    To be honest is not that bad of a strategy, Bute always starts slow because he needs to find the range and timing learn his opponents angles and pattern of movements. So to be chaotic from the start would make it harder to learn Froch rhythm time him and counter him easier later.

    Nah, he was giving fans a chance to play him at poker on this "888 Poker" site, through his Tweeter account I believe.

    If Bute loses this fight, I'll impose a ban on myself for 6 months. No posting, no alters.

    Bute is more fluid, hits harder, and has better hand and footspeed.

    Everyone forgets Bute fights with his hands down, he is there for the taking too.
    This is going to be a war, think froch is going to upset the apple cart..

    I think Bute wins.

    I would love to see Carl Froch winning as the guy has fought the best available opposition and has travelled all over the place to do so. If only all fighters did this Boxing would be so much better as a sport.

    Credit to Bute for coming over and hopefully this is the start of a roadshow for him fighting Kessler, Ward, Dawson, Hopkins etc.

    Froch taking on Bute straight after the S6 Final defeat to Ward really is a statement and a godsend to the fans of the sport. I salute you Carl!

    War Cobra!! :ibutt

    They robbed the matrix in nottingham... But i now beleive froch is a much improved fighter from then... Well maybe not much improved...lbut definately better and has more experiance against higher level fighters.

    It will be close... Froch will get the decision if its close.
