Jean Pascal What A Warrior.

[Nameless]

I really don't like the guy for his attitude and things he says. However, he did impress me and it is true that he did improve greatly. I don't know if it might be it but GYM (his promotor) did hire renown coach Pedro Diaz, the one who used to train the Cuban olympic team and he kinda of forced Jean PAscal to a much harder regime of life to prepare him physically, going notably into Columbia's highest mountains for the training camp. I think that this pairing with Marc Ramsey has been a very good thing for him and gave him the idea of the necessary sacrifices to win.

I don't think Jean Pascal should be rushed in with Chad Dawson, IMO he should develop a bit more. I think he'd box rings around Tavoris Cloud, i think that should be his next fight for certain, not only would he get a good win over a good upcoming American name. He would also add another title to his collection.

Then after that fight i would love to see him get a rematch vs Carl Froch, and i for certain think he takes Carl Froch in a rematch, then he should either fight Lucian Bute or Chad Dawson.

You Canadians should be proud, you got a very talented boxer in Jean Pascal that could go onto very good things. And i know Lucian Bute isn't technically Canadian, but he's been in Canada for years and considers himself a Canadian, so thats another fighter you can root for. Another fighter i think has what it takes to be the best at 168.

Yeah I agree, Dawson is a mean piece to eat and Tavoris would be a better choice for the moment, to give him more experience under the belt. As for Froch, I guess it will depend of what happens in the 6 men tournament but it would be interesting for him if Froch still has a belt. From what I've heard on Rds.ca, Bute is out of question as him and Pascal aren't fighting at the same weight class and his trainer, Marc Ramsay, did turn down any idea of Jean PAscal going down ever again as apparently, he did develop the kind of musculation which would make it impossible for him to get down in weight.
His raise is good for our boxing for sure but I really really dislike the guy, I will never root for him whatsoever (or almost) but his raise is definitely a good thing for us. Boxing here is in total raise, Bute sells 21-22 000 seaters no challenge in Montreal, Pascal-Diaconu did lure around 10-11 000 persons and we have a few interesting young ones coming slowly. Let's see how it pans out but boxing is very very healthy in Canada, especially in Quebec.
