Carl froch vs lucian bute who wins and why

Froch by KO

No seriously!!
Froch would walk on to that right uppercut all day wouldn't he?

overrated right upper cut

neutral ground froch would win

in canada bute would have a chance

Bute would win cause hes better

I can't get my head around why froch would go to Canada when he said he wants to fight at home?

From what I read after the S6 finale, there would be two fights. The first would be in Montreal and the second in Nottingham.I imagine they would sell a lot of tickets in both locales. Frankly, I'm looking forward to these battles as any in boxing. I expect Froch will make Bute go through hell for a win. I'm a Bute fan so you know my prediction, but I like Froch's attitude. He's a hard man. To be fair, I see scenarios where both men win.

Does anyone know who Ward thought was his toughest opponent in the tournament?

I'd say froch gave him more pressure. The official scores suggest the fight was closer than we think, to be fair froch did land to the body often. Ward was very tired in last two rounds whilst froch was jogging to close the gap

I believe you are correct.

You are the first to agree which means you know more about this sport than anyone on here lol

Froch has a chance of hurting Bute , but for me he is to open , 60 / 40 in favour of Bute for me.
Could go either way, but i would go for Bute and I would go for him to be the first to stop Froch late on.

Froch in the UK, Bute in Canada.

I've been watching froch fights from his debut again and have noticed he or he seems faster before 30 years of age, watch him against Damon Hague and Henry porras in Hollywood and tell me whats different from then to now and give your pros and cons

The difference is that he was in against crap competition then.

At the elite level, I've never though much of Froch. Big heart, great chin, but very slow and very poor fundamentals. So easy to hit.

It's hard to say anything with confidence about Bute, since he hasn't faced anyone better than a super-faded 45 year-old Glen Johnson, but I'd still pick him to beat Froch. The only attribute where Froch has the advantage is chin, but Bute's not an eggshell like Jermain Taylor so I don't think that's much of an issue anyway.
