    On Magee vs Bute

    "Yeah it's really good for Brian and the Irish fans. I wish him the very best, I really do."

    "Lucian Bute has fought way too many bums at the Bell Centre for anyone to take him seriously and I think his team realise that it has all reached saturation point for them.

    "They were gonna fight Pavlik I think on HBO, then he went into rehab and so that fell apart for them. I think they realised they had to start fighting credible opponents - and basically the rest of the division was all already onboard at Showtime.

    "But yeah, as a person he seems a nice guy who says the right things. But as a fighter his body of work is non-existant. Never taken a risk, never left his comfort zone and basically never fought anybody.

    "I've fought Taylor, Pascal, Kessler, Dirrell, Abraham - whilst he has fought Brinkley, Joppy and Andrade. And he was lucky against Andrade in the first fight.

    "Anyone can look a million peso fighting the dross that his promoters have lined up for him.

    "Take Magee, I knocked him out 4 years ago and he is perhaps the best fighter Bute will have faced to date. I had a snapped thumb from round one onwards too"

    "Well if Bute is as good as everyone keeps saying then he should take apart and stop Magee. But I forecast that Magee potentially has the ability to give Lucian Bute a lot of aggro.

    "Magee needs to dictate his own terms, grab the fight by the scruff of the neck. He is experienced, can punch a bit and hasn't got a flashy record to protect. If he can pull the trigger and not get caught with a silly shot then he has everything to play for.

    "Maybe Lucian Bute is concentrating more on looking good for his big occaision on Showtime, than thinking about Magee.

    "I'd definitely crack open a Guinness if he did the business. It would be great for Irish boxing, definitely."

    On whether he would fight Bute

    "Is that a trick question? In a heartbeat. I'd fight him right after I've won the Super Six.

    "But the reality is that Mikkel Kessler is the deserving fighter in this whole equation and not the likes of Bute.

    "Bute has been sitting pretty in his Canadian comfort zone, whilst we all have career shortening wars in genuine fights. Bute has to get in line.

    "Me and Mikkel have round 13 to continue from where we left off. After I'd punched his face in, I thought 'he's finished now' - but he's adamant he's coming back, so big respect to him."

    At first I didnt like froch, thought he was a loudmouth guy that would easily get knocked out. however im a fan of him now, how can you not like this guy, he takes on anyone, despite his obvious flaws he has a great record, im definitely rooting for him to win the supersix, boxing needs more risk takers like him, it gets you a lot of credit.:good

    I honestly think Froch would fight Johnson, Ward, Kessler and then Bute without any sort of break or tune-up fight in between. He's an absolute warrior.

    Froch is just bullshitting cause no way McGee is than Bika, Andrade, Miranda, Zuniga, or Berrio

    Especially Bika and Andrade who are probably just as good at SMW as Taylor was. Bika actually gave a tougher fight to Ward than Kessler did.

    'After I punched his face in'?

    This is the same Froch who after the fight kept sniffling and blinking his eyes and who sounded as if his konk was totally blocked?

    I think Bute's a nice guy and normally don't have a bad thing to say about him, but Froch's right here. But whatever the case, Bute's level of competition should rise once the Super-Six has finished.

    I agree with a lot of what he said. Can't agree that Magee will be his best win though.

    Froch has balls and he foguht the best, but I think Bute has the exact style to beat him. Lets hope we see this fight in 2012.

    Froch is the anticalzaghe

    Not the most gifted but fight anyone , anywhere

    Can you imagine how Calzaghes career would have looked if it had to follow a path like Carls.

    you could help hide your ignorance if you even got his name right:lol:


    the version of Taylor froch fought was still a good fighter until he fought froch


    Guy goes on a run of fights that if replicated across the sport, would make boxing what it once was, offers a bita fighting talk about his a big divisional rival and some people try to **** on it

    well, haterz gona hate!
