Pascal came back strong at the second half of the round landed a few bombs, Kovalev is so open at times but the obvious problem is being able to survive long enough. Only way anyone beats Kovalev at 175 is by KO.
Man I agree with Hopkins that's a good stoppage. He was wobbling around the ring after Kovalev slipped and then he stood there knowing Kovalev was coming and let him bomb 2 rights without moving.
I get that he recovered earlier but he should have taken a knee at that point. Pabon at that point either has to let Pascal get bombed on while he has no legs or stop it.
And max and Jim was saying Stevenson was NOT at ringside and was talkin hella dirty, then when they find out he is there, and he calls Kovalev out, they sing a different song.
