Does Froch deserve credit for fighting Bute, instead of a warm up fight?

    People continually give Bute credit for taking the fight in Froch's backyard, but what has froch done for the majority of the super six? He took fights in the USA and abroad. He lost the Super Six and has decided to take the fight with Bute instead of taking a soft fight so soon after a loss.

    Does Froch not deserve more credit for this? Is because Froch is British and people overseas don't want to give him the credit or what?

    Froch is stepping back down to European level by taking this fight.

    Are you stupid or something? Everyone gives Froch credit for his string of elite opposition. Bute is going to his backyard to give his title away and deserves credit for that. Believe it or not people can give credit to more than one person at a time.

    I think he should be slaughtered for not taking a challenging fight.
