In I he had zero strategy, just guns out blazing and the guy scored 2 knockdowns and almost took the fight. In II, he came out looking leaner instead of muscular and explosive....with a gameplan to "fight smarter" and the guy got clowned.
    Yeah that's the fight I saw. Kovalev feinting had Pascal hesitant to even try to throw a jab. How did he expect to win the fight? Outbox Kovalev and go 12 rounds to a decision? With the kind of equalizer Kovalev carries? Terrible plan.

      Roach is overrated as a trainer. Pacquiao, Cotto, and now Pascal have all lost.

      Roach is no Eddie Futch, that's for sure.
