By June, Ivanka's due date was approaching, and Link took time out to attend a boxing match in Las Vegas against WBA world title challenger Jean Pascal.
Jean Pascal was an old adversary; in 2009, they had both vied for the WBA North American championship.
Compared to two years ago, Pascal's skills had improved slightly, but he was still far behind Link. After two rounds of fighting, Link secured a KO victory 22 seconds into the second round.
A professional record of 27 fights, 27 wins, 27 KOs.
Because of the obvious gap in their abilities, the fight received less attention and the PPV sales were also somewhat lower than the previous match, with 1.84 million copies sold in North America and other revenues also falling short of the last fight.
Link's purse for this fight was 64 million US dollars, more than ten million less than the last one.
