    After that sad performance against Brian Norman, it is clear that Pascal needs to clean up his act. Although his style might be an imitation of Roy Jones, he looked more like Zab Judah last night. Fighting only when he was in the mood, and getting hit for no apparent reason. Typical Zab Judah. Just imagine if that had been Edison Miranda instead of Brian Norman? :roll:

    I was looking for this fight last night.

    He's pretty good and he's fast. A very entertaining fighter - but if he's going to fight Miranda - he'll have to step his game up. He cant play around with Miranda if he wants and get his head knocked off - then there goes that perfect record of his.

    Jean Pascal is a very talented boxer, and he could go a long way in boxing. But like Zab Judah his problems go deeper than lack of experience.

    I wouldnt put him in the same sentence with either Roy or Zab.

    Promising though, not sure he will get past Miranda.

    Last night he certainly wouldn't have gotten past Miranda and he very nearly didn't get by Brian Norman. It is one thing to imitate Roy Jones's style, but Jones was always careful to avoid getting hit. There isn't a hope in hell that Norman would have hit Jones so frequently and so easily.

    I don't think he was hurt at all. In my opinion, he is talented but not even close to jones, not as fast. I think is problem is that he tinks he is so good that he thinks nobody can hurt him and he can take some time off on the ropes.

    Pascal dominated Norman. Won 8 rounds to 2 and had him eating flush shots all night long.

    Norman came in extremely well prepared and in top shape yesterday. Pascal beat him with ease.

    What i don't get is you always talking sh!t about boxers from Quebec. I just don't get why... Diaconu, Bute, Pascal ect....

    I guess you are just fuc**ed up. We all know Pascal aint no Roy Jones you don't need to make a fu*king thread about it.

    And also, It is hard to compare Miranda to Norman because they have completly opposite styles. Norman is a slick guy that throw many fast punches in a round while Miranda throws way less punches but all of them are very heavy.

    Norman= Slick boxer
    Miranda= Power Puncher

    I dont think Pascal will ever have a chance Bute, in my eyes hes a real good fighter but limited in what he does.

    He's worse than Zab Judah. I never liked him and always thought he was very weak mentally and wasn't tough. I can't wait to see him vs Miranda, a guy with limited skills but great toughness and good power.
