    I'm not comparing Taylor with Berrio. That doesn't change the fact Taylor was not a champion at SMW. Froch has the best win of the last 2 years in the SMW. He has not the 2 best wins. Anyway, both men are close to face eachother, I'm glad of that. They both have my respect.

    Then, what the hell are you doing here? Another fan of the man known as a ghost a.k.a Allan Green ?

    But if his inactivity continues, he won't be for long...

    I know, but Taylor would eat 3 Berrio's for breakfast.

    But I think he would lose to Andrade.

    Maybe. But with the Lacy style, i think he could win.

    Because what he showed in that fight is still enough to place him above the rest. Chalk the rest up to styles, but like I said, his inactivity will/should drop him soon.

    And let's be honest here. If Froch/Taylor 2 happens, do you really think Froch becomes the favorite based on what he did in the first fight? A desperation KO?

    Could be, but I think he has a good chance to get Bute late in the fight.

    I'm here to back Froch because he seems to be really trying to make things happen. Allan Green is another fighter that's trying to make things happen. Has Bute answered the challenge?

    They were trying to make the fight but then, Green went for Froch...And now, Green might be stuck with no fight for a belt.

    And yes, we can applaud Froch for looking for the big fight. But no, imo, I don't think he puts enough pressure to do the same thing Andrade did on Bute. Finally, Bute learned from his mistakes in the Andrade fight and I don't think he will make them again.

    You know, I never saw anybody really try to hurt Andrade with blows to the body. Maybe it's his weakness...:huh

    Stop rewriting history man. When Bute became a title holder. (October 07) JC was the man and Kessler the man trying to beat the man. Yeah, Mundine had the WBA regular title but I think we can all agree that Mundine has been irrelevant in this division for years. We also all know that there was no way Bute could ever get JC in the ring with him (except at gun point) and the opportunity to fight Kessler also never really came up. So actually, we can easily argue that it's the first time Bute has ever had the chance to unify his belt and it's looking like he'll take it...

    It's just sad that we can't see the fight live in the Bell Center...Still, Bute will make more money and return with two belts:good

    The atmosphere would be completely crazy but Bute cannot fight at home all the time. Bute-Kessler in Montreal next year?
