Bute pulled out already! Shocking change of opponent for Froch!

I was just about to say I knew it would happen. But it's a good thing it's a joke because i'm looking forward to it.

Sorry guys!

I'm looking forward to it too. The home advantage is going to be a massive boost for Froch. I think this is a tough, tough fight for him. I see it as 50/50. Froch is starting to look slower, and that hands down style did him no favours against Ward.

He is a double hard bastard though so that will work for him and Bute is untested to a degree but this could be the fight that shows us just how good he is.

I have a bad feeling that Froch may just be starting to slide and Bute might be getting him at the perfect time. It's a fight that I could no way make a prediction on right as my views are going to change regularly between now and fight time. I'll make a prediction closer to the time.

I don't see this going the distance though.
