Gambian boxer Badou Jack believes he won his weekend loss to friend Jean Pascal.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The two have been bosoms until they brokered a deal agreeing to fight in the ring with a belt on the line.<\/p>\n

Jack was coming from a unanimous lost to the undefeated Marcus Browne January this year in which he sustained a horrific cut that needed long stitches.<\/p>\n

The 36-year-old started off delivering a right-hander but as typical of his game, he slowed down a bit reading and enduring his opponent\u2019s blow impacts but recovered in the third round before getting knocked down mid-way.<\/p>\n

\u2018I thought I was winning, but maybe I\u2019m wrong. I would love a rematch. Of course, I feel I won the fight, but it is what it is. He\u2019s got a helluva chin, he\u2019s a tough warrior, and I want to thank him for the opportunity,\u2019 Jack, who represented Gambia in the 2008 Olympics, said.<\/p>\n

Jean was pronounced winner on split decision.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
