I give Pascal alot of credit I felt like Bivol would take 6-7 rounds to figure him out and then break him down and stop him in 9 but his slickness craftiness and overall veteran savvy allowed him to survive all 12 rounds with Bivol.
easy fight and convenient to Bivol !
Pascal has to retire, it’s better for him and his family
Dear host,
could you please post this fight again
thank you
new video posted;-)
Thank you very much Host for providing new video. I fully appreciate your help.
Prime Kovalev is still better and exciting than Bivol
I hope to see Bivol vs Alvares
Pascal is not a shadow of a boxer, time to put up the gloves and to retire. Bivol showed little skill in winning the rounds that he did. I thought that this fight was sub par. Bivol obviously needs some real opposition to show his skill level
Good fight with a brave Jean trying with no success at all to overcame the storm coming from Russia. Bivol knows very well how to use his jab which mostly stop all the attacks launched by Jean. This fight probed that Bivol, in spite of being a hard puncher, is also a sound technical boxer.
It is about time for Jean to think in retirement.
