Lucian Bute vs. Jean Pascal

[The Problem Child]

Bute will win a comfortable decisiob. I am very confident about this pick. I have absolutely no doubt Bute will win this.

I have recently changed my pick to Butte. Like I said I was wavering. I think Butte out boxes Pascal handily.

Neither man has looked great lately IMO and its kind of hard for me to pick this one but I think I have to roll with Pascal on this one. Bute hasn't looked the same since Froch. They both haven't been particularly active but I just feel like Pascal has more in the tank at this point in their careers.

I think Pascal will win this. I'm surprised people think Bute will lol but I could be wrong

Now it's a HBO doubleheader:

Bute-Pascal
Takam-Perez

(Alvarez is fighting someone I've never heard of, and that fight won't be televised)

Nice to see heavyweights Takam and Perez on HBO.

The undercard includes prospects Zewski, Rivas and Beterbiev.

The Quebec media is reporting the Bell Center in Montreal has been reserved for December 7 2013 for Lucian Bute vs. Jean Pascal.

Montreal: beautiful city, good good food, good bad food, bars open late (4 AM, AFAIK), and gorgeous women. Do go.

I'm an ashamed Canuk, who do the wiser minds here like for this fight?

Difficult one to predict.

If Lucian Bute is back to his best form, he'll win. But he's had a long layoff, and didn't look good in his last fight.

[Ringlife]

I like Pascal in this fight by decision.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

I think pascals jittery awkward style is going to cause bute trouble just like it did chad Dawson...

I like pascal by 115-112,,, wouldn't be surprised if they robbed him and gave it to bute

[Drunken Cat]

I get the inkling for some reason that Bute will show up ready for this fight.

Sometimes time away can even be good for a veteran fighter. And if Bute can't get motivated for a fight like this one, his ship has sailed. Unless he is just shot, of course.

I think both fighters are flawed, but Bute is I think the better fighter (if he shows up, that is of course). Of course, Pascal always has a decent shot to win by KO in this fight.
