and the last dominant Russian R the former Ring magazine IBO and WBC light heavyweight champion of the world Sean Pascal ladies and gentlemen tonight in his third world title defense here is Dri people for the WBA light heavyweight championship of the world going over the rules in the dress room I expect you to b m at all times most of all protect yourself at all times touch gloves good luck but really put up a fight can Pascal do it Roy Jones he had too much power and clocked Barrera with a left hook in the 12th kind of a tweener 68 75lb kind of guy counter puncher didn't get much to work with no sha didn't give him much to work with at all ball after we see that with his leg then we Pascal doing very good here in this first round Pascal will give him a little bit more to work with but Pascal is dangerous so he'll have to protect himself before total of um how many rounds how many judges cards his thighs are larger too he just is more of a sorry more 60 something cards handed in by the judges in those fights 60 rounds scored oh good shot by look at how much big bger his caps are than those of Jean Pascal not a very big light heavyweight you know one of the reasons he can campaign it he by pasc Pascal backs away from that gives bivol a chance to test him against the ROP box numbers dominated by B here's yours you have to continue the combination numbers in the first round totally dominated by Dimitri bivol some bol's power seemed to handle that pretty well until blocked by bold but solid effort by much more relaxed and fluid now than he was early in his career when he was more athletic and sharp 36 figh a 27y old guy get the young guy Roy right like in an exchange when he's not expecting it in in [Music] between then a guy like let's say Koval but it does feel to me like bvol has to work a lot hard John Pascal throwing hard bvol coming back suddenly Pascal is not throwing bivol trying to to slow bivol down but it's hard to win the fight guys is not going to outwork the young Workhorse but you can outsmart it legs so we have to see what happens once he gets hit clean he take much risk but pass take risk figure it out a little bit more along the way off whatever opportunity you give him bascal wants to limit those OP to win the fight on points okay so his his goal is to how his legs rect pascow he's getting hit cleanly right now here pascow just landed know it's funny too uh oh good hook by pcot harle say he goes back right there in the early going and Johan Pascal has never been a guy who throws a lot of PL he's not going to exceed king would call trickery Once Upon a Time in order to more like a 68 75lb hybrid he throws three and four sometimes instead of just one a round in which the landed 17 out of 57 by compy box count and Pascal was two of 21 [Music] [Applause] they don't look unhappy Max Kellerman talked earlier about the trickery he all stand very disciplined while pass got before the right hand came but I mean the hook came but the hook is what drove him to the C just missing with the left hook a little bit behind the year for a full round instead of him being the attacker all the time and now here's a strin well one of those right hands landed with both hands I mean why not good J by of distraction I think the only fighter I've ever known who could have generated starting to throw a few more punches Penny's thrown before and down goes Pascal on a perfect right hand in the center of the Ring by Dmitri Bol no he slipped J he didn't get hit okay falling on a swing in the M this is a whole different ball game being an aete and being a a boxer two different things two totally different both hands with a move like that would be Roy Jones Roy Jones isn't fighting [Applause] anymore pascow backing him up constantly keeping a fight in the middle of the Ring relaxed yet ready to go because his feet are dis yeah it's like Bol doesn't um play into but I think there's a sense with um Eastern European Fighters four consecutive rounds against four different opponents in which the had held opponent to he throws both hands at the same time while he's coming forward that's MMA activity has come to an end and once again he's keeping his hands at home Pascal was a huge Roy Jones fan though yeah he was ball seemed to have body sh by tremendous body shot by B Pascal focusing to the body in this round Trust were supposed to trust you Roy landed in single digits against bivol that was an unusually active round for Pascal he almost never Jordan called me out last week said he can beat the old man so I don't know body shot by knew better but was antagonizing Tony in this round between the hard shots into which he really puts some effort [Applause] [Music] [Applause] last py ball go with the hook head hook body one of my favorite old tricks as a matter of fact sugar ATL taught me that then he comes we check in once again with our unofficial scorer har that hook to the body he brought his whole body with it good left hook one punch at a time for pasc AZ and Pascal spent numerous of years in the gym together so they knew each other very well about Alvarez is he was a good enough maybe it says a lot about Pascal's chin and durability and that's what Pascal was trying to do and now the fire momentarily goes out see how a lot of times the old guy will make one last stand to see if he can do something and if a little bit of the bloom come off the Bol Rose if he isn't able to knock Pascal out but you know who results still occupy bol's mind and against who heed Harold well Jim I got a 60 to 50 knows how to get every inch of his leverage on J Ma and and game character as he lands a big right hand here know each other that well and for Alvarez still to do as well as he did with Pascal Landing only two out of 17 punches while Bol was guy at the height of Koval coming with hard shots Bol waited for the storm to end and now it's his turn but that's what I mean about definitely won't pack it in I can promise you that he not a pack it in kind of a first than so Pascal can't counter with the right hand uppercut by we remember the rounds where the other guy was able to fight back a little bit credit for knocking him out and now tries to follow it up this might be the moment he was looking for Roy in the middle of the Ring he's using that left chair beautifully to set up a hard right hand and the last dominant rushan right he's fought the next tier down the older fighter who used to be elite the younger with the left hook to the body landed both accurately sted now and that's a whole other problem set but he can do more unpredictable things in there am I am I right in saying that pascow spended a lot of energy in the first 30 seconds of this [Applause] round Don Pascal arrived here what it takes to be voted into the international Boxing Hall of f round the eighth that was the good news but Bol landed Alvarez Pascal is going to land some good Power Shot was very upfront and telling can't throw it all the way to g b is going to have s enough to go to his body after this so he can't throw it all the way that's what he's doing now isly as in the two fights against Sergei kovalev he'll take frightening punishment to try to stay in there yes he that was the good news but Bol landed 21 by comp box count he a dominant fighter Bol tough overall package to he presents with maybe a better overall game time will tell a more athletic kind of longer the way bivo you show showed on the replay is that I catch him with a big right hand and knock in now Pascal looking away from good while punching at him's trying every trick in the book Roy and some of it worked December 11 a beautiful straight right hand when bball came in with his own right hand great counter right hand right there bouncing a little bit to try to warm up his legs and get ready for wild flurries by Pascal in the seventh round that suddenly got Chad Dawson and trended a lot of energy in the first minute and still has two here and there gave him certain difficulties but it really speaks to the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world that's an amazingly high standard right there just is he erup like a storm or does he stand back passively and wait to see what I'm going to do shot is that body attack that's when he was doing business I agree with you me we'll see what happen should Mikey Garcia have become the best light heavyweight in the world or at least prove it get ready for round 10 OB a schedule 12 it's Max Kellerman point to both sides of the equation but basically I agree with you Max yeah kind of the second highest level where we remember the time on a night when Dawson thought he was totally in control now Pascal's doing good the best work of it's the passive weight 100% both guys seem to have a little mouse under but he has told us told me in a postf fight interview Monte [Applause] Carlo he's had so many personas in the fight by Jean pascow I got to be ugly but mostly blocked and then Boles are landing much more is also fighting and also Landing punch to sleep right by coming out with an total absence of somebody need to turn that Mouse into a r enough to compete with Errol Spence I think big enough and his style of boxing is definitely uh making felt that that he's really been at risk I thought Pascal landed one good not great but it was a good besty show a lot of heart punches chilemba to a lesser degree I remember back in 2009 it was one of those people've all must Wonder every time he comes out what's going to happen now sense of activity and looks for the moment when he can leap into mascal almost loses B think it's a smart move for him to necessary to challenge Errol Spence [Applause] because around Fain and then shoot one two that's all I need from you 12 and [Applause] final has not been his last fight so at this point it would seem like ball maybe but in a way because of that he doesn't seem imagine sitting out there right now in the boxing World watching this on TV Pascal has made it into the 12th round with theit Bol I'm sure Ro however impressed pasc for him so Styles May fight so we all not having a heavy jab like kov has make it to this point though so this why the fights are so interesting for us a question is not able to get him out with the right hand or the scared of Bol I'm I'm not concerned about whether I have to fight that guy not impressed you are by Bol you don't think it's going to be easy thing you can say is there are very interesting dominant figure around whom the division revolves but in fact division gets even more interesting there's no clear front runner in the division there's pursuing it to the end Pascal your winner by unanimous decision dri [Music] B so unanimous decision for bivol and uh the look on Pascal's face as the
