    Its such an intriguing fight to me in the sense I sort of think their styles are both a bit wrong for each other. If I had more faith in Butes chin, recuperative ability I would take him to win this fight. I do think hes capable of outboxing Pascal.
    I don't think Pascal is that big of a puncher myself but I just haven't seen anything from Bute to suggest he can take a good shot, recovery from one and he does everything horribly wrong when hes buzzed. Maybe the weight could help him though like you said, I mean he was very gangly at super middle.

      Good point that Bute is terrible when he gets buzzed. I dont know if it is to late to learn how to tie up an opponent. Chances are that we will find that out tonight!

        It may be common in your ****sexual circles but it's rarely, if ever, used by most normal people.

            Saw the guy took pretty decent shots against Berrio and Bika but was "on a mission" at that time. I think motivation is his chin at some point, if that makes any sense.!

              Personally I think both guys are past their due by date...I'll watch tonight but only to see those French Canadian girls in bikini s dancing in cages. You don't see that every day. At least I don't.

                You need to be a useless idiot like ButtNelson to say Bute's chin is made of crystal. Dude has no clue.

                  Bute still wants the rematch with Froch.
                  Bute is stubborn.
                  We'll see.

                    It will be a good competitive fight and thats all that counts. Its propably do or die for both and im sure both will perform to their best.

                      That's a good sign. It means he at least wants to get back on that horse. If he won't go all "deer in the headlights" tonight I think he'll manage to get a UD.
