1st, only one person here mentioned Pavlik, and it wasn't me. 2nd, I mentioned historical facts about a recent fight, nothing more. 3rd, If you can wrap your little noobie pea brain around one more fact, I was a Zuniga fan long before I ever took Pavlik seriously.
1st. not a noobie, in fact i've been here longer than you..... 2nd. You bring up a recent fight to discredit Cloud, yet you just ignore the Glenn Johnson, and Clinton Woods fights in which Cloud was very good... You obviously have an agenda against Cloud..... 3rd. I'm still waiting for Martinez to leave the ring on a stretcher.
Cloud doesn't have stamina issues, his defense has improved greatly, he is a pressure fighter who commits to the body and has solid power. Cloud KO's Pascal after hurting him early when Pascal lunges inside and tries to hold.
Best fight that can be made at LHW, has war written all over it. I think Pascal might be too quick for Cloud and I think he hits harder. As someone said earlier, Pascal woulda blasted ZUniga outa there withing a few rounds not to mention Mack with his shaky chin woulda gotten bombed out early by Pascal as well.
Im having a hard time figuring out why do you dudes keep assuming what a fighter would have done to a fighter hes never faced, how many times have we seen a great or good fighter struggle with an opponent who they were expected to dominate, plenty and we will see plenty more....by the way pascal hasn't shown me **** to say he would definitely beat Cloud at all... I got cloud in that one....
So basically fans are itching to see this fight, have differing opinions on the ability of both guys, and the poll is split a ton of different ways. Sounds like a FotY contender to me.
Pascal hasn't been in with a monster like Cloud. Cloud would methodically break him down and knock him out around round 10
Though Cloud isnt known for his high workrate, he'll definitely outwork Pascal, lol Ive got Cloud by UD - Pascal's got a good chin and i think he'll keep himself out of trouble.
