Pascal needs a TKO. He ain't gonna win at the points.

Excellent recovery round from Pascal compared to the previous ones where he didn't throw any punches... like he got a second wind... Where the hell do both boxers take their energy from?

I don't disagree.
The Gatti vs Ward trilogy became legendary because both guys were careless offensive machines

Don't know what's the percentage but that flick jab from Froch landed at a high percentage tonight...

Every time you think Froch is ready to deliver the knockdown barrage, Pascal comes back with some counter punches..

It's KO or nothing for Pascal now. Though even tired, Froch's chin seems too much for him.

Not enough by Pascal to win in Europe.

I have to say something.....Pascal had too much energy in the end to not have given it a little more in the middle rounds.

Good fight. Had it 117-111 Froch
This may be what Pascal needed to bring his game to another level and drop the whole flashy attitude.
I wouldn't be against the idea of a rematch but except in Montreal next time.
Now on the the Habs and then DLH vs Manny

Froch won but I desagree with the judges cards, this fight was way closer..

Andrade-Froch or Bika-Froch would make for a great fight. Froch has the style to make Taylor look bad, but I don't think he's quite at the level to beat one of the top three in the division (Kessler-Bute-Taylor).

There the fight and then there's the scorecards with everything that's in it.....local.....favorite to win.....That's the scorecards for you.
But then, technically while both weren't that great defensively, I was dissapointed in Pascal's defense. He was suppose to be much better and he looked to me like the Pascal he was for a long time though offensively he looked much much better.
