Originally posted by mathed View PostYeah man, he just doesn't have it inside anymore. He landed almost every time he threw a punch but he just stood there using the Mosley tactic when all he had to do was throw a damn jab or two, side step and repeat all night. He must have been having flashbacks of the Froch stoppage or something because technically and stylistically, Pascal was tailor made for him. He never followed up once he did land a flush punch and he let Pascal dictate the fight when Pascal was doing the same thing time and time again. All dude had to do was throw the straight left when Pascal attempted that wide looping right and he would have countered him successfully every time and halted his flurry attempt right there.
It's time for Bute to hang the gloves up because he is in a business of landing punches on the other man and if you are afraid to let your hands go, then you are out of a job.
Interesting thing is, I still firmly believe he is more skilled and could have beat Pascal last night if he would have actually tried. I agree with you last statement, hang them up if you're not willing to engage. I also hated how he stood behind Pascal holding his hands up, what a weak little sissy.

And I think Perez is mentally not right after what happened with Mago... He is scared of the same thing happening to himself or another opponent. It's a scarring experience that has a lasting impact on you. You changed another's man's life forever for the worse... and even though it wasn't intentionally and it is part of the sport, that is probably how he sees it and with good reason.

He controlled the distance, pace, and landed the much harder shots. He also nearly dropped Perez in the 10th.....no way in hell can I see that as an even fight, especially with Perez being as much as a 10:1 favorite to win coming in.
