As a Canadian, I'm thoroughly disappointed in Bute.

    I've been trying to find excuses for the Froch lost but watching him fight tonight, I can honestly say that he is nowhere near ready to take him on again. In Nottingham or in Montreal, he's lost 2-3 steps and his confidence seems to be at an all time low.

    I still cheer for him, but he definitely SHOULD NOT take the rematch from Froch just yet. Get 1 more fight or two then have a go at it.

    Yeah, Bute looked on Grachev's level tonight. Bad defence and his offence wasn't timed properly, outside of round 12. Bute ain't ready to even go a half fight with Froch. He will get KTFO.

    He can take a thousand fights, he won't beat Froch.

    I tuned in at the end and Bute's face looked pretty bad... I'll take your word.

    Grachev backed him to the ropes countless times, Froch will only need the one chance. Bute is done at the highest level.

    Well Bute is lucky he isn't Canadian, thus avoiding your disappointment.

    Dancing on the ropes without precision in offensive is futile

    Bute is a Canadian citizen....an immigrant, but a citizen nonetheless.

    12th round he seemed like his usual self. I'd like to see him in a couple more fights before the Froch fight happens.
