I don't understand why Jean Pascal talks down on Bute and INTERBOX like that... I really like Jean but I hate it when he says things that help people not like him. INTERBOX are the ones that gave him a chance to be a champ without even fighting anyone else before getting his shot for the belt. It's always weird to **** on people that gave you an opportunity !! The fight is a certainty down the road !! It's just Pascal's stye to **** talk but as long as he can back it up, he'll be alright. On the other hand, I'm part of the people that think there's a very high probability that Chad Dawson beats Pascal in a rematch...therefore he might eventually need INTERBOX again more than he can imagine !!! He should watch what he says...
Pascal just wants the fight. Interbox are not ready, and therefore he is frustrated. It's normal. It's not him that brought up Bute, it's the guy doing the interview.
Always the same old crap from GYM, Mr. Michel and Pascal. I hope Hopkins shut him out, it will be fun to see his big mouth after that.
All he said is that by the time Bute wants the fight, he will probably be a cruiserweight. What's so insulting about that? He didn't say Bute was scared or anything. lol everyone loves to hate Pascal. When a Quebecois says he wants Hopkins to beat a guy from Quebec, that's really sad!
Why do they want Bute so much ? They want big money right now !! It's the same reason that GYM desperately wanted Otis Grant to fight Eric Lucas back in the day. Otis was all over the place asking for a Lucas fight. They wanted the money Lucas could generate. The difference with Grant and Pascal is that Pascal is a natural trash talker and he'll do it whether it's for Bute or anyone else... I think it has more to do with GYM again, than Pascal wanting Bute that bad...
Common PHILLA...you gotta read between the lines when he says he'll be at cruiserweight when... It's a diss..lol I like him how he is but you can understand why others don't.
Pascal wants to fight Bute they are the two best fighters in the country and only 7 pounds apart (which is nothing when you consider that MW to SMW is 8lbs) I don't see anything wrong with Pascal wanting to fight a good fighter like Bute! I think the fight should happen now since they are both champions in their primes. Bute wants to stay at 168 to fight the winner of the super 6 but whats the difference if he fights the winner at 168 or 175, it's the easiest division jump in all of boxing. All these super6 guys will move up to 175 soon enough if the money is there. the difference between SMW and LHW is the same as JrWW and WW.
Sometime in boxing I'm a bigger fan of short term gain for longterm loss....in other words **** these guys and there ability to make money fighting other people...I want them to fight now.
You're one to talk! Weren't you the one who would support Ward against Bute in Montreal? I LOVE to LOVE Pascal. If he fought Bute, I wouldn't automatically support Bute. Not any more. Might even support Pascal against him. I'll see how I feel at the time. And Pascal is right. The Bute fight will never happen.
