    I think Bhop explained how Pascal lands shots, because of how unpredictable they are. His starting point wouldn't flow with where the punch ends up.

    IMO that is why Pascal landed. I also like Kovalev's explanation on boxingscene where he said Pascal threw wild shots, to which he did.

    Kovalev got hit because he fought a good fighter with alot of experience who took chances (stuff we dont see at HW). It almost sounds like you guys want him to have a Mayweather defense.

    Kovalevs is a hard puncher no doubt and a work in progress. Good progress so far.

    I'm not saying he should have a mayweather like defense. I'm just saying theres and obvious hole there. Pascal landed there, Caparello landed there, Hopkins landed there...It gets overlooked because Kovi eventually waded through their offense and conquered. So if that's my fighter, I close the hole or minimize the window of opportunity by managing his angles, distance or the set position of the other fighter by having him keeping them from setting....Mostly because I know if I was training the other guy.. that counter is exactly where I would look to have my fight start snowballing offensive opportunities from. Easy way to keep a guy from teeing off on you is not give him and opportunity to start.

    Kovi has a great chin, but he'll last longer by not relying on it. Pascal relied on his chin and you saw where that got him. Just sayin..
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    Both Kovalev and GGG have scary power. Monstrous punchers.
