**Lucian Bute vs Carl Froch - Build Up Thread!**

I think thats abit unfair Froch lost to a ugly Ward that **** wasnt good to watch and i think Bute would struggle with that style, leaning with the head in the face plus Froch wasnt on his game that night.
Lets be honest Bute hasnt got the best record who has he fought, really. :think

Your basically calling Froch shite at world level then, which is bollocks. :huh

 

The closer it gets to the fight the more I'm thinking Froch is going to stop Bute late on,

WAR FROCH!

 

Nah, mate, don't believe in those excuses. Froch fought as well as he could ever have done against Ward. Learn to appreciate the sweet science! Ward is a master!

Froch is a solid B level fighter (world class). Bute, unless he's overrated, is, like Ward, B+ (top world class).

 

Amir Khan on ringside said Bute has fought some big names like Estrada, LOL who the f*** is Estrada?

 

Think he meant Miranda, he is such a mong.

 

Miranda?

 

Froch is certainly going to give Bute a very hard test. Froch was stopping the sort of opponents Bute's been stopping, it's a different game at the top level. I think Frochy can do this - it's going to be an awesome fight!!

 

You get different types of fighters mate, thats why this sport is so great.. No world level fighter especially Froch should be called a B level fighter he's a 2 time world champion... :huh
As for Bute the world see him get beat in Montreal and the ref was in Butes pocket, theres no way Butes record shouid be clean and thats a fact.. Ward is a master of dirty fighting you cant use your nut like that.. He has leant the art of head butting while leaning..

 

:rofl

 

Should be Bute's hardest test so far for sure!:good

 

Neaaah... Andrade I ?!

 

Froch would've finished him. like he did Taylor.

 

That was an anomaly. Andrade didn't win more than 1 round going into round 10. Bute shouldn't have gone into the fight in his condition. His whole game-plan based around clinching ineffectively against a much stronger man who worked him up on the inside was also stupid. But maybe you're right... Maybe on the whole, all considered, ... but Bute is smarter and better now, and not ill.

I agree. Froch would have stopped Bute in the last round.

 

Watched the ringside videos, very good documentaries, Bute looks well up for it.

I could see him stopping Froch, in all honesty.

 

i will be covering this fight for the blog http://fightscorecollector.blogspot.com saturday night so remember and add your scores on ESB and i will add to the blog along with all the other scores i collect.

Regarding the fight , ESB just like most forums are pretty split on who they think will win the fight although in just about all of them Bute is the Favorite.

I think that Bute has all the questions to answer in this fight...he is away from home in a big fight for the 1st time and Froch is by far the best opponent he has faced.

Froch has beat and fought the much better opposition although many dont know how much he has left..too many hard fights.

Can i just say this...Arthur Abraham did what Bute has done....he stayed at home fighting decent although NOT elite fighters BUT when he eventually did fight the elite HE was found out...BIGTIME.

Froch to me has always been the favorite in this fight and i give Bute respect for taking this in Nottingham. Saying that though Froch is tested against the elite and Bute isnt thats why i think Froch will win on points around the 8-4 , 7-5 mark.
