3 years later, I love watching this again. This is easily still the best Face-Off ever, and hearing Pascal talk so animatedly about how "old man" Hopkins was supposed to age overnight is just hilarious. What's even more hilarious is looking at where both fighters are at now. Bottom line: don't mess with an old man. Especially if he's an alien!
Let's look at where both of the fighters are now, Kovalev just dominated Hopkins and Pascal is just recovering from a series of unfortunate injuries. Pascal is probably getting fight against Kovalev in 2015 and maybe one against Adonis Stevenson.
@mm. Stop it this was the best Face Off ever! Bernard has beat many fighters with more talent and that were younger because he got them in their feelings. Floyd is dope but most if not all the fighters Floyd fought he had an advantage over.
"his goner be on the short list of deers, that i gotta go ahead and spank, because he got a little fresh, and when you get a little fresh i gotta check u" OH B-HOP IS A LEGEND.
E MM this face off was over the second Pascal said let's talk in French clearly giving Hopkins an automatic advantage this language is Pascal fourth language if it was in French Pascal first language he would get the win or Creole I think his 2nd or 3rd he would have won and ask him questions he clearly don't get nor understand
hopkins- "kids, drugs are bad for you, this is your brain on drugs, they make you delusional" pascal- " listen to him, he got experience so listen to him" lol i pissed my pants laughing at this
Funny, funny, funny! I remember i saw a clip of this during the airing of their live rematch. I remember how upset i was how much talking pascal was doing but that old saying,time heals all wounds. And it didn't take long at all to appreciate how funny this interview was. To list the number of memorable funny moments in this interview would b impossible!!! Their bad blood for each other was an extremely hilarious affair. One of the many highly intertaining highlights of this all time classic interview was when pascal was mocking hopkins style of fighting and immediately hopkins knew how to counter his statement by questioning the fact of how he went 12 rounds with a guy like pascal imitated. Immediately afterwards that infuriated pascal so much to the point that he told hopkins he was going to beat his ass! Perfect interview, great commentator like Max kellerman to conduct it and 2 good fighters that kept viewers intertained throughout the whole piece!!!
I will say this, Pascal actually made Bernard fight an entertaining fight. He ain't fought one of those in like 10 years LOL. I couldn't believe my eyes to see Bernard actually scrapping toe to toe with someone it was great to watch.
Yes Jose Soto, Pascal eyes were initially firm at first. Then the more Bernard Hopkins kept talking, the less confident Pascal seemed. You are exactly right
jose soto Okay we've find out that I was human....when we fought. I got knocked down an I got up. I didn't raise the bar so high. Even Max Kellerman!! is saying aye! "you got knocked down!" Like! OOkay! Like great! fighters got knocked down! "Ray Robinson, Muhammad Ali".. So...now I know I'm in this light. That I'm god now an I'm not suppose to get knocked out, but guess what?....I got knocked down! Anybody can be knocked down! Anybody can be knocked out! but *It's not, what happened! It's what happens next!*
This is by far the best face off by Max id ever seen, very intertaining!! "Did you just hear what this idiot said,which way the camera go. He said is not all about the W". It's all about the W,are you crazy? What do you think im doing this for?" Classic!!
This is the funniest face off in history surely like wtf are they doing hahahahaha both speaking to the camera , pascal keep calling him an old man too hahaha
The thing is Pascal is probably the guy to give hopkins his toughest fight in a looong time and I'm pretty sure he hit Hopkins more than Hopkins has been hit in many a years. In their rematch Pascal was there for all 12 rounds and lost a close fight. If he was only a 4 round fighter Hopkins would have stopped him. Roy Jones seems to be training Pascal to conserve energy so that he isn't tired by the 6th round but the 12th, that's a big improvement. More time learning under Roy will do wonders for him hopefully.
