Bute has been inactive for too long now and Froch ruined him. Bute was entertaining and pretty good, his style would have cause problem to Ward. But the six or so concussions he had against Froch took his soul away.
Bute speaks French and Romanian, very little English, but I think he understands most of it, not sure about SR's English tho.
He needs a trainer to push him, make him trow more punches and trow caution out the window in important moments of the fight.
yeah, I agree. There were a lot of moments in the Pascal fight that Pascal wasnt throwing and Bute was still defending. Not saying he was gonna win them rds, but a body shot here, a R hook there, and maybe, just maybe, he regains confidence in the 8th rather than the 10th and the end result is Bute TKO11 rather than Pascal UD.:think
[yt]vUDsShAGub4[/yt] He actually had Pascal almost counted out, the ref was looking at Pascal who wasn't trowing anything. So with a couple of those big shots if he just trows like crazy in there he might have gotten a British stoppage. I don't understand why he backs of at 0:05 0:15 0:23 he needed to put it all in, not many fighters manage to put themselves in the position to win a fight by TKO in Round12 after losing most of the rounds on points. So when it's so hard to get there why did he let that chace slip away. Look at the referee yelling at Pascal to trow back at 0:35, he was ready to wave it off, if Pascal didn't fire back.
