    Ahahahaha, your struggle with life is pure comedy. We don't give a **** that you're not impressed with Bute. But don't mind us. Keep up the pace, 'cos you're doing great. You're a great entertainer.

    No way Ward-Kessler II takes place in Vegas. The only place this fight is economically feasible is in Denmark.






    Regarding common opponents for Froch and Bute: how did they do against Tatevosyan?

    Interesting , sadly as much as I am a Froch fan , his best days are gone now and the way to beat him has been shown more than once too.

    No way Bute stops him but unless Carl catches him with something big Bute walks away wiht a points win

    As soon as someone fights Bute his days are gone. When was Froch at his best? When he lost to Kessler? When he beat Glen?

    Christ on a bike you Bute bum boys are a ****in nightmare

    No , your right middleweights always peak in their mid thirties !?!?! FFS ( Perhaps you'd like to tell me a couple that did ? )

    Carl at his best ? Probs against Pascal back in 2008 !


    I also said the way to beat Carl has been shown to clearly now but you chose to ignore that and as usual you bloody children feel the need to jump to Butes defence.

    Taylor and Direll showed it , even Kessler saw it and adjusted to fight that way. Carl waits too long for the right and cant deal well with speed. Thats why Bute will win. Even at his best it would have been a tough night for Froch

    but ....

    You still want to see a nearly 35 year old Froch as a " peak " fighter ?

    Taylor showed it, I agree. But I've never seen Froch as a master of defence so it could have been anyone with good offensive. There was no need for a pattern. If you think that Ward beat Froch mainly because he saw how others were about to do it it wouldn't be fair to Ward. Froch could have gone in that fight unbeaten and he would still got a defeat.
    You ca see you future adversarie's weaknesses even if you're wathing a fight that he won.

    But the most important thing here is that you don't have to be the first to beat a guy so that your victory counts as a great one.

    The fact that Froch can't deal good with speed was obvious since his first pro fight, no need to fight Dirrell to see that.

    I consider his peak at the Dirrell, Kessler fights.

    Bute vs Froch should be a hell of a fight. Froch is strong and will putt on a lot of pressure on Bute. Somethings he didn't liked vs. lesser opponents like Andrade and Magee. Froch pushing forwards for 12 rounds......?

    Btw....Frochs lines up of opponents will be second to none......!!!!

    Tatevosyan had like 2 weeks short notice to train for Froch and more than a month for Bute.

    In the first fight Kessler was the Champion Ward the prospect, back the when they fought in US it was economically feasible ?

    I have no problem with people saying Froch is past his prime. From your initial post I thought you implied that his peak was against Ward and he is now somehow damaged goods. Sorry if I judged you.
    IMO Froch is as great as an opponent for Bute as it was for Ward. Of course, most agree with me before the fight. But after the fight Froch might have been shot to pieces.
