Jean Pascal - Lucian Bute, fight discussion thread and picks

[ykdadamaja]

This is definitely a fight Bute can win if he boxes the entire 12 rounds... he has to move and box and pot shot Pascal. Carry this to a decision- a decision he can win.

Bute getting KOd Pascal looks in great shape.

No idea who wins or how good I expect this fight to be, they are both kind of wild cards right now. Neither has looked any good for well over a year or two, but Pascal hasn't had the same cobwebs to shake off, plus he has a chin to begin with. Question is whether he'll be throwing with intent himself, he did a lot of posturing and waiting around against that tomato can he fought last time out, if he tries to much of that I could see Bute winning just by being decent and boxing. Wouldn't surprise me to see Pascal blitz him either though

Bute is just the better fighter. He has the talent but does he have the heart? I've been going back and forth on this fight. I'm picking Bute because he can put punches together and that's the way he can beat Pascal. Still I wouldn't bet on it.
