    Win or lose, fighting the best is a much better legacy then just defending your belt against B- level opposition.

    Johnson has also fought many high level guys, but the difference is that he wins a bit randomly and only about 20% of those fights against top 6-8 fighters.

    Froch wins 80% of fights against top 6-8 fighters.

    In my opinion, carl froch deserves much greater praise than joe calzaghe.

    It's a shame it took Carl Froch until he was 30 to really start getting in the mix at SMW but he really has been trying to make up for lost time after accepting he'd left it too late to make fighting Calzaghe an issue he'd be able to force through by becoming a big name himself. Didn't take the Kessler defeat at all well despite losing fairly clearly in a close fight. I enjoyed the schooling he gave Abraham and expect him to grind out a decision against Bute. I've never seen anything by Bute to make me think he'd beat Froch- this is a big step up in class for him but hey, I may well be wrong and if Bute wants to prove me wrong he's going to have to beat the likes of Froch.

    I still think Bute will win by decision but would love Froch to pull it off!! People saying that Froch will be KO'ED will only be right if Froch's whiskers are on the down slope cos he has the one of the best chins in the game!!
