    Just watched the fight to refresh my memory.
    An outstanding contest with both guys going at it. The first few rounds were very close and hard to score with Pascal landing the overhand right at will, but was getting tagged a fair bit from Froch. I had it fairly even going into the second half of the fight.
    Pascal began to tire in the second half of the fight as Froch imo dominated it.
    Both guys showed a great chin, but imo Pascal was hurt more from Froch's shots. Froch's jab began to take over and he really made Pascal's right eye swell up alot.

    An overall brilliant fight.

    Very good win for Frock.

    I actually favoured Pascal going into the fight, and Frock proved me wrong.

    People act like Pascal is some total scrub it's crazy. He's a decent fighter.

    He also beat Dawson clearly, the guy that fuck knows why half the people on this forum seem to think is an elite fighter.

    It was one of those fights where you knew neither guy was going down.

    Froch is always fun to watch - he's a tough guy who always comes to fight.

    Froch is cool. Weird but cool. He'd better learn to roll a right hand though. Ouch.
