I hope Bute smashes the bloke to bits and comes back and gives a better account of himself second time round. I think he will as well, still think Froch takes it late though. Maybe forces the stoppage in the 11th after coming through some rough moments.
I rewatched the fight the other day, He landed on Froch but it was mad how Froch walked through his shots and he just crumbled. TBH i was shocked they didn't use the toe infection as a excuse. I think in front of own fans. Froch not feeding so much off of crowd energy etc i think as you say it goes a little longer but Froch's contempt for his power and Bute's fragility would see him crumble late no apple :yep.
I think Froch stops him personally, a little later and not as one sided but if it went points you'd have a feeling he may well get the nod even if Carl is ahead on most peoples card's. I felt it was the short snappy left hand in a exchance early that done Bute last time. Looked like he never recovered but everytime he was hit he would sag. I can't see how he'd stop Froch from charging him and trading and thing is Bute's shots made no mark on Carl that probably beat him mentally as well. Hit most guys and they don't wanna know and this guys smiling as you hit him. He hit Froch with a trade mark left uppercut to body and Carl laughed :rofl.
I don't know Mand, what your saying is spot on and I agree, I just have a feeling Bute will fight like he's got a rocket up his arse and Froch will be a bit sluggish? Bute may not deserve the win but he will get the nod over in Canada.
Yeah Carl has to start well, if he allows Bute to settle and gain belief he's got a long job on his hands.
The thing with that fight was Froch took his soul it's one thing to take a guys shots but the utter contempt Carl showed them broke Butes heart.The 2nd fight may go differently for a few rounds but at some point he will look into Frochs eyes and know deep down that whatever he does it's not enough..
