    Fair play to Froch, I hope he takes Bute and unifies the titles. He's got a big mouth but he's backing it up. The jury is still whether he has the skills to get to the top of the division but i wish him well.

    I'd rather see the Bute fight go ahead, more excitement to get get a unification bout.

    So either Bute or Hopkin will outbox Froch. It will be better for his carreer to get beat by a young and prime fighter, so he should go for Bute, unless he really want to be exposed like Pavlik...

    Yea...I don't give Froch much of a chance with nard either...but Nard has got to hit the wall at some point...The man is ancient! Lucian has a chance with is skills just like Taylor had a chance but Carl is tough as nails, confident and determined! That can be enough to beat the better technical fighter in Bute.

    Gotta give the man his due. Both opponents are tough tough hombres. I'm pulling for Bute vs Froch just to sort of clean up the SMW issue a bit.

    :lol::lol:

    Well with Kessler tied up in whatever sort of legal drama that's plaguing him, this fight is pretty much to determine who is the man at SMW.

    This is the 2nd or 3rd time you've said Froch is better than Pavlik. PROVE IT, or shut the **** up. Show us one single shred of evidence that Froch does even one thing better than Pavlik! You can't. Froch makes Pavlik look like Willie ****ing Pep!

    I think Froch gets beat by both guys.
    Best chance against Bute but still...
