    I agree 100%. He can't be tentative but thats easier said than done after what happened with Froch. I wouldn't let my fighter...especially one being brought back slowly...anywhere near bika. Way too loose of a cannon.

    Agreed with everything. Froch vs Bika would be the most awkwardbut great fight ever.

    And Bute is done there us a reason why he isn't looking for a rematch with Froch he knows it will be a repeat of the first. And Bika gave Bute a harder fight then most wanna remember. Probably his best win in retrospect and in a rematch I see Bika winning late.

    Essentially......when Bute beats Froch in the rematch, he'll be the first UNDISPUTED SMW CHAMPION OF THE WORLD since BHOP in 05.:happy

    might as well add another one to your thought...now that Froch isnt fighting Adonis Stevenson, the IBF has jumped on the bandwagon and created their version of the "interim" title :lol:

    Hopkins was undisputed at Middleweight. Don't you need the WBO for a proper unification.

    It would be weird being a WBC, WBA and IBF champ of a division yet still wouldn't be rated number 1.

    bute already won every round with ease vs Bika, beat him worse than anyone has ever beaten Bika but truth is Bute is not the same fighter he once was. froch ruined him, Bika just might KO him

    Indeed , it all depends of Bute's level of confidence. Bika is a dirty-tough mofo .

    Against Grachev Bute looked very "vulnerable" , excepting the last round , of course.

    Its funny how people say Calzaghe never fought anyone, yet theres a thread here calling it all good fights and fighters, and Bika and Kessler are Calzaghe victims
