    Froch would stop him again or Bute would decimate Froch in revenge. I think its a fine line between Froch being very successful against Bute and coming unstuck rather quickly. I would rather have seen Bute move upto 175lbs to add muscle to his legs and to become a more sturdy fighter, He looked smaller than Froch in the ring which was quite a shock. Id take Frock by TKO8.

    No. Round one could've gone either way, but the second definitely belonged to Froch. And i've watched it a dozen or so times already.

    No. Nobody has come close to 'decimat(ing)' Froch. Bute tagged Froch with enough solid shots to illustrate that he wouldn't be able to blow Carl out of there. To land the volume of shots he requires to back Carl up and hurt him it would require him to trade. And we saw what happened to him everytime Carl landed a significant blow.

    No, the IBF has in their rules that a fighter who loses by KO cannot fight for the title for 6 months.

    So they have to wait.

    Bute will of course not allow Froch to take a too tough fight in between.. because if Froch loses the belt then Bute's option means jack ****..

    So Froch will look for an easy fight in between if he wants one.

    Nobody could "decimate" Froch, the guys chin is a block of concrete covered in steel wrapped in iron.

    Is that true?

    Froch could fight Groves in England in between. Good boxer with no power that would not threaten him.

    If Bute wins the rematch, it's on points, no way he stops Froch.

    I think a rematch is almost 50-50.

    I give a little advantage to Froch IF he comes fully fired up like last time...

    If he comes in sluggish like against Johnson... then I think Bute wins a close decision.

    What in the first fight gave you the idea this could be 50-50?
