    Comments Thread For: Pascal: This Won't Be The Same Froch Against Bute

    Former light heavyweight champion Jean Pascal (26-2-1, 16KOs) does not believe Carl Froch (28-2, 20KOs) is the same fighter who beat him in 2008. They fought toe to toe in a twelve round war for the vacant WBC super middleweight title. Froch won a twelve round decision to give Pascal his first loss. Pascal would later move up in weight.

    I kinda have to side with Pascal on this one.

    Before when he was coming up Froch was fighting for glory. He left it all in the ring against Andre Ward. From this fight onwards it will be all about the money.

      I don't think Pascal is right about this one. We've always had one Froch, and he'll stay like that and if he loses the hunger I think he is clever enough to retire and live happily ever after with Rachel.

      Pascal is probably looking for a rematch, or hyping himeself saying that he faced the best Froch.

          I'm unsure about this. I mean Pascal does make a decent point but we'll only find out on the night.

          But I have a friend who works for a paper in Nottingham & he says that Froch has become really forgetful over the years & suffers from really bad memory loss. Whether its true or not I don't know but that would be seriously worrying if it was true.

            Hard to really argue. The guy has had arguably the hardest run of fights in modern boxing history. I just have a bad feeling this is where its gonna take its toll. Bute's style poses a lotta problems regardless though.

                Froch has had a tough run, but the last war he was in was against Kessler, and if anything he has shown improvements since then.

                He was clearly beaten by Ward but not in a way that would take something out of a fighter.

                  Are you sure about that? In the post fight interview that was the first time I've heard Froch admit he lost. He usually has an excuse. But he knew downright he lost. That can do something to a fighter mentally.

                  The thing people don't understand about when you fight counter, slick boxers like Mayweather, Hopkins, Ward... is that they not only beat you physically, but mentally. So I hope it doesn't effect him as much as it did Hatton when he lost to Floyd.
