    Bute, his team, and his fans are a credit to the sport.

    IDK how long you been a fightfan laffie, but Im since 77 when I was first allowed to join popsy, dad and all my uncles and cousins in the den.

    I watched my man Holmes get robbed vs Spinks, but I can't say Spinks is an ATG HW. I watched Holmes get KTFO and dominated similarly to Bute vs Tyson, but most, myself included still rate Holmes over Tyson. I watched Lewis get KTFO vs McCall and Rahman, and I watched Lewis comeback and dominate in the rematch. I watch WLADIMIR Klitschko take worse criticism than Bute ever has, and I watch him today as he cements his legacy as a top 5 ATG HW.

    You didn't overrate Bute. You overestimated the level of confidence he had in himself. He'll be back, and he'll be BETTER than ever.:deal

    Don't feel bad Laffie, you were one of the more reasonable Bute fans.

    He left England without his belt, but he left with my admiration and respect.
    He can rebound, its a long way back but Bute is a hard worker.

    I would not really want to see him against Froch or Kessler anytime soon, they might do irreversible damage to his career.

    Oh man.

    Right, so you're actually saying that the guys who picked Bute to absolutely school Froch on the way to stopping him wasn't over rating him? You're genuinely saying that Bute only lost this figh because he lacks confidence in himself?

    Bute will be alright.

    As long as he doesn't become a raging alcoholic, cover his body in tattoos, and make the news for crashing his 4-wheeler into a telephone pole he's got it made. :p

    Must've been a great time lad.

    That was a defining win for Froch, a rematch with Kessler in England should be next.

    Win/Lose/Draw, I think Froch should retire. English people should be proud of him.

    Big BUte fan here.

    It was shocking yes but this is what boxing is all about.

    I can't say I didn't get my moneys worth.


    No true fan should be ashamed when their fav loses.

    The shame is on those who brags, are arrogant or constantly disrespect other fighters.

    You're not the first fan to go through that. At least you acknowledge the better fighter on that night. *******s made excuses for their hero's loss to Morales. You should've heard some of the crap I had to hear when Morales kicked Pacquiaos ass.
