I'd like to think we'll see the pre-Froch Bute, but I have my doubts. Not that it was all roses back then, but he did have a good streak going... albeit against mainly average fighters. If he lets himself get caught on the ropes though, it's pretty much Pascal's fight. Starting to lean toward Pascal, if he can keep his stamina up.

Fight would have been a close fight Pre Froch, but Pascal has power and Bute sans punch resistance so Jean has the edge. They can both box well enough to find the other, both have good power, but one can't take a shot well. Seems like the logical pick is Pascal. But this is boxing where the only sure bet is Mayweather wins, and Bute has a monster of an uppercut bahaha! So who know's *shrug*. If i have to pick, Pascal by stoppage but i don't have to pick so im'a watch the fight and hope for an early fight of the year candidate.

Bute is a confidence fighter. If he can hurt Pascal early, or take the centre of the ring, he'll win.

If Pascal fights smart, uses feints, keeps Bute guessing so he can't set up his left hand counters, he should win handily.

Both of these guys are waaaaaaaaaaaay overrated. My prediction is Paschal will fight dumb wild and reckless and get himself ko'd.

Froch smashed him and he didn't look great against Grachev
after that and the layoff, Bute is definitely vulnerable
but when has Pascal KO'd a fighter that mattered?
he's got sloppy offense and shit stamina himself
wouldn't be surprised if either guy got stopped here
wanna believe this will excite but it has potential to suck too
gonna go with Pascal by UD in this

And in order to illustrate more accurately Larouche's "capabilities", I just learned that, in the past months, Bute took judo and wrestling lessons (in Spain)!?!
Then there are ppl who have the audacity to make a Lucian Bute highlight reel. How dare they?

Pascal has been more active, I like him to win via UD.
