I see my man BUTT is as ready for this fight as we all are... Getting an early jump on the RBR discussion thread! Looking forward to seeing Frampton in the co-main as well.
I don't want Bute to lose cause his legion of haters would have a field day (regardless of how the fight went) I don't want Froch to lose badly either, cause he makes for fun fights and another big loss right now would hurt pretty bad. Carl is mad ballsy taking on Bute first fight out of the tourney. He could have "warmed back up" on a scrub and nobody would have cared.
But Lucian is prolly gonna bust that ass :yep I see Carl's chances lying in a hope that Bute gasses out late.
Will not the "soccer crowd" show up? I have wondered how Bute will like the drums and horns and singing AND Rachel
Oh yeah, Nottingham Forrest hooligans will be there. . . Haha you didn't hear about Bute's "simulation" of the crowd during training camp? He was blaring the crowd chants, Rachel, etc. via speakers.
Being honest, no I didn't hear that yet. For a fight of this magnitude (meaning this is a got damn MONSTER), I am shamefully behind on the inside stuff. HBO and Showtime should also be shamed. Also how long has Bute been over? To get acclimated to everything, time, is there major altitude differences in Nottingham and Montreal?
Carl is certainly gonna look much better than against Ward in the first 3 rounds. He'll be more motivated knowing this is kind of his late chance at claiming to remain in top3 SMW and Bute is not that kind of spoiler like Ward to tap and hold.
Im not sure on when he came over. . . There is a 5 hour difference, so nothing too crucial, but definitely something you would want to account for. . .
