Many contestants said that Bute fights only in Canada under the protection of the ref , judges and crowd and that he won't leave his confort area and fight on other territory. Now , this man will have a fight against a top SMW fighter ( Carl Froch ) in Nottingham which is Froch's hometown. That's a good exemple of G-ness ! He's the IBF champ & the biggest draw at his category and yet he will fight with Froch ( his mandatory ) in Nottingham.:yep After Bute will win this fight convincingly I wonder if Andre Ward will accept a fight against Bute in his backyard ( Oakland ) or still will ask Bute to fight with Andre Dirrell to prove himself P.S Bute was willing to fight Ward in Oakland after the s6 tournament over.:yep
indeed , with this fight Lucian shows to his haters the contrary , that is a warrior who's willing to travel&fight abroad.:yep Fighting in Froch's hometown isn't an easy task.
Bute could have stayed in Canada and had more easy fights against cans, but that's clearly not what he wants. Fair play for going to Froch's back yard and putting it on the line. Can't wait for the fight - I'm gonna have to go with Bute to win.
When Ward fought with Kessler in the s6 tournament , Ward fought for Kessler's WBA belt , right ? So , Kessler went to defend his title against Ward in Ward's hometown ? Ward should've fought at least once abroad in the s6 tourney !:yep
Lets say that Bute will win convincingly this fight against Froch by UD or by K.O/T.K.O and then he ( Bute ) will ask Ward to fight with him in Ward's hometown but Ward will say that he ( Bute ) must fight with Andre Dirrell ( Ward's friend ) to deserve a shot against him . This content is protected Should Bute fight with Andre Dirrell ( which's an unknown boxer and not a draw in u.s.a ) for a Ward fight or just move up at 175 pounds and fight with Pascal,Hopkins, Dawson ?
