    Zsolt Erdei versus Jean Pascal anyone?

    A dual world title fight, both weighing in at 175lbs then again under the Cruiserweight limit. What's the likelihood of this happening? Any takers?

    Erdei vacated his LHW titles.

    Interesting fight. I could see Erdei outboxing him early, but Pascal using his superior quickness and stamina to take over the fight late. Result would probably depend on whether the fight is in Germany or Canada, but could go either way.

    Pretty low. Erdei vacated the WBO belt he held since 2001 (?) when he stepped to to cruiserweight to claim the WBC title versus Giacobbe Fragomeni. Therefore I don't anticipate him returning to 175, or least not against a fighter as dangerous as Pascal. I think Erdei would be competitive certainly given Pascal can be hit, but Jean's improved of late and I fancy him to take a UD.

    I dont think the fight will happen now that Erdei has moved up, but if it did happen I think Erdei would win a close possibly split verdict

    Pascal could get this one in a close UD but i don't know much of Erdei exept his last fight! So i guess my prediction his far to be acurate!

    Entirely depend on what Erdei has left in the tank. It was said that Erdei fought with flu against Fragomeni, which makes sense giving that he first boxed Fragos ears off, and then started to stagger allover the place from round 6 on.

    If that is just Erdeis normal endurance, he is toast vs. a top guy. He wins the first 5 rounds hands down, then fades, and a capable boxer would knock him out. Erdeis class although is unquestionable, his technical skills are top notch.

    Erdei UD. But it won't happen as Erdei is too protected. A wasted talent, fighting once a year against mandatories.

    Erdei was not protected for nothing. Euro fraud like Inkin. Jean Pascal wide UD or KO.
