    Best Super Middle fight besides Ward-Bute.

    Would be tough for Eddie I would think. They make a lot of money off of Bute in Montreal don't they?

    Very good news. Is Bute due a voluntary first to keep Showtime happy too. It's public knowledge that they want an American opponent for Bute's next fight

    Froch will have to travel. But I don't think he'll mind that too much.

    Why? Matchroom could surely put in a competative offer to get Bute over here? Bute v Froch in Nottingham in May. They've talked about this for over a year. The big fight they wanted when the Super 6 was over

    Do you realise how big Bute is in Canada? He makes massive money. No way Eddie wins this one.

    No chance Bute fights Froch outside of Canada.

    It's a shame. Carl deserves a home fight and Bute needs to leave Canada.
    If he wants Ward he,ll have to. Ward won't leave the US!
    I appreciate it will be an expensive one, but Froch at the City Ground and on PPV ( I assume it would be if it was UK time friendly) would generate millions
