      I struggle with this... I think Pascal can KO Bute... but it's only after so many things. Like Pascal kind of gasses out in the end and he seems to always hurt his shoulder/arm. Wasn't he injured in the Dicanu, Hopkins and his last fight? I remember he just stopped throwing it because he was hurt or something.

      If I had to pick one, I'd take Bute by decision for outworking him, but Pascal has the power as the bigger man to KO him.

      From a fan's perspective I think a Hopkins fight is more intriguing. I think Hopkins would probably school him but we already know Ward schools him.
      Why not, I suggested that because they got the whole rematch clause I know Bute is just waiting for.

        I was working on the premise that Bute would lose to Pascal. If he wins, the rematch is a strong possibility, you're right. I don't see Bute winning that fight.

          BHOP knows what he's doing. He's famous for schooling slower, flat-footed, slugger types. This fight would mirror the Cloud fight or better yet, Ward's dismantling of Froch.

            EXACTLY....Froch is cool and a good scalp for the oldman to add to his collection...but I wanted him to get Ward....I don't think Dre can match wits with his idol...papa would school him against heavy odds and I could retire and never have to work again

              Froch would win this.

              B-Hop is the man and still a very good fighter, but he does tire more now and Froch can fight a high volume fight if need be.

                Win or lose he ruins you.

                Look at Dawson

                  Hopkins would school Froch

                    Froch puts the old man on a stretcher.

                      Intriguing fight.

                      Hopkins doesn't want to fight Ward because Ward is only a single level below Hopkins in terms of ring intelligence but has the physical tools to overcome that small barrier.
