On November 24, 2018, at the Mark G. Etess Arena inside the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey, undefeated WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol defended his title against former unified champion Jean Pascal in the final main event of HBO’s World Championship Boxing era. From the opening bell, Bivol established control with his sharp jab, clean right hand, and disciplined footwork, repeatedly catching Pascal as he tried to close distance. Pascal had brief success—particularly in the middle rounds—but struggled to deal with Bivol’s accuracy, timing, and consistency. As the fight progressed, Bivol increased his output and variety, mixing in combinations while maintaining defensive responsibility. Pascal showed toughness and durability, but was largely outboxed and unable to shift momentum. After twelve rounds, Bivol secured a clear unanimous decision victory, with official scorecards reading 119–109, 119–109, and 117–111, successfully defending his WBA title. 📍 Date: November 24, 2018 📍 Venue: Mark G.
