Pascal is a worse prospect than froch for bute
he's faster than froch, and hits about the same hardness, his chin is not quite as good and he doesn't have the stamina but will that matter?

But Pascal is feather fisted, he's smaller and has the same reach with Bute.
Pascal thinks he would win by "pressure fighting"... He's wrong -- if Bute's left hand healed well, he'll counter Pascal very badly.

Originally posted by nodogoshi View PostI 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.
I have to say Pascal on points but I'm with sugar, I have a feeling they are going to rob Pascal.
