    Really beginning to think Froch is looking past Ward and that is a huge mistake. Guy cant seem to get Bute off his mind be careful what you wish for if thats his next fight after Ward win or lose.

    Well, Bute has replaced Calzaghe in Froch's head. That's not bad.
    :D

    as canadians we dont need to overcompensate, we speak with our actions, (a bit hard to do on the net). no need for trash talk as some desperatly need as to feel bigger. poor poor guy who needs that type of boost. you will always persieve canadians as cry babies but thats from the point of view of..... you know what u are...or do you....poor little man.

    all i could say is if its so easy why is nobody going for his belt?

    Canada ofc, Bute will never leave homesoil to fight a good opponent except perhaps Ward, considering Ward is even a worse hometown hero imo

    Because they know they HAVE to come to Canada and fight Bute's Homer ref.
    That said, let me state, I do consider Bute the best smw at the moment, I was a big fan up to the first Andrade fight. But that fight was a good piece of evidence that you don't just have to beat Bute (which would be hard enough in itself) you have to beat the crooked refs too, which is too much for anyone at smw at the mo.

    You can compare it a bit with the Sven Ottke era, noone had a living chance of beating him in Germany, even if they "beat" him :p

    Btw Bute isnt Canadian, he is at the best an "imported Canadian", but if you can't root for a guy unless he has the right citizenship then just call him canadian ;)

    USA. Bédard, Larouche & Bute all said they were going to the US in 2012 in order to up the international exposure.

    Your post makes zero sense btw. Bute sells 20+ K at the gate, Ward struggles to bring in 10K in Oakland.

    Money talks. Just ask GBP, in regards to Bute-Andrade II & Pascal-Hopkins II. :yep

    People say a lot of things, lets see if Bute boxes in USA next year (except against Ward perhaps or a nobody)

    Pascal is world class for sure. And even if Froch fought Pascal, since he didnt fought Bute yet, he cannot be sure.

    My 2 cents is that Froch trash talk Bute for a couple of months now to play in his head and have a sure big payday, whatever happens in the S6 final!

    While I think Froch wants to fight Bute in case of a defeat against Ward (with no belt and with Kessler wanting to fight the winner he have no better option). I think he will indeed take another path if he wins the S6, either a rematch with Ward if there was some drama in the first fight or to avenge his lost to Kessler who if the gossip are true is able to pay big bucks to fight the S6 winner.

    Back on topic, even if Haye did fight Klitschko, he talked **** before and then ran all night, so in effect when you asked "What kinda of ****** straight up admits that he won't fight someone (...)", the answer is Haye! lol

    Exactly,
    since in my view Bute is not an option for him if he wins, the way he prepare a Bute fight tells me that he think he will loose against Ward. It's a shame because I think he can pull the upset, but he doesnt seems like he think he can win this...

    Last time they talked (just before the S6 was announce) the fight was almost a signed deal and it was suppose to be in UK because of the £.

    But now with Showtime putting the money on the table, they might want this to happen in the states, or at least in a time zone that they can sell the fight. Plus, I think Froch now have a name in the USA and I think he said he might want to move there to fight on a more regular basis.

    We cannot say that this guy dont want to show them all, he'll fight almost everyone and proved that he have hearts and guts.

    edit: he is still talking **** outside the ring though!

    I'm a fan of both. I go to see both when they come in Quebec city.

    Bute beats Pascal every day of the week.
