    I voted Bute by TKO, but I think I change my mind. I expect Froch to be outclassed, but I think he's good enough that he can survive to the distance, maybe even win a few rounds each fight. It looked like Kessler could've really taken control in his fight with Froch, but he seemed to have trouble pulling the trigger. Same with Dirrell in that he simply wasn't aggressive enough with Froch. Froch looked great against Abraham, but Abraham wasn't throwing anything. Bute should look great. Respect to Froch, he had the toughest road in the whole tournament.

    Of course, but there's a big risk of a controversial in Montreal (or Nottingham). I find that particular clause in the contract ridiculous (if true that is).

    yes ,this risk works for both sides. thats why a neutral play ground is an ideal choice.

    If Bute wins bY K.O/T.K.O in Canada , indeed the second fight can be pointless. Same with Froch .

    he is not over the hill at all. Ward is just to good for him.

    Prime or not he will fall with a devastating body shot. Nobody can resist to the best waepon in boxing if it's perfectly landed by Bute...nobody

    Comparing Bute style to Pascal is stupid. Bute is always in perfect balance unlike Pascal, Bute is calculated and a great counter-puncher, Pascal ambush ppl with short series, jumps in with the lead right, Bute's jab is better. Pascal has been tired in the later rounds of all the world title fights he had until now, Bute looked like having impeccable stamina with the exception of Andrade 1.

    Froch shows more heart and balls than Kessler and Ward united in his willingness to fight Bute!

    I hope and would think Showtime wouldn't be stupid enough to tie themselves to the rematch automatically. It's a ridiculous notion in the first place.

    Pascal lost to a decent but glorified brawler, an old men, couldn't ko a midget and was at the reviving end, badly hurt when Dawson was cut. :lol:

    An brawler which resume's is 20 times better than Bute.

    And an ATG that have been calling Bute out... No shame in losing to Bernard :deal

    I wonder fi Bute will beat Froch badly even by stoppage , Ward will fight with him or he will say that Bute didn't prove nothing and he has to fight and with Dirrel and Kessler to earn a shot ??

    Kessler is a good draw / fighter but if he will refuse another proposal from Bute , should Bute take the fight against Hopkins / Pascal ??

    P.S Dirrel has to take some fights with , lets say : Sakio Bika, Miranda "to earn a shot against Bute / Froch / Kessler !! :)
