Thread: Froch vs Bute on April 14 in Canada, then a rematch on August 4 in Nottingham

Bute vs Froch For April 14th, Rematch on August 4th - Boxing News

Good to hear although don't like the whole "a rematch regardless of the outcome" what's the point if either one dominates the whole fight and gets a late stoppage.

Bute finally gets his chance to step up. I'm curious to see how he'll fare.

I'm a big fan of Froch, but I think he's going to take a beating here. Bute by TKO.

Froch's clumsyness and his lazy ass jabs makes him susceptible to bute's uppercuts.



Ive always liked froch due to his supreme confidence but I think bute catches him with something brutal..

I'm willing to bet that froch could tysons punches!!!

Froch could be old now though

Froch is a beast

Everyone in the world of boxing should respect froch, the man has bottle

My bet is bute doesnt make the rematch

Froch just doesn't know how to take an easy fight... Or make a fight easy... Which worries me. But either way Froch is an absolute legend.

You cant say that froch avoided ANYBODY.

I''m a fan of Froch, the man has balls and doesn't avoid anyone. But his confidence will have him walk into vicious uppercuts that are gonna win Bute the fight. Can't count Froch out the man is non stop, wouldn't be a shocked if his pressure broke Bute down and got a late stoppage. I'm picking Bute to win this.

Now when I compare Calzaghe to froch I say froch has a better record the travelling and competition faced is second to none, tbh he should be considered a future hall of famer, but before he retires he should grab the European belt just to say he has had them all!!!! I do think he can beat bute but he needs to spar with Calzaghe which would get him in good form for Bute. I say froch late tko

This may upset you Froch fan's he is a limited fighter, on 3 occasion's he has been well out boxed by
Ward and Kessler,and Taylor against Taylor he got lucky.?
About 5 year's back I was talking to a former SM World champ not Joe, about him he told me he hold's his hand's to low, and he is very open to counter's.
Which was all correct, and I can see Bute out boxing him, Froch is a bit like a Ford Mondeo it's a good car,
but it will never beat a Aston Martin.?

I suppose we are well entitled to our opinions but froch is going to beat a roman!!!!
The way I see it if you don't like froch then u don't like boxing. He is what's keeping the sport watchable

Wow great news and the rematch date falls on my Birthday so a trip up to Nottingham may well be in order. I can see everyones point about Froch being open to Bute's uppercuts but I don't think you can discount the possibility of Froch stopping Bute in either match. Whatever happens I want to have seen the Cobra fight here in the UK.

Why couldn't Bute wait on Ward? Ward vs Bute is the fight we all want to see.

Big UPS to Froch. He lost the Super 6 final and already, ready to get back in the ring with the 1A of the super middleweight division. I guess we all know who Ward is going to fight. Anthony Dirrell. Although he have been hinting around a catchweight fight, Martinez.

Good fight to look forward to! Am a big froch fan but it will defo b interesting to c bute at a much higher level.this will b a gd scrap and am hoping froch can do it but wot av seen ov bute he looks impressive he better ready for a serious fight thow cos Carl fired up for this 1 as always!
