Carl Froch (23-0, 19KOs) is planning to go to war when he takes on Jean Pascal (21-0, 14KOs) for the vacant WBC super middleweight title on December 6 at the Trent FM Arena. He sees the toughest fight of his career coming up, one that will make him or break him as one the elite. [details]

Froch is going to rule 168lb.
He has a unique style, tremndous chin and an outrageous punching power in either hand.
Expect Pascal to get knocked out. -
I expect him to get knocked out because he isn't very good.Originally posted by cityfgod View Post
Froch really should handle this guy quite easily.Comment

Whilst i dont think he is of the same metal as Froch, i think Pascal will be in the shape of his life, because let's face it - a boxer dreams of being WBC champion of the world and this is the biggest night of his 15-odd year boxing career !
Froch still connects and Pascal's outta there.Comment

All true but he's slow and has a shocking lack of defence.Originally posted by cityfgod View Post
Win, yes... Rule at 168... hmmm?Comment

I haven't seen enough of pascal to back him in this fight. Froch has power in either hand and throws punches from unorthedox angles. I know pascal has speed and that may be frochs biggest problem. One things for sure this is froch first fight against a world class opponent! He might get found out, but I doubt it!Comment

Regrettably, I haven't seen much of Froch except on highlights. I do know one thing, the man can talk. I wouldn't be suprised if after his fighting career he takes a job ring side. He seems to be very knowledgable about the sport. He knows much about current and former fighters, from all weight classes.
I do know, he won't rule 168. Kessler will beat him when/if they fight. I also don't know if he would get past Bute, Andrade, and if he gets his wish to fight Taylor at MSG, he may lose.
Pascal is a slick boxer who has been transplanted to the fighting city of Montreal. He has power in his right hand, moves his head well and is pretty good on the defensive side. I would like to see the "killer" side of Pascal more. He just seems like a nice dude, I want him to have a controlled anger in the ring.
Good fight for both fighters to take at this point in their career's. Someone's
"0" has to go. I'm glad to see that aren't ducking eachother.
Does anyone know if this fight will be televised in the States? A tragedy if not.Comment

Very intelligent boxer with no real attribute in terms of power, speed etc
But he`s very effective at fighting in small spells and is able to win rounds just through effectiveness.
Id give him every chance of holding onto a world title for a good few years. Though i suspect he`ll never quite have the natural talent of a calzaghe to ever dominate a divisionComment
