After reading the comments on this thread who is even the favorate in this fight?
I always thought Froch was but it seems a 50/50 fight in most people eyes.

This is not a 50-50 fight.. Bute wins easy
Re: Carl Froch Vs Lucian Bute,who is going to win? VOTE NOW!!!!
Bute by late stoppage, Froch is too slow and his defense ain't good enough to deal with Bute's speed and power on a southpaw stance.

That said and done I think Bute will do exactly that and slow froch to a crawl where he's reduced to pop shotting and counter punching.
Actually, Bute never tired in a 12 rounds fight except against Andrade in the very last round because he tried to play the bulldozer in order to please the crowd. bank on it: He won't lack any energy during the whole fight and as Froch doesn't have Andrade bull's jaw and style, he won't drain him down in the last third.

I do admire Froch , he really is a throw back to an era when fighting the best out there mattered more than keeping an unbeaten rocord.
I totally agree with that. In that respect he puts a lot of top boxers to shame. No matter what with Froch you know he will do everything he can to win and even if he can hardly stand, he wont give up. He is like a real Rocky. Unfortunately he takes as many punches in the face as Rocky did in his fights.

Your favorite SMW disagrees: Dirrell Says Froch Beats Bute, Talks Andre Ward, More - Boxing News
Re: Carl Froch Vs Lucian Bute,who is going to win? VOTE NOW!!!!
Dirrell is bound to say that Froch beats Bute beacuse Froch beat him. I think Bute is far too quick for Froch and is definitely the better boxer. Froch hasn't KO'd anybody at world level unless you count Taylor who just didn't have the stamina to finish twelve rounds -- while he was operating at full speed he easily outboxed Froch and put him down. I think Bute could even stop Froch, Froch looked slow in his last fight and Bute has more power than Taylor.

That will be the key to Froch winning, timing his shots. Most of the top fighters know Froch is slow and think they can out box him.

i think froch has got it in him to pull out perhaps one last top level performance
Re: Carl Froch Vs Lucian Bute,who is going to win? VOTE NOW!!!!
people seem to think bute has some thunderous power
wheres the evidence of this? is it coz he has knock out a bunch of second tier fighters who have all been knocked out before? and quicker?
one result that wont happen in Bute KO
the most likely results are froch KO and Bute on points
Re: Carl Froch Vs Lucian Bute,who is going to win? VOTE NOW!!!!
Bute UD unless Froch gets a hometown decision like he did against Dirrell. Bute will be more offensive than Dirrell was though, so it will be harder to justify a BS points decision for Froch.
Zero chance of Froch KO'ing Bute. As someone above pointed out, Froch does not have KO power against top-level guys. It remains to be seen whether Bute does -- but even if he does, Froch has about as good a chin as anyone.
