” Don’t let the school boy look fool you…I can become the Executioner very quickly.”
May 21 is the date Bernard Hopkins, at 46 years old, will attempt to become the oldest man ever to win a title when he rematches Jean Pascal in Quebec City.
Their first fight was a surprisingly entertaining draw, which saw Hopkins storm back from two knockdowns to outbox Pascal down the stretch. The rally was only enough to earn him a controversial draw. In the below interview with ESPN, Hopkins talks about preparing for Pascal (he still wakes up it 5 AM), Mosley underdog position against Pacquiao, and why Mayweather has the skill set to defeat the Filipino icon. The Executioner does note that Mayweather’s inactivity could possibly be his downfall.
Hopkins-Pascal II will be for Pascal’s WBC light-heavyweight title.
