Did the Froch beating scare Bute from fighting?

[powerpuncher]

the bute situation is weird because he was thought so highly of. everybody thought that bute and ward were the best 168 pounders in the world and needed to fight. once froch destroyed bute, everybody pretty much forgot about him. i still think that he is a good fighter but just not great. i think pascal will win because he has a great chin, has a decent punch and has decent speed. i think that he will eventually catch bute. most people already knew that bute had a weak chin before the froch fight.

I think Bute still has a lot to offer personally. After seeing Froch Groves he'll potentially fancy that rematch more. I'd like to see him make a statement and beat Pascal, that would shake things up again. He still has very good boxing skills and the punch power to trouble anyone at 168 atleast. I guess we'll see.....

No I don't think so. I think Bute is scared of fighting Froch again and is waiting for his decline before exercising a rematch clause. Bute is pretty skilled and has decent wins on his ledger against other big punchers. I think Pascal will beat him though and who knows how he'll be after that?

Have to agree. Bute has to defeat Pascal to stay relevant, in my opinion.
