Bernard Hopkins to fight Jean Pascal in December
Jean Pascal didn't waste any time capitalizing on his recent win over Chad Dawson.
Pascal will defend his WBC light heavyweight title against 45-year-old Bernard Hopkins on December 18 in Quebec City.
Hopkins' last fight was a one-sided victory over Roy Jones Jr. in April. Hopkins fell to his knees in his dressing room after the fight.
Hopkins wrote on his twitter page "I will beat Pascal".
