    He walks at about cruiserweight weight. When not training he is about 185-190 lbs.

    Oh really ? :lol::patsch

    You're not very smart for being so confident and delusional after that ass whooping Bute received.

    Froch is too tough, relentless and hits too hard. Bute can't hurt Froch to keep him away, he doesn't move well enough to avoid the punches and his chin isn't good enough to take them.

    Bute should practice running. Its his only chance in the fight because he can't stand and fight. He nerds to be much more elusive.

    Froch is all wrong for Bute.

    Bute isn't elusive enough to evade Froch all night, and he can't take the Cobra's power. Froch can take Bute's punches, and won't be affected by an away crowd so to speak.

    No disrespect, but that was really a dumb opponent to compare with. Carl Froch fought Magee with a broken right hand and 6 years before Bute faced him. Yeah i repeat 6 YEARS. Again 6 Years. No matter what, Bute stepped up in competition for the first time of his career and got beat the **** out /fact

    Most supermiddleweights are the same, in his prime Calzaghe used to walk around at about 200lbs.

    Bute isnt huge at the weight, if he didnt do the weight properly thats just unprofessional.

    Bute has no excuse.

    He was beaten by a better fighter, sometimes it's just that simple.

    Remember that Lucian was drained to the bone despite fighting his entire career at SMW.

    Froch is the exception at SMW, not the rule. He walks around at 172ish, and spends his time in the ring fighting guys who have pretty much all slimmed down from 190's to 200.

    He has a lot of weight to lose few days before the fights, so very little place for error in his schedule. That foot injury was the thing that triggered an unhealthy weight-loss. He did said at the scale that he had a white night trying to make weight.

    The amount of hair loss over such a short period of time is astonishing

    Lost in translation perhaps:huh

    Exactly, plus he spars with lightheavies like Bellew & is used to dealing with guys who outweigh him. Froch a G
