The
star of the show is light heavyweight world titleholder Dmitry Bivol,
who has not even entered his prime but already is one of the best in
the division. But former champion Jean Pascal, written off long ago
by most as a shot fighter, is aiming for one last stand when he
challenges for the belt.
Dmitry Bivol is the favorite; Jean Pascal wants to ruin the party
The
star of the show is light heavyweight world titleholder Dmitry Bivol,
who has not even entered his prime but already is one of the best in
the division. But former champion Jean Pascal, written off long ago
by most as a shot fighter, is aiming for one last stand when he
challenges for the belt.
Most
expect Bivol to plow through heavy underdog Pascal when they meet on
Saturday (HBO, 10 p.m. ET/PT) at the Mark G. Etess Arena at the Hard
Rock Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey,
"I
want to take a moment for the last time and thank HBO," said
Main Events promoter Kathy Duva, whose company has promoted fights on
HBO for decades, including many of the network's 83 boxing cards from
Atlantic City. "This is going to be a very difficult event for
us in a lot of ways. I hope Jean and Dmitry can somehow jolt them
into reconsidering."
That
is unlikely to happen, but Pascal is hoping to throw jolt into the
division and reinvigorate a 13-year career in which he has never
avoided a tough challenge. He has faced opponents such as Bernard
Hopkins (twice), Sergey Kovalev (twice), Eleider "Storm"
Alvarez, Carl Froch, Chad Dawson, Adrian Diaconu (twice) and Lucian
Bute, and always given a top effort in many crowd-pleasing fights.
"This
is the story of my life, to be the underdog," Pascal said. "I
was the underdog when I faced Chad Dawson. At the time he was
considered as (one of) the best pound for pound in the world. I was
the underdog, and I won the fight. To me, maybe it's a motivation. I
know what to do. I know what I'm capable to do. I have a lot of
experience, been there done that. I'm going to do my best to win this
fight."
After
Pascal lost a decision to Alvarez in June 2017, he returned in
December for what he said would be his final fight. He knocked out
then-undefeated prospect Ahmed Elbiali in the sixth round and
retired.
But
the lure of the ring was too much for him to withstand. Pascal, 36,
who is from the Montreal suburb of Laval, returned in July and moved
up to cruiserweight for a novelty fight against Quebec rival and
former MMA fighter and minor league hockey player Steve Bosse. Pascal
knocked him out in the eighth round of Bosse's second boxing match.
Pascal
was planning for another lower-level cruiserweight fight on Nov. 9
when he was offered the unexpected opportunity to challenge Bivol,
who needed an opponent after contender Joe Smith Jr., with whom he
had agreed to terms, opted instead for another fight.
Pascal
(33-5-1, 20 KOs) agreed to return to light heavyweight and accepted
the deal to fight Bivol (14-0, 11 KOs), 27, of Russia, who will be
making his fourth title defense.
"Jean
Pascal is always ready. He never turns down an opportunity. He is a
warrior," Duva said. "He'd like to take Dmitry's title back
home to Canada and confirm his status as a Hall of Fame fighter when
his career is finished. It would make a pretty nice Christmas present
for him.
"Jean
Pascal has won titles and lost titles. But he has never lost anyone's
respect. He has faced every dangerous name in the division for a
decade. Jean's farewell tour is making a stop in Atlantic City. He
doesn't want it to be his last stop."
Pascal
comes into the fight with the confidence of having scored
back-to-back knockout wins, even if they did not come against elite
opponents. But he hadn't had consecutive KO victories since 2006,
when he was still boxing as a super middleweight and well before he
was an established contender.
"Right
now, I don't know if I'm stronger than before, but I feel very
strong," he said. "Of course, I got two knockouts in my
last [two] fights. But I know they weren't elite fighters like Dmitry
Bivol. So I know I'm going to have to pick up my game, but I'm ready
for that. Been there, done that. It's his first (['World Championship
Boxing'] main event. Like I said, for me, been there, done that. I
know what I have to do. I'm ready for this fight. I'm looking for
this fight to be a great fight.
"The
fight is going to be in Atlantic City. Remember, we have a Canadian
story in Atlantic City. [The late] Arturo Gatti is from my hometown,
and he used to fight over there. He became a legend. At the same
time, I'm going to try to honor his spirit and win one more title."
