    bodyheadic : Bute will get off to a headstart landing crisp combos and moving while thwarting Froch's awkward style. Will have to weather a late storm by Froch but will take a clear decision, if Nottingham allows it.

    Ward said it's 50/50 btw, but he roots for Bute.
    Later Bute said he favors Dawson against Ward but he want Ward to win.

    Bold predictions aside, I think we're gonna have a great second half of the first round... minute and a half to throw some jabs, then I'm sure they'll get right down to it.

    :bbb

    You going down. :smoke

    Didn't David Haye say something about this fight recently ? Me thinks ...

    EDit : oh nevermind, he picked Kessler to beat Green and then hoped Kessler & Froch would rematch. :hat it was on the scene.

    I only remember him saying something about wanting Kessler to win for the possibility of a Froch rematch.

    Yeah I confused it !

    I'm surprised they haven't asked Jean Pascal's opinion in Canada. :think

    They asked but Pascal reply was something like it's 50/50 and Froch is not the same guy he fought years ago... fading etc. making Bute slightly favorite even if he said something else prior to that. I'll try to search for the quote

    They did. He said Bute could win because he has the right tools for the job, but that it's going to be a huge challenge for him to fight in the FM arena, whatever all of that means from Pascal who actually compared the Froch he fought to the Froch Bute will fight on Saturday (basically saying the Froch from '08 was hungrier).

    " I have a tremendous respect for Carl Froch, who showed a great courage and determination in the "Super Six" tournament," said Pascal. "However, I think he is not anymore the fighter he was in 2008. These two years of war in the "Super Six" tournament were extremely demanding for his health. I don’t know how much is affected by this tournament. But Froch is fighting in front of his fans, and he will certainly give everything to win. The fight should be intense and spectacular."

    "I hope to see Bute win," (Pascal hopes to face him next year), "but I would not bet my house on that fight," said Pascal. Sincerely, I think the chances are 50-50. It is easier to predict a game between the Boston Bruins and the Montréal Canadiens this year..."
