    So see I didn't STFU but I did give up looking through posts no time for that but you mention Froch getting sparked by Bute and make Froch out to be nothing special in comparison and I think you even said Rachel was so mesmerized by Bute . But hey it happens Bute was doing well and Froch came in surprisingly fresher than I thought too.

    I think Bute's destruction at the hands of Froch has to be one of the most shocking moments for me in this sport, I was completely convinved he'd school Froch as well and then THAT happened, it was just awful... :lol:

    Yea I was shocked but I have been on more than 1 occasion with Froch. He can look mediocre like the Groves 1 or Ward fights BUT he can also look like a complete beast like in the Bute and Pascal fights. **** we even saw him outbox Abraham and AA couldn't catch him THAT was shocking someone slower than Froch.

    I guess we have different definitions of getting sparked... Froch being stopped on his feet after taking numerous uppercuts to his mid section isn't what I'd call 'sparked', but oh well.

    Don't you think the Rachel comment was made tongue in cheek? Come on. :yep

    However I've never assessed Froch as a "no talent caveman" which you said I did... just ask the Froch fans from that time, PTF & SJS. We were at it in every thread, I had -and still have loads of- respect for Froch.

    No seriously in one of your posts you say he's guna get sparked BUT your comments on Froch weren't sooooo bad mostly it was in defense of your fighter as in you weren't going around so yea I do apologize. This thread was really funny though had to bring it back. Everything you said is nowhere near as bad as some of the newer posters on here. There was even an exodus to a new site from a lot of the older posters. But MVC is DEFINiTLEY Michigan Warrior if you remember him.

    I can't remember if it was OP, but some Canadian poster travelled over to Nottingham for the fight. He was so devastated by the result that he posted saying he had to take a break from the forum :lol:.

    I saw the ass kicking froch was going to give Bute coming from a Mike away. One of the easiest big fights to pick in quite awhile.

    Hey, work was spiking up too. AERE serials were bumped to 4 a year, had to bite down on the mouthguard and deliver a lot of op planning courses.

    At least you had the decency to keep the thread as it is and not edit and take things too seriously like 90% of the losers here.

    Regarding the fight, almost everyone had this fight 50/50. I personally thought it was 50/50 leading up to this fight. Even if I think(can't remember) I picked Froch, I promise you I wasn't confident at all.

    I wasn't so sure either sometimes I was like Froch no Bute the hype is blinding and from that day I now question a lot more especially guys like GGG.

    Less than 24 hours before Froch leaves the ring on a stretcher!
