Bute is playing Pascal's game. He looks shakey every time Pascal flurries and isn't pressing him when he's coasting.
I think he's just happy to land throwing so few punches. Pascal not really giving him too may opportunities to land a big left which he's obviously waiting on.
Pascal hasn't done anything great but he's throwing combinations whereas with Bute it's one at a time and too infrequent.
Pascal takes Roy's stance but seemingly has no left hook, which is sort of ironic. I'm not really seeing the same fight Lederman and HBO are. Pascal is winning the rounds hes winning more decisively but I still have it even.
British commentary has Pascal ahead but saying he should be doing more because he's the stronger guy. So what? He's winning. Unless he's thinking about entertainment value he shouldn't change a thing. Bute needs to make the changes.
Pascal either has Bute's number or Bute has checked out. He's getting wiped out now and it is only a matter of Pascal possibly closing the show.
No idea what the official scores are but Pascal has to be ahead. Bute needs to be more aggressive and stop hoping Pascal walks into a bomb.
He doesn't have Boot's number, he's just a better fighter. Boot is nothing at world level, Pascal is decent.
Then you simply don't know what you're watching. Pascal landed more punches in those rounds, and was more aggressive.
I don't think he did. Especially not in 5. Bute landed good clean punches and Pascals best moment were illegal punches in a tie up. 1 was nothing round. 3 was close.
1 was a nothing round yet you gave it to Boot? :: It was a nothing round in which Pascal did more, and landed a couple more shots.
