    Jean Pascal vs Jermain Taylor

    A lot think if Taylor beat Froch it's because of Carl's lack of defence, speed and skill. How does he fair against a tough chinned, faster, better defence SMW in Pascal? Not to mention Pascals stamina was pretty impressive and certainly better than Taylors, and he was punching hard down the stretch.

    I say Pascals style is a nitemare for Taylor.

      Taylor has not made a fight easy for the past 3-4 years. He always fights at the level of his opponent.

      I do think he wins it though.

        Taylor UD relatively easy, Pascal may win some of the late rounds but his stamina is actually pretty bad. Froch was able to hit Pascal easily and Taylor is alot faster than Froch and has the better jab. Taylor UD.

          i like pascal, but id say taylor wins this fairly convincingly

          also why are people claiming pascal has a good chin,ever since hes fight with froch, i tend to go a bit the other way and say frochs power is not what its cracked up to be

            I believe Pascal could possibly be a harder fight for Taylor than Froch.

              pascal is too open for the jab, so taylor has infinate ways to play his offense....but i get where you think his could be a hard fight........

                Having watched the Froch Pascal match closely and some prior clips of Pascal, he is not aways as open as he was with Froch surprisingly. That was a war. He's a good compact technical boxer. I think his combination of speed, tough chin, not being phased, good boxing skills and decent power create more problems for Taylor than some might think.

                Not said he'd win but it certainly isn't out of the question. Pascal Froch was relatively close and Froch is viewed as a close match up for Taylor. I think in many ways Pascal has a more well rounded game, attributes and style to quite possibly give Taylor more problems.

                  Taylor all the way.

                  Pascal almost got KD by Omar Pittman because he fights so sloppily. He's far too confident in his abilities (or lack thereof); somewhere he got it in his head he's Roy Jones Jr. Jr. as he never puts his hands up and takes wild potshots from the outside. Froch didn't have the speed to hit him flush most of the time; Taylor would.

                  Froch made Pascal look good.

                  I do agree that Pascal gives Taylor more stylistic problems than Froch, but he's nowhere near the boxer.

                  Listen to Teddy Atlas rail on Pascal's lack of control/fundamentals:
