    Lot's of wild speculation and rumours. He's also wrong about the Bute fight being the only fight where he left his gloves on for the decision, he did the same for the Yusaf Mack fight, see link below. Clearly still has his gloves on when they read out the decision and the ref raised his arms.

    Maybe his gloves were loaded, maybe they were not. If this was common practice you'd assume someone sooner of later would of exposed it like with Margarito. All it takes it someone to say something at a press conference in front of the media. How many times have we heard about a disagreement about gloves or wraps before a fight?

    Bute I think didn't turn up against Froch, taking nothing away from Froch, I think he wins anyway, but it seemed to me Bute wasn't up for it 100%

    The poster of this has some kind of personal vendetta towards Froch, given he also created the bull**** video about froch and fixing fights. Personally, I would expect him to find a lawsuit impending.

    File a lawsuit and have everything out in the open? Froch files nothing

    Froch was about as motivated for that fight as he had ever been, every respected boxing publication and 'expert' had Froch past it, over the hill and in too deep against who was for many, the man at Supermiddle.

    Froch was in the best shape I could remember ever seeing him and at fortress Nottingham. Given how much Bute got hit, his face was relatively unmarked, he took practically every punch to the left side of his face. Froch was never exactly pillow fisted and Bute was very stationary during much of the fight - he would have had his face caved in with loaded gloves. Just some anti Froch, tin foil hatter provoking some click bait.
