Hopkins Vs. Pascal II Live Results: Round 10
Both men came out in the tenth round looking to establish their jabs. Pascal would find a left hook and an uppercut early in the round, looking to find some answer to the timing and rough style of Hopkins.
For the second straight round, Hopkins connected with a punch and Pascal slipped, touching his glove to the mat. The ref called it a slip again, but the main takeaway was that Hopkins had Pascal confused and those right hands were catching him offguard if nothing else.
The round ended with both men flurrying but neither man doing any damage.
