I haven't seen enough of Pascal to know who will win this. Froch hits very hard and has a diamond chin. Because of this, he usually mixes it up but I do worry a slickster would steal the fight from him. This is a real test for both fighters and it will be good to see if one fighter or another dominates and makes a statement. No predictions here, just excited about a great fight and a new chapter in the division.
I feel that Froch is the pick in this one. It hate the arrogant ****, but he's probably got a bit more in his armoury than Pascal at this point. Froch UD.
The UK isn't too bad when it comes to close fights. Bradley got an SD, though he deserved a UD. All three judges must have been pissed though, because the scores were stupid. Bradley 116-112 Witter, having watched it three times.
This fight is nothing special since any of those guys deserve a shot a belt. Whoever wins this will only serve one of the top dogs who will have an easy day to unifie. The only hope I see in this, is that maybe, Pascal will finally show the boxing world he's a much better fighter than what he showed against Pittman. With his long period fighting with one arm, his right shoulder is supposed to be healty. If so, Pascal will be much more effective then he was in his last 3 or 4 fights. But even if he shows up healty, he has to focus more and act like a pro without running his often loud mouth. Froch hits hard, so Pascal has to be thight in defense, keep is hands high and use his speed to push Froch away from his face. All those points are unlikelly to be in line coming Decmber 6th, that's why I'm very hesitant to pick Pascal for the win since we found that he's not carrying the best beard around. Either way, this should end before the last bell. And now the new futur ex champ is...... coin toss....
I'm not overly familiar with corrupt judging in the UK, i.e. UK fighters getting the nod...? Any examples mate?
let just froch win,so Kessler can KO him... no,i really dont know who will win,for what i have watched,i might pick pascal...
Yeah,so are you rubbishing the boxing officials in the U.K? What happens here in this fight won`t be different anywhere else.Hatton got beat by Mayweather with Cortez intervening like an idiot.
froch's a big favourite at 3/10 with pascal at 12/5, and i'd agree with the bookies on this one. froch by ko before the 10th
I think it is a great fight to come because Pascal is faster but his chin is suspect. Froch hits hard but is so slow on his feet... I can see both boxers win. It seems Pascal's shoulder is ok, that's a good thing for him. He's been training alone, another good thing. But yesterday, on a press conference in Montreal, he said he doubt Froch has more power than him. I find this very scary. Jean has always overrated his own power. He thinks he's a killer but he's not. His power was good against lower opposition, it's only average against the elite. He can not rely on this against Froch, if he does he will be destroyed. I hope for him it's a game and that his gameplan is not to mix it up with Froch. A boxer has to know himself in order to chose the right strategy to follow. I think Pascal can win but only if he stays away of Froch. Make him move, it is his weakness.
Ahah, look at the guy he'll be facing this saturday to find someone with such arrogance. Pascal is going down in a fight he'll have a hard time recovering from.
Right, did you not see Hatton vs Bradley? How many robberies have their been of foreign fighters against Brits in the Uk recently?
I'm picking Froch by ko but that is a nice post you wrote there. Exactly what i think. Except that Pascal won't be able to do what he should do to win.
Oh no mate,according to Ocelot this is going to be a fixed fight as they`re all fixed fights in the UK.No bets on this one.
