Will Bute last the distance with Froch?

Lucian Bute · 11-18-2012, 04:18 PM

if they fight in March in Montreal, with a fair, neutral referee?

Can Bute last all 12?

captain · 11-18-2012, 04:26 PM

Why? Was the referee in Nottingham not fair?

Short answer, no

Tyler-Durden · 11-18-2012, 04:30 PM

No chance at all, hard to say it but if you take into account their first fight and their respective last fights, I really do not see Bute surviving 12 rounds let alone winning the fight.

But who knows.

Will Interbox even set the rematch?

MyName · 11-18-2012, 04:33 PM

Seeing the first fight and the subsequent fights I'd be very tempted to say no.

dendy · 11-18-2012, 04:34 PM

i doubt he will - i just think that froch is all wrong for him and will eventually catch him with something big. Froch hurts bute once and i believe it will be the beginning of the end.

Tyler-Durden · 11-18-2012, 04:39 PM

By fair and neutral referee, do you mean referees who make 1 minute long counts ?

Just joking.

DDDUUDDDEE · 11-18-2012, 04:39 PM

Nope. He may last a tad longer though.

Abdullah · 11-18-2012, 04:44 PM

No, I don't think so. I think he will last longer this time, but will probably be KO'd around the 8th round.

PityTheFool · 11-18-2012, 04:51 PM

If he got further than 9 or less than 5 I'd be surprised either way.
Froch will go all out though,and we've seen how that goes.
In fact,scratch that.It might be quicker this time.

Two Shakes · 11-18-2012, 04:56 PM

This fight will not happen.
Expect Bute and his people to announce injuries and/or problems making weight,before the fight ever gets off the ground.
Butes comments about the rematch,are nothing more than ego massaging and posturing after being embarrassed the first time.

Stilt Skinner? · 11-18-2012, 04:57 PM

saw nothing in the first fight to make me think that outcome would be any different a second time around.

p4pBute · 11-18-2012, 05:05 PM

Bute getting ripped way to much, I see him pulling not just an upset, but a wide margin UD, bute is a Great boxer, who took his first fight in many years out of the comfort of his backyard which he no question was pretty use too, I hope he learned something from that, I wouldn't mind him trying to get a match in vegas after beating froch later in the year. If you want to be world class boxer, you need to fight outside of your backyard.

Curtis Lowe · 11-18-2012, 05:08 PM

Bute does not seem to have the physical strength to hold off Froch. I see Froch stopping him again, with Bute maybe making it till the 8th round.
