This really comes down to Ward wanting to take a break for his own purposes as well as wanting to maximize the value of a Bute fight. It's not...
What did anyone see in the first fight to suggest a rematch is in order? Ward is about to fight the most difficult opponent of his career,...
I'm definitely concerned about Bute going forward. I thought that, even if he lost, he'd learn from the experience and benefit against his next...
I'm not criticizing your decision to troll, only your execution. This one will get some fish, but the other was better. All I'm saying.

Sure, but you get two fights versus one. Even if you discount Ward/Dawson on entertainment value, there's at least a reasonable chance that...
Just think about tonight. They air Froch/Bute and any subscriber who tunes in sees a spectacular, fairly quick knockout with a raucous crowd....
Showtime was a huge loser tonight. They gambled everything and placed a poor bet: 1) Bute had to beat Froch **AND** 2) Ward has to beat Dawson...
Froch takes this by decision in a good fight. Remember, Froch faced a desperate Kessler on his home turf and pushed him to the limit; I think...
You guys aren't covering yourselves in glory by grave-dancing. Froch was sensational and delivered a savage beating to Bute, who was gracious in...
Wow, what a beating! 1: Bute 10-9* 2: Froch 10-9 3. Froch 10-9 (borderline 10-8) 4. Froch 10-9 * close round LoL at the Epix guy...
