Great to hear his optimism. He could have layed the gloves after that one. He's a champ according to my standards. However, I seriously doubt he's gonna rematch Froch EVER. You'll hear him talk about it most of the time when he'll give interviews but he will never actually fight Carl again. ... No matter the reasons. I wish him all the good in the world and I'll watch his fights 'till he decides to call it a day. This guy hasn't changed one bit after the devastating loss. He is the same classy, humble and hard working guy he was when he reached Canada soil for the first time. It's rare you see this kind of behaviour at a person with the status he reached, not only in sports but in any other social class: politicians, pop-stars, you name it. This and his eye-pleasant style will keep me as a fan forever.
I hold in high esteem both Lucian Bute and Carl Froch; i think the rematch in Canada it's a matter of principle and money as it makes sense from both points of view. Both man will want to fight for different reasons : Lucian revenge, Carl low risk/reward.
Well done on a balanced post Orbete.Very well put.:good What do you feel the reasons are for no rematch? I suspect you may be right,but if he has a convincing comeback fight(Pavlik would be lovely) he might get back in the right headspace. He's in a hard spot.I don't think Froch would ever beat Ward,but he's in a different situation,because he has the respect of the whole of the boxing community.Bute is now going to have to face accusations of never being an "A list" fighter. Maybe the fact that he's so grounded and such a decent guy is what's working against him.Just too much of a normal guy.
Friend^ship is forever , it's too late for you , i already talk about you to all my family and they are looking forward to meet you :yep
Excellent two-post combination Hermit.:yep Didn't you used to have a foot firmly in the Bute camp? (No sarcasm,genuine query) Badlok,stop pretending that your sister doesn't already know me! I know when you mentioned me she lit up like a pinball machine.:hey:happy
Didn't plan out the 'two-post' combination. It just fell in my lap. I'm just having some fun. I think Bute will be back. In the end, his lack of quality opponents (which wasn't his fault) hurt him.
I see you haven't changed your avy yet. :hey You're a hardcore fan of Carl deep inside, ain't you ?? :hey
Mali :happy How you doing man :yep NeroN ?! :think Who's that ******, I don't know no NeroN. :hat PS : yes it was for nudity, a pic of Rachel and one of her friends. :hey
