    Yes, I do.

    The problem seems to be that Froch is not keen on travelling or taking risks (and yes I do know he has fought once in US), for instance I remember he called Kessler out some months back and wanted to fight him in Nottingham, I think it was. Then I have to ask, why do Froch think that Kessler should have to fight him in UK for Kesslers titles in a voluntary title defense?:patsch

    Some genuinely world class fighters won't be KO'ed even by a puncher like Froch...

    I think that fight has been cancelled???

    In the fight against Adamu didn't Froch go down? Or am I misinformed.

    Unless calzaghe slows down a full 50% that'll never happen

    I was out the country when that fight occured so just about the only one of Froch's fights I haven't seen on tv or live, but I'm 99% sure he hasn't been floored as a pro by anyone. The Adamu score was 116-113 and Froch didn't look at his best. In actual fact that was during a rather flat period for him where he wasn't looking especially good and many thought he'd found his level.He's had nine fights since, and in his last three he's looked devastating

    but look at the level he has been fighting at Dave...Dodson is hardly Lucian Bute.

    The Tatesovyan performance would have been better if it had not been for the ref...

    Froch needs a contender people recognise, Tatesovyan wasnt really a contender more of a guy contenders beat on there way up.

    Froch needs Inkin or even dare I say it Sakio Bika, Robin Ried is quite clearly a waste of time!

    Yep! He went down against Adamu!


    As for Forch vs Inkin I for my part would bet my money on Inkin as he is one of the best counterboxers out there.Inkin doesnt look good whenever he has to chase an opponent or meets a defensive minded foe inside a box ring,but whoever comes at him plays his game,and Inkin can play this kind of game quite well.

    So just for fun, who wins out of Mundine and Inkin? For some reason this fight intrigues me, although I doubt it'll ever happen (although Inkin is fighting for a WBA regional belt)

    Difficult pick,ko boxing! Could go either way! If forced I would probably bet my money on Inkin,but not much.

    As I know... there will be Bute against Berrio, and Diaconu against Dawson somewhere in September in Bucharest. This has not been confirmed... but it would be GREATTTTT - I will not miss Bute's 2nd fight in Romania for nothing.

    Now about a Bute - Froch match ... I can't go with anyone else but Bute... UD ... but could very easy go the other way if Froch throws just one big power shot when Lucian has the right hand down (like someone else said on this thread before); but if he improves his defense... nothing could go wrong.:happy

    Interbox are trying to arrange Bute v. Berrio and Dawson v. Diaconu at the National Stadium in Bucharest, according to Bute and Diaconu's own wish, to fight in front of their many Romanian fans in Romania as well. If they cannot find enough money there, they will happily arrange a massive show back home in Montreal...I'm sure there will be plenty of fans, Canadian, Romanian and Canadian-Romanian, not to mention Québécois (!!) going to watch them there too!:rasta

    Decebal... I can see you're a big Bute fan :good... so... just some questions:
    1. are you Romanian or something (the nickname made me ask this) ? :)
    2. do you know where I can see the bute-bika fight? I “watched” the match at the radio station (was not on TV in Romania) and nothing on Youtube and stuff... I'm dead in the water

    Thanks!
