    I dont think Bute stops Froch, I cant see anyone stopping Froch he struggles with good boxers but I think the timing of this fight makes it a another 50/50 for Froch.

    If think Froch has the beating of Bute, wear him down and stop him.

    I'm also surprised that Sho didn't take it up, but not so much HBO. Is it really in their interest? Bute has a Sho contract remember so long term HBO have little to gain by showing one of his fights. Also, with it being in England it would be on delay and i would image that viewing figures for tape delayed fights are far worse - what with the yanks preferring to watch a stream of the fight live...

    "Right now the news is, there isn't any news." said Froch

    "I want the fight 110% and so does my promoter Eddie Hearn. Also Lucian Bute has stated he want's the fight and is prepared to come to England to fight me.

    "Eddie is working hard to make it happen. They are all in talks and until Eddie rings I will just keep hitting the running track and beating the bags.

    "It looks very unlikely it will be May 5th as it's only about 8 weeks away or so and we're both in camp now. Well I know I am.

    "So therefore it's looking like the date will either be the 12th or the 26th as far as the availability of the venue goes.

    "Kessler is fighting Stieglitz, then we have Andre Ward who is only just getting back into it following his hand injury. So that leaves us two to tango in Nottingham."

    Carl Froch needs to on a tanning bed quickly.
