Lucian Bute vs. Carl Froch Saturday fight thread

Froch could have got disqualified by the prat Hearns running into the ring

I gota say I always thought bute belonged with the top dogs and thought he'd take froch, but holy shit ...just wow great performance by froch and seriously can most of us have actually been this wroooooooooong about bute, holy shit every punch that landed had him dazed

Time for Froch to beat Kesler (again).

Stunning stuff from Froch, he was landing big bombs from round 3 onwards, and Bute was all over the shop. Best start to a fight from Froch I've seen for ages.

Epic stuff.

Spot on mate.

Luckily it was totally academic, Bute was fucked and his corner wanted him out too.

Me too. Froch is probably my favourite fighter, but I though Bute was going to stop him tonight. Nice to see him absolutely dominate.

Haha not happening as spectacular a performance as this was

I swear to fucking God if Bute tries to blame this on his toe, I'll fly to Montreal and kick him in the balls myself.

Froch looked pretty good. He reminds me of some of those old time fighters you see that seem to do everything wrong, but do it that way all the time and make it work for them. Smart guy, I think. He kept making that move, behind his right hand, where he'd bring his left foot up- take a southpaw stance himself- and land his left.

If that would have happened it'd have been an absolute disgrace. But fair point, Hearns was a complete prat on that one.

I assume you mean that you don't think Froch will beat Kesler, because it sounds like they both want the fight and there is no way Bute is going to invoke his rematch clause after the one-sided beating he just took.

I'll buy you the in-flight meal and chip in a few bucks for pre kicking beers.
