Pascal tried to impose power boxing and exchange with blows to the champion, but Bivol’s advantage in speed and technique was overwhelming: the Russian successfully avoided most of the veteran’s predictable attacks and conducted his own successful series. The best for Pascal was the tenth round, where he was able to conduct a series of successful attacks, but he spent a lot of energy and gave the Russians the next two rounds.

Nevertheless, Bivol neutralized the attacks of the perked opponent in the next round, and at the end of the final three minutes he was close to an early victory. The result of the battle was the victory of Bivol by unanimous decision of the judges with a score of 118-110, 119-109 (twice) [5] .
