i dont think this fight is as onesided as it sounds

if froch has one weakness its he can be outboxed and mack definately seems capable of landing more scoring shots than froch

mack has been infront in all the fights he has lost

you never know, if he can stay on his feet it could be interesting

In a very odd turn of events, considering his strong pro-British stance, my opinion has come to be in line with @erics44 a number of times recently.

He's correct on multiple points: Mack has been ahead in all the fights he lost. He's also correct that Mack can box a bit and Froch has had some weakness against boxers, although he looked spectacular against Bute. However, he is a favorite here for a reason. Mack was chosen for a reason. Froch can punch. Mack has been knocked out. Do the math. The most likely outcome is Froch bombs on Mack late for a KO.

Mack isn't as tough an opponent as Grachev was for Bute, but Bute needed to get by a tough opponent mentally to prepare for Froch. Froch just needs a fight so he can stay fresh for the Bute clash in the spring.
