    Surely you are not just picking with your hearts here, are you? Canadian boxing fans are pretty much the best on this forum, when it comes to analysis and objectivity. You never pick just because he's one of yours!

    So...I know you say Pascal has underperformed lately and that at his best he is really good, and that if he has recovered from his injury, he is dangerous too, etc...but apart from that...why do you think Pascal would beat Froch? (I'm not saying he won't either; how good is Froch anyway?? But Froch is seen by most people as the favourite!)

    Why do you think Pascal should be the one considered favourite against Froch?:good

    Because we know how good pascal is when he is 100 percent. The majority of you just have seen him with one arm.
    He is too explosive for Froch and if Froch try that poor Roy style, he is gonna get knocked out. Pascal hits harder than Kessler, and has good accuracy. Pascal will school him.

    Froch has a very good chin indeed. Pascal doesn't seem to have anything like the power required to take him out.

    You still haven't given me an analysis. Your argument is still: Pascal is very good when he is not injured and when he is 100% and that is enough to beat Froch...

    ...I'm looking for more than that...hence the reason why I started the thread!:good

    Both are more or less gun slingers, Froch has a much better chin.
    Pascall is really suspect, he looked chinny last time I saw him.

    Froch should beat him, and beat him good.

    Froch and Pascal are equally busier. They dont fight like calzaghe all the 3 minutes. Froch is gonna try to do his Roy Jones style, but it wont work vs a much faster fighter. Pascal is gonna beat him to the punch easily, 'cause this fight wont go inside, Pascal is a much better fighter from the range than Froch, and Froch let ofter his body open to body shot, and Pascal has a good arsenal of shot there. Pascal will do his thing, he is gonna explose with great combo to the body to the head, and will come out. He will beat Froch to the punch in every exchange:good

    Is it enough?

    Pascal is the one who tries to imitate Jones' style, not Froch.

    Pascal will beat him to the punch, but is he tough enough and is his chin good enough to take the pressure that Froch will put on him? Froch could take his punches and just walk through them, a bit like Andrade did with Bute, for example...but with less activity and more power...

    ...no...I want more...give me a proper analysis, please!:good

    I would give you a proper analysis, is French:good

    Pascal try a little to be Roy Jones, but Froch is the king trying to imitate Jones, look his recents fight.
    Pascal's chin is good enough to take the rare punch Froch will land, and Froch is not enough fast on his feet to maintain his pressure on Pascal

    Froch doesn't have the Andrade style. He doesn't walk through punches. Pascal has pretty fast hands and legs, so if he stays outside, Froch is not fast enough to catch him. That's how I can see Pascal winning. Go in, a bunch of combos, go out. I can also see him lose: he receives a big punch and falls. How is really Pascal's shoulder? Is he serious this time in his training? You may know Jean Pascal studied to become a policeman, so he was not completely dedicated to boxing for years. Some say he likes to party a little too much. If he is serious, if his shoulder is ok, if he has a good strategy for the fight, I think his speed and skills are enough to beat Froch. He has to stay away of the big one during all the fight though. So who will win? I don't know, because we don't have the answers to the questions I'm asking myself for months now.
