Pascal - BHop, who ya got and why?

I got Pascal simply because of youth. I think BHop's finally starting to show his age.

Haven't seen either guy fight in a couple of years. Hopkins is no longer the guy that beat Tito or floored De La Hoya with one body shot, but he's still dangerous because he never was a big puncher. He always won with generalship, smarts, and a liberal sprinkling of dirtiness. If the ref lets him hold, elbow, and butt, Hopkins wins a close split decision. If not, could be any outcome. I will say this, international boxers tend to be more thrown off by the "Philly Style" than Americans. Pascal isn't as "international" as some, but still. BUT, this guy beat Chad Dawson, who at the time I thought was the best light Heavyweight since RJJ. Tough one to call for me since I thought Hopkins would lose other fights long before this but found ways to win.

I'm going to take B-Hop. I just think his savyness and ring generalship will be the edge for him hin this fight. In the first fight, B-Hop pretty much controlled the fight, with pressure and keeping Pascal on his heels. I think Pascal will come out sharp for the first couple rounds but, in the end, B-Hop wins by a Majority Decision.

If Pascal comes prepared, BHop gets knocked out.

Just read this:


danrafaelespn Dan Rafael



Pascal was 175. BHop was 175.9. Then BHop stripped down nude and was 175.4. Moments ago, he returned to the scale and made 174.14 oz.

BHop's weight drained it seems. He's gonna balloon to 190 come the fight. I'm gonna be watching this and the undercard prolly.
