When I see a boxer doing this I just think 'he must be getting paid chump change' for the fight.

Pascal looks very confident. I can't wait to watch this. Come on the cobra, lets set up some more big fights.

(for the first time with Froch though I sense some doubts and some of Gomez' comments above don't bode well)

If he walks around near his weight, it is only through being in the gym constantly, like Bernard. I am 212, but I'm probably about 12 lbs if not 15 over my best weight, but physically, I would look like a rake standing beside Froch.

If Froch had a few months out of the ring, he would be a 14 stoner at least, he has the frame of a big light heavyweight.

By Similar token, when I met Jonny Nelson, I was amazed at how huge he was, he had shoulders like a linebacker and hands like shovels and was my height and a much much bigger man.

Maybe it is that thing of not realising how big you are yourself, I know that when I stood next to froch I was confronted by his physical presence.

The motivation Froch will be getting for this will be like nothing else he's felt before. We could see the very best of Carl tomorrow. I'm optimistic (but still as nervous as hell, but it's a good nervous. The sort of butterflys you get when you know something special is about to happen).

I'll be there chambers should I be looking out for someone on the verge of a cardiac if Froch wins?

I hope we aren't childish enough in here to ban you should Pascal win

There's plenty more important shit going on in my life than boxing and so far I've managed to resist the temptation of committing Hari-Kiri

I won't be throwing any tantrums or stringing myself up, I'll be congratulating Pascal on what would have had to have been an awesome performance.

Firstly, although Pascal has campaigned at 168 for a lot of fights now, he looks a natural middleweight to me.

Secondly, have you seen any of his 3 last fights - and the records of the guys he has boxed?

Again - easy night for the Cobra. It's good that many see it is a challenge - because everyone will be impressed when Froch blows him away...
