    Sorry Drozzy,I don't Twit...erm.Tweet!
    I'm afraid any freetime I get to go online is usually spent here.
    I'm a dinosaur mate.For reasons I'd prefer not to go into I didn't use the internet till 2006.
    Twitting or tweeting or whatever is for normal people.Until a few months ago I'd have been deeply offended if you suggested I poke a bloke.:patsch

    1. Froch declined $1M to fight Bute in Montreal? EDDIE HEARN NEEDS TO CONFIRM THIS.

    2. Bute doesn't want to fight Stevenson, would rather face the top dogs.

    3. Despite Bute coming out to say he'd fight Ward in Oakland, Goosen did not contact Interbox with an offer.


    FML this **** needs to get translated on the Scene, the boxing world needs to be talking about Bute if he indeed is being avoided. Again I'm not saying he is, just want the other parties to comment.

    Hearn/Froch need to speak up, like.. now. Bédard is meeting with Showtime tomorrow to possibly discuss Ward vs Bute.

    In my country we've known for a long time not to believe every thing you read.There are constantly incidents of foreign players(football) going back home,giving interviews where they badmouth their manager or team mates then come home and say the interview never happened.
    Why do Bute fans take every single word Bute or Interbox are reported to have said as gospel?
    I wouldn't trust Eddie Hearn with my password for Blockbuster.
    I rather doubt Lucien is going to come out and say:"We made an offer,Froch is a greedy ******* and seems to think he's the main attraction.That WILL be ****in right.
    Look,this is boxing.We're both peacocks.No **** is backing down but it's early days.We can't sort TV because of those degenerates at Showtime.
    I want it.Froch wants it.Our fans want it but keep it real.How would it look if Froch says 'I want 65%" and I say 'OK mate,take 70!'
    Not very ****in good.Would you concur?
    Keep your ****ing wigs on guys.We're doing our best.Can't make out to the fans that I'm just as greedy and egotistic as Froch now,can I?"

    I've said before and I'll say again;I've no doubt Bute wants tough fights.I've lots of doubts that Interbox are as keen.I've never seen fans so devoted to a fighter's PROMOTERS! Keep a modicum of realism guys.Promoters are professional bullshitters.

    Romanian:

    Carl Froch nu mai e de actualitate?
    Eu mi-l doresc, dar el după ce a făcut tam-tam prin presă că mă bate şi că e cel mai bun din lume s-a dat la fund. I-am făcut ofertă concretă, să vină la Montreal, pe o bursă de un milion de dolari, dar a refuzat. Atunci, i-am transmis să-mi facă el o ofertă şi merg eu în Anglia să boxez la el acasă. Dar n-am primit nimic. Eu mai sper să se facă meciul acesta.



    English:

    Is Carl Froch not up for it anymore?
    I want him. But after he made a big fuss in the press that he beats me and that he is the best in the world now lays low. I made him concrete offer, to come to Montreal,on a one million dollars purse but he refused.Then, I told him to make an offer and I'll go to England to fight him on his home turf. But I received nothing. I'm still hoping that this fight will still happen.

    This is from Bute's mouth and I don't have a precedent where I found that he has ever lied before. Anyway what Bute says here could be denied by Froch and Hearn if it is not true, that's the fun of making it public.

    PTF you sound confused mate. Where did I appear to treat it as gospel? FFS I just want Team Froch to speak up.

    Besides, it's Bute himself -a known gentleman- saying this. It's cool if you doubt the fact that the interview happened, I left something with Interbox for them to confirm. We should have an answer tomorrow.

    Froch already lost all the big fights he had.Loosing to Bute will probably end his career but will earn him a #1 spot in bgirl rankings..cause he faced the best out there :rofl...damn this board is pathetic

    Bingo. At the same time we'll see if Interbox says the interview was real (I remember you guys saying the Romanian press often goes over board).

    The sad thing is that Interbox and Bute has a history in not making negotiations or details of negotiations public. Them doing this means they are quite desperate and not a good sign, for his next fight.

    All i'm trying to point out Drozzy is that I don't believe for a minute they offered Froch a $1m offer with no option clause,just a straight walk away whatever happens deal because it rarely (if ever) happens.
    I'm not sticking up for Froch here.I just hear Khan saying every month "we've offered this one and that one fights and they're all scared."
    He makes no mention of paltry percentages,add ons and other various clauses.
    I very much doubt Froch would get a better offer than a straight $1m so I'm sceptical as to how simple the contract was.
    And if you tell me it was Bute who said it,I've got nothing bad whatsoever to say about the man's integrity or character but it won't convince me that it's necessarily so.
    And you should also know I never view Bute's fans as a single entity.:good

    drozzy you should sent this article to the scene(I know they have a Romanian translator) if you know their e-mail or twitter or anything else, so they will post it there and receive an reply from Hearn and Froch.
