he was fighting in front of 16 thousand canadians for 8 or 10 fights as an elite fighter, can he still do this? what does he need to do to be considered a top smw again?
was he overrated?

Re: what now for bute?
He beat decent opposition, but past it opposition and avoided the Super 6. Froch showed that Bute cannot take a shot and that should stay home and fight the likes of Allan Green. I don't think Bute has what it takes and this fight will have destroyed his confidence.
He's nuts if he chooses to waste all our time with a Froch rematch.

Re: what now for bute?
He never avoided the S6 and I wish people would quit saying he did. He was not even asked and was in effect froze out. Instead the powers at be invited Taylor and Abraham who had no business being there.Originally Posted by Gandalf
The speed in which people are written off today is hilarious. Of course he is still a top 168 pounder. He simply got beat. And rest assured he will demand a rematch. Froch looked great last night and executed his game plan perfectly with a willing opponent allowing him to do so.Bute right off the get go decided to try to out slug the slugger. He was so worried about his feet that he ended up punching off the front of them. Bute will regroup just as any elite after a loss.

Re: what now for bute?
Bute should take on Kessler 1st before a rematch with Froch.
If Kessler kayoes him then take Allan Green to rebuild and try on Abraham.

Abraham was top dog in a weight very slightly below 168, he was happy to step up to the weight, i think he deserved his place in the s6, ok id maybe of put bute in First but didnt he have andrade lined up and was commited to fight him?

Re: what now for bute?
I dread to think what Ward would have done to Bute.
he's done as an "elite" fighter because honestly he isn't one.

While ward wins that I don't think it would have been a beatdown the way this was, completely different fight...

I no he is one of your own,Bute is not finished but it was a very damaging defeat if you are honestHe never avoided the S6 and I wish people would quit saying he did.

Kessler and Ward would both beat him. As for the rematch forget about it he will just get Ko again
Froch has his number Bute can not handle pressure if you let him get into a rhythm he's hard to beat
but Froch is to much for him the fight was a bit like the old rabbit in the headlights for Bute he froze.

Re: what now for bute?
Well we differ. I dont do the if A beat B and B beat C then A beats C calculation. Boxing simply does not work that way. Bute was not himself and fought rather stupid and seems to be echoing what I said today in the press. At any rate Froch beating him does not mean Ward or Kessler does. All three fight nothing alike. I wish modern day boxing would turn their collective back on the notion that because someone undefeated has lost they are done. I mean imagine if Benny Leonard quit after he was knocked cold or Arguello getting stopped in about his tenth fight. A loss is not the end of the world as most all time greats will attest to. Sure its tough to take as a fan of his from the moment he started as a pro. To see him lose in that type of fashion but he will be back imo and the better for it.I no he is one of your own,Bute is not finished but it was a very damaging defeat if you are honestHe never avoided the S6 and I wish people would quit saying he did.

I agree with your take. Bute seemed lost.

Bute should take on Pascal.

The point's you have made are correct, Bute having lost in that manner will need to get back on trackWell we differ. I dont do the if A beat B and B beat C then A beats C calculation.

Kessler is a very good very hard punching fighter that straight right hand would get to Bute just like Golovkin got him same out come. Ward would bust him up fair or foul.
