Hey, you're back. You are a naive person if you think that boxers are clean. You would look stupid, being a hater AND a candid person, wouldn't you? If Pascal show up next week with a super stamina, that won't be because of his hard work. He's worked hard before and still had a bad stamina. He also trained in high altitude and still had a bad stamina. The only thing that changed in his preparation is his work with Heredia. I didn't have any excuses when Bute lost. I took my time and wrote a very hard post on him. I can be honest. You can't.
You're here planting excuses, hush.. be gone already! We're tired of your excuses, and don't you worry, Pascal will knock him out early. :smoke
MrTragic - Get your childish trash out of here! You hardly ever contribute a good post on topics that relate to Bute.
Ok, enough time wasted with that troll, let's talk of the fight. Pascal still has 2 pounds to lose for tomorrow (the 7 days weigh in) and is happy with that situation. Does someone know how much he usually weighs at this point? That means he'll have 10 more pounds to lose until next Friday.
I'm going to lean towards the Bootyman in this one. I still think he's got the stuff. If he loses here, he's done for sure though.
IF (and it's a big if) Bute can survive the first four rounds, he could make things interesting. Pascal is known to fade terribly down the stretch (although Bute has shown signs of it as well, but more understandably against a pressure fighter like Andrade).
He weighed 181lbs 7 days before the Hopkins weigh in. How much does he weigh now? The 7 day weigh in should be taking place in a few hours I take it?
Pascal stamina problems appeared in every big fight he had in his career, it's unlikely it will be fixed just now. But he can make it well until the 12th if Bute pace is slow as his, so watch for that to, just in case it happens before blaming anyone. But thinking what he did to Hopkins at a press conference I guess he deserves to be blamed for no reason as well.
Froch showed how to beat Bute, Grachev tried the same but he was not Froch and I think Pascal will try this also from the very first second of the fight even if he said that this is B plan. Dirrell and Ward showed how a boxer could beat Froch (OK, Dirrell lost but...). Anyway in this very moment from all the SMW and LW in the world (presuming they will fight Bute next week) I think that only Ward and Hopkins are the only boxers not trying to finish Bute from the first rounds. I hope Bute wins otherwise his career is over. Pascal career wouldn't be over even if he loose to Bute.
