Post Fight Analysis: Jean Pascal vs Lucian Bute: Pascal by UD


   Last Saturday night Jean Pascal(29-2-1(17 KO) won against Lucian Bute(31-2-0) by the unanimous decision but failed to impress. I can say that it was a one sided fight, but Pascal again fought only 30 sec. each round and all the other time he was just standing. Judges scored it 118-110, 117-111; 116-112 for Pascal. I believe the scoring was normal, because it was very poor performance from Bute who was too careful and too afraid to be hurt. Jean Pascal won the fight, but it is very hard to say what comes next for Pascal after this one. He is still very lazy fighter who have no ability and will to fight for all 12 rounds, and his fights are boring to watch.
 
   I mean from the first round Bute looked very nervous and unsure. He was moving too much attacking with just one jab at the time. And Pascal was just waiting for the second half of the round to throw his furies. And what was most important he was able to land some of  his punches clean. Lucian Bute was moving his head so much, but it didn't help him at all. He took those big right hands right to the face.

   I mean it was all the same picture for round 1 to 10. Jean Pascal was able to hurt Bute almost on every round and he had him on the ropes few times, but he just didn't go for a kill. Instead of that he went back to the center of the ring and was waiting for Bute to recover and continue the fight.

   Only on the11th and 12th rounds Bute went forward and tired Pascal took some major beating, but he recovered very fast and launched his own furies on Bute....
