Re: Looks like it's Kovalev - Pascal 2
Horrible rematch imo, the first fight was really good, but only competitive for a couple of rounds. Pascal was fucked early, fought out of his skin to get through it and land his best punches, couldn't hurt Kovalev with them and then got flattened. At the absolute best it would be a repeat of that, the way I see it, so what's the point. Pascal-Stevenson would be a much more interesting fight.
Re: Looks like it's Kovalev - Pascal 2
Yeah.... Pascal should fight Stevenson before he gets permanently ruined by Kovalev.
Re: Looks like it's Kovalev - Pascal 2
Pascal and Stevenson live in the same city for crying out loud, that should be a no brainer of a fight to make and I have to imagine its Stevenson who doesn't want it, nothing else makes much sense.

Pascal, don't bring your daughter this time, she's cute as she can be and doesn't deserve to see her father take another beating, if it happens!
:confused:
I think the children/family of boxers have it hard. How many times has a boxer got whooped -I MEAN BAD!!! And the camera's next shot is the child crying. Think Arguello's son after Pryor. Marvis talked about it after Frazier/Forman
Chad Dawson busted up by Pascal- 30 minutes prior he comes to the ring with his son.
Cotto's whole family after Margarito I.
Most recent is Pac's wife balling her eyes out over JMM KO. I mean does the camera man dictate this? or is there some cruel producer saying ":in the event of a knockout- be on standby for ANY family members reactions.
Yeah, man Pascal's daughter didn't need to see it, but hey...it is what it is!!
I know things aren't going to change, just venting about the callousness of it.

He has the WBC "Diamond" belt so that makes him automatic mandatory
Re: Looks like it's Kovalev - Pascal 2
Stevenson v Pascal makes sense but Kovalev is the best light heavyweight.

Yes I know but they just do not make the big fights we want so have to go through all the leading contenders first. :)
Re: Looks like it's Kovalev - Pascal 2
I never thought for a second RJJ could improve Pascal. RJJ was a reflex phenom, not a textbook boxer. How can he teach one to throw 4 left hooks in a row?
Re: Looks like it's Kovalev - Pascal 2
I think Pascal was trying to model himself after RJJ whether he was there in his corner or not. It was pretty apparent. In that respect, i guess i see the point in trying to get advice from the guy who had more success with it that you did. Im not sure if it was more practical application or theory though. I dont know how much one camp can do either. Roy seems to umm... "dabble" in training. Between vargas, and pascal..... i dont know if there is someone whos corner hes in all the time every time. Which he really should if he wants to be a trainer. maybe after hes done fighting.
