Being in Montreal won't do shit to help Bute, but the fans will probably burn a few cop cars once he gets knocked out again.
Simon Brown knocked out Terry Norris in 4 and in the rematch Norris won by decision. I give Bute a decent shot and making the proper adjustments to make it interesting if they fight again.
Terry Norris lost fights because he didn't have much of a chin, but he was rarely outclasses before being knocked out, even against Julian Jackson he was doing fairly well.
Bute just got dominated in every facet, wasn't so much his chin as the fact he had no answer for what Froch was doing.
Terry Norris should never have lost that fight against Brown, so that is not comparison. Bute should stay away and build up his confidence before going back in with the big boys.
Remember Taylor had a rematch clause with Pavlik but at the higher weight which was very odd. Pavlik won again but points this time and Taylor go some respect back. I think that is what Bute may want to do.
Now you know why Hopkins wanted to fight Bute.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
