exciting, but I just don't see Pascal lasting long. He can fight, of course, because Kovalev's defense is his arm coming at your face so he does gets hit, but him hitting you hurts a HELL of a lot more.
