    I hope Froch can do it, but I sadly think Bute will win on points.

    Bute has much more power, better defense, better skills, etc., I think he will be the first to stop Froch....................

    Why not have the fight where there are more seats? Heard there are not enough seats...............

    Neither of the local football stadiums were available and I think Froch wanted to stay in his hometown rather than go to a bigger city. There are about 10,000 seats in the arena which should still make for a cracking atmosphere.

    So it's confirmed for epix in the US. Pity it's not gonna reach a massive audience there because a fight like this deserves it. Especially when you consider the **** showtime are showing that night.

    my wife just handed me two tickets for this fight on Sunday, I can't wait.

    I have only seen smaller card contests with C grade fighters... so this will be my first Big Fight.

    as much as I was a supporter of Froch, I haven't been overly impressed by his last few outings, he has become much too sloppy and somewhat inactive in output during the fights, So I think he is on borrowed time and I feel Bute will stop him!

    Bute vs Mendy has been seen by 4,5 millions ppl in Romania only. It will do better Tv audience than the Super Six Final for example. It will be viewed by Romanians, Canadians and British with maximum interest also Epix will show it to the US Market. It will be interesting to know the numbers generated In US on a far limited coverage tv station than HBO and Showtime like Epix.

    Viewing figures in the US will be miniscule for this afternoon fight.
