Comments Thread For: Pascal: I'm Still The Cash Cow at Light Heavyweight

[ProBox1]

Despite his inactivity over the last two years, and the rise of such champions like Sergey Kovalev and Adonis Stevenson, former WBC champion Jean Pascal (28-2-1, 17KOs) is confident that he's still the biggest name, in terms of money, at 175-pounds. Pascal will return on January 18th, when he faces Canadian rival Lucian Bute at the Bell Center in Montreal.

...Cash Cow?

If we disregard dumbass quotes like this for just a moment, 175 has become a truly red hot division in the space of less than a year. Remember how 2012 ended? Dawson, the #1 in the division getting trounced by Ward at 168, Cloud doing fuck-all, Hopkins still reeling from his loss to Dawson, Pascal being inactive, Bute getting destroyed at 168 and looking terrible in his first fight at 175...

Whereas now we have Kovalev, Stevenson, Pascal, Bute, Hopkins and possibly Ward all hungry for that next level of success. Any combination of those guys is a must-see fight. Can't forget about Dawson or Cloud, either - they aren't going away just yet. Meanwhile 168 has pretty much died. How things change!

What an airhead.

He is delusional. He just fought on 9/14 and there was NO one at the fight. He can't carry a fight by himself. The reason the fight in January will do good is because of 'BUTE' name. The reason those other fights of Pascal did good was because he fought "Hopkins" and "Dawson". If Pascal was the cash cow, he should be able to get those numbers when he fights anyone, but he doesn't. The cash cow at LH whether you like it or not is Hopkins. Stevenson and Kovalev no matter how much you like them cannot sell tickets yet. Why do you think every one of the HBO fighters says Hopkins name so they can get themselves press and they know that is the biggest payday out there in the LH.

There is no cash cow at light heavy weight

The first two rounds or so could be a danger zone if Pascal really brings it but by sticking to his boxing Bute can control the action and use that left uppercut of his to gradually break Jean down along the way. So long as the Froch scars aren't too deep, Bute could even look A-level again here.

Pretty much correct... And it's about selling tickets in the Quebec region...

I am told that, lately, Bute took judo and wrestling lessons! Which seems logical -- as long as Larouche was never capable to teach Lucian anything on inside boxing...
