why did the commentators want a kovalev-pascal rematch?

[Dark Lord Al]

I guess because it was a very entertaining fight. In saying that though, I don't know what more Pascal could do to win. It would likely be the same, but maybe not such a dodgy stoppage. Rematches should be for really close fights, but Pascal was almost at the stage where he would need KD's or a stoppage and typically that doesn't warrant an immediate rematch. Groves/Froch sure as Groves was clearly winning, but Kovalev was winning this one. Kovalev would beat down Stevenson in 6 rounds. They might as well get that one over and done with. I've never understood the Superman buzz.

Remember Pascal had a rock chin , Stevenson doesn't . If Kovalev lands early Stevenson goes byebye.

Carl Froch ruined Pascal.

Fun fight but kovalev was pretty much in complete control other than like two rounds, I guess that makes it much closer than any of his other fights as the dude barely looses a round ever. Also proved he got some pretty solid whiskers if we weren't sold on those yet as pascal hit him with some wild ass looping shots, wouldn't mind watching it down the line again after kovalev doesn't have anyone else to face but will be same outcome if not quicker
