Expert Boxing Predictions Analysis: The heavier-handed bomber Kovalev (186 Lbs. estimated) is a sharper puncher and better defender than Pascal. Pascal (184 Lbs. estimated) is a gunslinger that throws punches wide, a recipe for disaster against an accurate puncher like Kovalev (85% KO ratio). When Pascal loads up on punches he becomes vulnerable to eating huge punches, which is why he has been hurt badly in previous bouts. Sergey Kovalev vs Jean Pascal Odds Total is at 9.5 Rounds with the Over at +130

The stocky 5’10” 1/2″ Pascal is a good athlete with a solid chin but his dedication outside the ropes has been questioned. Kovalev is not the type of fighter you want to run out of steam against, making Pascal very likely to get stopped before the 9.5 Round Over/Under proposition. The 6’0″ Kovalev will be able to control “geography” with lethal bodypunches inside or outside, utilizing his advantages in height and reach. For an elite fighter Pascal is very hittable and stiff. Bet the well-connected Main Events promoted Kovalev to win by knockout somewhere around the 8th frame.
