I'm at Pascal's public training session. He looks in great shape. He wanted so much to get applauses that he was throwing t-shirts when people shouted. He plugged his sponsors, his personal website (where you can buy stuff). He was dressed with a yellow "full-face" suit, looking almost like a teletubby. I guess after having copied RJJ, he's now becoming a mini-mayweather. It was a bit gross.
You just can't change him. Hope people learn to live with him if he wins. It's not like he's evil.. just a bit oblivious.
So was Eric Lucas.. and a totally different approach. What people are disgusted with is his tendency to act the American way. All flashy and bling bling and little to no modesty (he calls it self-confidence).
Just by calling him The Brute shows me you have little to no understanding. Bute is smooth like a ballet dancer. Pascal is the brute.
I know. Even if I don't like that kind of character, I still had a smile on my face. On another note, Artur Beterbiev, who will also be on the card, hits very, very hard. Much harder than Bute, Pascal and Alvarez. I never saw Stevenson in a public training so I can't compare but Beterbiev is a killer. Seems to be a nice dude outside the ring.
