Jean Pascal (29-2-1, 17KOs) is very confident as training camp continues for his March 14th HBO televised title fight with WBA/IBF/WBO light heavyweight champion Sergey Kovalev (26-0-1, 23KOs) at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Canada.
The World Boxing Council made an unusual ruling last December at their annual convention. Although there is no WBC world title at stake, the sanctioning body has ordered their light heavyweight champion to face the winner of this match.
Pascal would love to get his countryman in the ring and there is serious bad blood between them.
"Who is Stevenson? Are you talking about Chickenson? You mean A-Duck Chickenson, because I don't know no Stevenson," Pascal said to BoxingScene.com.
Kovalev is regarded as the most feared puncher in the entire 175-pound division. Pascal is not worried about the Russian's power and plans to earn some early respect with some power of his own.
"I don't fear nothing. I don't fear nobody. I'm Jean Pascal. I'm the best boxer in the world in my mind, so it doesn't matter if he's fast, it doesn't matter if he hits harder than Mike Tyson - I'm going to be in the ring and I'm going to win this fight," Pascal said.
