And why shouldn't we believe him? Whether you feel Bute should have fought Andrade or fought Froch the core fact of this is Bute priced himself out and Froch does not tell bull**** lies this much you all know Only a fool would believe a Bute Froch unification in Nottingham, UK vs Canada, would have brought in LESS than an Andrade rematch. 2 Belts too, a unification meaning better global exposure - its a no brainer. Bute's such a fraud. I hope Andrade knocks him the **** out I really do. Andrade worked him out as the fight wore on in their matchup so the signs are good. **** Bute even opted out of this SMW tournament (further strengthened by Froch mentioning Direll)....this guy....P4P he may be miles better than Valuev but like Valuev he's a cherry picking home fighting fraud and boxing will be all the better once he's been dethroned *if* he bothers to come out of his comfort zone that is!!!
:goodAgreed. As for Bute, it's very dissapointing that he would price him out of a fight that all of the fans wanted to see. Ah well, looks like fighting Direll is an indication that the SM tournament is due to kick off.
He didn't.Froch is talking **** like always. Froch couldn't set a date with the brit tv channel so therfore no money.He also said Bute ''would be getting a lot more than he is getting for Andrade'' which is a tremendous lie. About the SMW tournament Don Majesky(Bute's agent) said Showtime didn't even come with an offer to Bute's team. I see no one is mentioning how Froch turned Bute down in 07 instead fighting Tatevosyan.I will. Why nobody didn't say anything?Simple,Froch was a nobody then. Anyway the haters would have something bad to say even if he would fight Froch,Andrade or whoever. Froch will be soon destroyed as he's just a overrated punching bag.
If you started listening to fools, then maybe you would learn something. Andrade is Bute's mandatory, so Bute gets 70% of what was a competitive purse bid of over a million dollars. It's perfectly plausible that that is more than he would make from 50% of a unification fight against Froch.
Wow, if anyone is overrated it's Bute. That guy is a Fraud. His best win was a near death experience.
Well explain a little.How is he overrated?If anything he is underrated since the Andrade fight. A fraud he isn't nor was he ever close to death,that is just ******ed. Froch's best win is letting Taylor punch himself out.........on him.
Bute is an overrated paper champ who hides at the Bell Centre in Montreal. He finished his fight against Andrade neigh on in a coma, what a true champ. Froch finished his last fight punching Taylor into submission like a true champ. This was away from home and as the underdog. Bute will pull a Calzaghe before venturing out from Montreal at 35 years old to fight a couple of 40+ years old before retiring as a 'legend'.
he's just pulling for his countryman thats all.. bute is a good fighter but froch would handle him easily.
Both Bute nad Froch are paper champs just like 90% of ''worlde champs''.At least Bute beat a beltholder for it. Froch only fought Taylor in the US as it was a mandatory and he couldn't control negotiations. Where will Froch's next fight be?Ih yeah.....Nottingham.
In fact, it's 75%. Bute is having 900 000$ on a 1 200 000$ purse. To give him the same amount of money in a 50-50 fight, the purse would have to be 1 800 000$. Without British tv. Easy to talk. Show me the money.
cant blame him for backing his countryman... but when a few get behind froch or haye we are called nuthuggers... i agree bute is vastly overrated he is like a poor mans calzage..:yep im sure froch v bute will happen at sometime and i cant wait for that day.:hey
