If Bute fights Andrade on the undecard of Marquez-Mayweather and he impresses on HBO, that would give great leverage afterwards in negociations with Froch, Kessler or any other Super Middle.... I think Froch will need to bring his ass to America for a better pay day and the chance to unify, so will Kessler !
Froch vs Bute in Montreal probably would have drawn close to 17 000 fans at the Bell Center... They should have had it there on SHOWTIME !
Bute wont ever fight a fellow belt holder. He is fighting Andrade, because Librado has earned the right to challenge for the title many believe he was robbed of last time. It's not about Bute deciding who he wants. I personally think it's the right direction to go for him, as he will prob beat Andrade. That way, when Froch calls Bute's bluff and goes over to Canada and knocks him out, there will not be any unfinished business between the Romanian and the Mexican.
Froch will get his ass handed to himself over 12 rounds and his poor skills will be exposed for good when Bute fights him !
:verysad A true boxing fans does not have to hate the others to prove his love for his champion. Froch is the one who didn't want to come to Montreal. I understand him, he just did it on Taylor's ground.
Exactly!!! Froch is nowhere near good enough to beat Bute on pts, maybe a knockout is possible, but chances are thin. Froch is in for a good ass beating. But BUTE VS ANDRADE is very very good, this will finally close the controversy, and I will be seated righ in front of the ring for this one, if its in Montréal. :bbb
I have to disagree with you there, mate. It's a stupid decision on Froch's part. Who else is out there at the moment at SM? Kessler won't be fighting any time soon. Froch wants to be a big draw in North America so he should fight there more often- Hatton did it and with considerable success. We always stay up here for fights late at night/ early in the morning so it makes no difference to us where he fights. The only difference is we can't get as many tickets if the fight is abroad. This is wank.
Froch can fight Green, Dirrell or Ward if he wants US recognition. But maybe he should have come here in Montreal. I wouldn't have complained.
That's what I mean- Bute's a big name all round. Froch said it himself that he wanted to become a big name all over the world. He's earned his right to compete in big fights now and when he could have had one against Bute he decides against it if it;s not over here- or at least it looks that way. Who knows what's happening. The Bute-Andrade rematch will still be a good watch, though.
Ohhh man, we have missed Cotto vs Margarito because it was in Las vegas instead of New York. I dont think your job give you enough money for a Las Vegas boxing trip... Maybe if we can make your bank account.........and my girlfriend........agreeing with this...ITS A GO!
