    Lots of explosive bursts of high energy activity, fades when asked to sustain that energy over a longer period of time. Basically think sprinter versus middle distance runner.

                  No what its is he has too much muscle. It takes alot of oxygen to feed those muscles. Thats why its very rare you see a real muscular fighter who is champion. They maybe cut and lean with smooth muscles but not ripped. The only way it would work if you start out young and work your way up. Look in the past champions that was ripped. For example look at Evander Holyfield. If you look at Evander's past fights especially at haeavyweight you would see that Evander fights in spurts. He'll throw combinations for about 20-30 seconds then he would bounce and rest and go back to the jab or he'll cover up and let the oppponent hit him. What about Shannon Briggs? If it was a 3 round fight he would still be undefeated. He blames it on his asthma, but its not. I have asthma and I ran track and was in the Army. As long its control he'll be fine. It's those excessive muscles thats slowing him down and using up all of his oxygen. Now Ken Norton was the exception. He worked on his body since he was in high school. But he wasn't bulky. At 6'3" and 215-220 it was a good size for him, so he wouldn't gas out and can still fight a full 15 rounds.

                    His bulk can't help. A lot of O2 and blood being fed to those muscles.

                    Also, he really doesn't have any flow to his style. Tense defense, flurry, tense defense, flurry.

                      There are 2 types of fast twitch muscle fibres....

                      Type 2a and Type 2b...

                      Type 2a are oxidative and possess great contractions speeds (resulting in faster movements) and also are tolerant to fatigue..they have alot of mitochondria..many blood capillaries and large amounts of myoglobin, also breaks down ATP rapidly...helping them to be ideal for most sport athletes

                      Type 2b are fast glycolytic

                      Contain few mitochondria, few blood cappillaries and have a low myoglobin count, but they break down ATP very quickly, resulting in the fastest contractions....the only problem is they fatigue easily compared to Type 1 and Type 2a

                      I just said this off the top of my head as This was 1 of the questions in my exam

                      haha

                      I dunno if pascal actually has Fast Twitch fibres (Type 2b) Maybe he just doesnt do enough for his anaerobic system
