    Who wins this fight? Both guys suffer from spotty conditioning and very very flawed skillsets, but as far as watching material i reckon this might be a good fight. Who ya got ESB?

    Word, you don't think he might gas and get bombraped by a huge punch?

    Pascal chin is solid and he know to protect himself whens hes in trouble. Dont think he would loss via stoppage.

    Pascal by either, but I reckon the decision is more likely.

    Pascal has been known to gas, and I think he would box well, and Cloud would start to catch up to him by the end. I think, in typical Jean Pascal fashion, it will be a close fight. I'd love to see it, and think that it could go either way.

    Cloud UD. Outlasts Pascal and wears him down with his superior strength after probably losing a few early rounds.

    Rephrase the question: Can you imagine an overweight and war torn Zuniga going the distance with Pascal?

    Cloud did!

    Do you continue to keep mentioning Zuniga in hopes someone says something decent about him as a fighter, and you can bring up Kelly Pavlik's 9th round stoppage of him? I think you are.....

    As long as he doesn't sleepwalk, Cloud wins by KO.

    Pascal beats that ass real good. Cloud takes too many shots.

    :deal:deal:deal:deal:deal:deal

    Basically HBO would be real smart to match up the winners of Dawson-Hopkins and Cloud-Pascal

    It's always been my opinion that solid fighters do not fight "down to their level of opposition." Solid fighters take care of business as quickly and efficiently as possible.

    Nonsense. Plenty of all time great fighters have less than stellar showings against mediocre competition.
