    Remove 'ly' from 'poorly' and you have Pascal.

    I think he may prove to be OK, if a little green at the moment.

    I do find it strange that so many swing off of his sack when the performance he is lauded for most was a loss :huh

    "I watched the guy with the tattoo's (Mikkel

    ) when I was in Las Vegas in April, and he's ordinary."

    "He can't fight going back or counter punch."


    "If you consciously know range and angles you shouldn't have a problem with this guy."

    A couple of the names might not be up to much but Andrade, Beyer, Lucas, Mundine, Siaca and Green were all decent enough and were all dominated.

    Kessler needs to sort out his future fights no doubt.

    Kessler is for real, but he needs a promoter.

    Decebel is a Bute fanboy. Bute should have lost to a guy that Kessler embarrassed. Decebel is just a cry baby on these forums even though he can be very knowlegdeable at times, just not when the 168 division is the subject.

    The reason people say he's so great is that he had a close fight with Calzaghe. Before the Calzaghe fight he wasn't supposed to be good enough to fight Joe according to some of Joe's fans.

    Anyone proclaiming that Carl's career is putting Joe's in perspective is ignoring how awful his opposition was before he fought Pascal. He looked average against Pascal and looked woeful against Taylor too.

    Yeah Jeff.....

    But records are all that counts.

    After all, Ricky Hatton beating 44-2 Dennis Holbaek Pedersen is a better win than 19-5 Jon Thaxton :nut

    Always an excuse for Froch, isn't there? People have lost all persepctive over the guy for beating an unproven Pascal and a seriously diminished Taylor - who wasn't much good in the first place.
