Jean Pascal - Lucian Bute, fight discussion thread and picks

[La Cucaracha]

Pascal if Bute doesn't end it early with a body shot I see Pascal being aggressive enough to get the decision

[Master]

Pascal looks in great shape, but what was with the black tape over his mouth at the weigh in?

Not sure about the tape. Maybe that he'll do his talking in the ring. Maybe he's been censored by the promoters? Roy Jones Jr. will be working pascals corner for this one, if that means anything.

I hope it means Roy is considering retiring from the ring. I would be inspired if he was in my corner. Has Roy ever done that for any other fighter.

I started a thread after the Froch fight. The title was is Bute damage goods? We're going to find out tonight. He's damn sure good enough but is he tough enough? That is what cost him his fight with Froch. Froch is hard as nails. Bute couldn't overcome that. I see Pascal jumping on Bute early. To find out just how tough he is. If Bute can keep his cool a counter Pascal is dead. If Bute is damage goods then he's fighting the wrong man.

I keep flip flopping. I hate it when two faves fight. Bute looks like his quiet confident self again. Butes best punch has always been the outside uppercut catching people coming in and Pascal has always been susceptible for an uppercut. I still think Pascal but I'm not as sure as I was. Pascal looks ripped.
I have not been this excited about an all Canuck showdown since Hilton/Ouellet or Hart/Furlano 3.

I'll pick Bute. I hope his chin holds up.

Froch beat both theseguys.
Froch has a hard run to the top and apart from the two andres he has always found a way.

In regards to this fight between pascal and bute what happens to the winner and the looser in the aftermath..whats lined up next?

Loser could fight Kessler.

Winner would likely be another big canadian fight with stevenson.

That's the way I see it. The winner will fight Stevenson for a fat payday. I don't see the loser fighting Kessler who would be a very hard fight for these two.

[Violent Demise]

This fight is starting to turn into a sparring match type fight. Hopefully Alvarez turns it up and ends this
