Au revoir, Jean-Thenistor Pascal - merci, bòn chans, et onè respè!

Good timing if true and he sticks it.

 

I don't have an opinion/pick on it, really.

 

If Pascal can still pull the trigger he'll pull the upset. Elbiali has shaky whiskers, look for a Pascal-Dawson type performance

 

I dont buy that.

You guys dont know Jean like we do.
He was always an attention seeker. He most probably saw that this fight is getting zero interest so he decided to spy things up.

If he wins no way he retires.

If he loses he'll get praised for his carrer, everyone will thank him for the good memories, etc, all this because he made this announcement.

If he didnt say he was gonna retire and lost in a fight that nobody cared about, it would've been sad, because thats like going out the back door.

At least now more people will care to watch his fight, and that was the plan folks.

 

I hope you dont get me wrong, I like Pascal, he's a warrior he deserves all the praise in the world even if he doesnt retire, just I'm skeptical that he retires after friday's fight. I think its a PR move, and Jean is a master at those lol, also it puts some extra pressure on the young and inexperiencend Egyptian
Honestly I think its better he'd retire in a hometown fight anyway, uncle Al could give him at least that.
But he has to beat this Elbiali guy first

 

this shouldn't be his last fight. a fight outside of Quebec? even if he losses the fight he could still rematch Bute and it would draw in Canada. I know most of the outside world wouldn't care about it but it would sell in quebec even at their washed up stages of their career. If this is it he had a pretty interesting career.

From his fights with Diaconu. Winning the Ring Belt at 175, seling out the bell centre vs Bute and who can forget that he was banging a big dicked tranny for a while.

 

He loves going in the back door with Trannies too.

 

So am I, I personally thought that Pascal beat Gonzalez and was confused with the HBO score cards as I had it the same as the three judges.

Pascal has lost to Kovalev twice and his awkwardness actually was effective at points in fight one. and I think Kovalevs win vs Pascal is one of the best wins by anyone in the top 5 at 175.
Pascal lost to Hopkins when Hopkins could still go.
Lost to froch in a great effort. Lost to Alvarez and had his moments.

Pascal is great at making rounds boring almost dead then he goes full out nuts late in the round and lands punches. (he even won 2 rounds on all 3 judges vs Kovalev using this in fight 1)

Unless this kid has good defence I think Pascal has this but I could be wrong haven't seen odds on it yet.

 

This could turn into a disaster on friday night. Everything is stack to make sure Pascal’s opponent make a name on him.

First, his promoter Tom Brown, who is working for Haymon and probably doesn’t give the proper respect to Pascal. He basically said to him that there was not hotel rooms available for him and his team on monday (probably a huge lie). Because of that, his promoter booked him a flight on wednesday morning at 6 am, which means he had to woke up at 2 am this morning. The flight got delayed and he took the 11am flight. At 3pm, he was at Philadelphia waiting for his flight for Miami. From what he said at 3pm, because of that, he doesn’t even know himself if he will be able to make the weight limit. Plus, from what I understood, taking a flight during the dehydratation part is not the best idea because of water retention. These conditions make no sense. Not for a world class fighter like Pascal. And all this for 25k...

With the money he made during his career, he should have book his flight and hotel by himself in my opinion. He fell into the trap made by that unprofessionnal promoter Tom Brown, which is a Haymon puppet. With all this happening, Pascal should have told Brown and Haymon to **** off TBH.
