Oh nevermind, MMA has sensible matchups.

Hopkins has a hell of alot better track record in the last 2 half years than randy wolf if your gonna troll the boxing forum atleast try and be good at it

when was the last time Randy beat the man in a division?

bet wolf doesnt even know Hopkins record in his last 5 fights

I don't know that BHOP is a P4P fighter, this is true. But I also don't even know or care about whoever Pascal is either.

He is the recognized light heavyweight champion of the world.

As for countering Pascal's rushes. I think BHOP will just muffle them. When Pascal attacks he may land one punch but if you just step into him, I don't believe he is going to be able to land much more. Dawson just stood there with the ear muffs on (or he went straight back).

Is Pascal physical enough to keep from getting stifled? Maybe. Will BHOP wear down? Probably.

I see Pascal being ineffective in an ugly fight where neither guy looks good. Sounds like every BHOP fight doesn't it!!!!!!

Do people actually think BHop will win? I love the guy and wouldn't count out an upset but I think he's going to get beat up.

I actually like Hopkins to win this fight (of course I never wasted my time watching Hopkins-Jones so I'm going off performances before that)

I like BHOP in an ugly fight. Pascal, while explosive, is predictable, and not busy enough. I think BHOP and brother Nazeem will have this guy figured out.

I think THAT is the right issue. Pascual won't beat BHOP fighting the way he did against Dawson. What I don't know is does he have another activity gear that he tactically decided not to use against Dawson. If he does that changes the equation quite a bit I think.
