I'm sure what Froch meant to say was that he knows Bute would school him badly. If Froch was just half as confident as he tries to sound, he would have accepted to fight Bute in the IBF eliminator fight. But I guess fighting Tatevosyan was more important.
"HOW refreshing to listen to a fighter give unstinting praise to a rival rather than subject him to a load of foul-mouthed abuse. Thankfully, Carl Froch is too intelligent and honest to indulge in such unsavoury rhetoric he regards as demeaning." :rofl http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/boxing/article412029.ece
i refuse to take anything Froch or his camp have tosay sereiously until he steps up His mouth definately writes cheques his ass can't cash.
