    Is this your attempt at a Fantana-style thread?

    Hammer, I like Froch, and really agreed with your post in the Froch Kessler thread, but Froch has way more to do to prove he's the best Supermidddleweight around, and that he'll struggle to do. I have a feeling he lacks too many elements to be the best, but I guess thats what this super six tournament is there to do. The good thing for Froch is that at the moment, the only guy really looking good in the Super Six is Andre Ward, and even he makes mistakes and can be hit and Froch has the power to trouble anyone. Kessler and AA no longer look World Class IMO and Dirrell has a way to go to prove that he's at that level. Outside of the tourney, as Froch has previosuly stated, Bute needs to grow some balls. If he was up for proving hes the best, he wouldhave been in the tournament and not fighting two middleweights in Andrade and Miranda.

    Cutting it short, Froch has the opportunity to prove himself, and its game on and open I think.

    Im going with Lucian Bute as the best, i've been a fan of his for awhile. And you don't normally get many slick fighters who can hit hard either.

    Lucian Bute grow some balls ? he couldn't join the Super Six tournament thats well documented. And also because he had unfinished business vs Librado Andrade. And plus because they needed another American fighter in the tournament.

    Lastly how the hell is Librado Andrade a Middleweight ? he's a big Super Middleweight and could easily be a Light Heavyweight, he's never been a Middleweight.

    And your boy Carl Froch was handed a gift, when he was atleast beat by 3 rounds by Andre Dirrell. He will be found out soon.

    No he didn't he got caught late in a fight he mostly dominated, and got up by the count of 8. When the round was already over, even if the ref wouldn't of told.

    Librado Andrade to go back to the neutral corner, the round was over at that point so it didn't matter. All Lucian Bute had to do was stand up and respond to the ref which he did.

    Andre Dirrell beat your boy though, and your boy was also pushd to his limit. By Brian Magee for crying out loud, he will be found out soon. Im just amazed he's got this far without a loss yet.

    And Lucian Bute will destroy Carl Froch, and i'll bet with you or anyone regarding that.

    And Dirrell beat Froch, what's your point?

    I'm totally gonna bump this after the S6.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Andrade had bute down on his ass for 30 seconds before the ref finally started counting, by the time the bell had gone bute had been down for almost a minute

    care to explain to me how that can compare in any manner to froch-dirrell??

    Perfect example of some one going off somebodies else opinion and not watching the fight themselves. Watch the fukking fight, moron.

    Aplogies man, gettin my shit mixed trying to type quick at work so no one clocks me doin it.

    Hell, Froch is certainly not my boy. Don't be getting confused here, i'm no pom pom carrier for Froch. He's slow and quite unco-ordinated at times, and yes he will be found out no doubt, but not by Kessler and certainly not in an easy manner by any of the other tournament fighters, and definately not Bute. If Bute is as good as suggested, I don't care what plan he had, he should have wanted to be in the Super Six, to turn down such an opportunity, 3 big fights and the possibility of proving your the best, just for a fight with Andrade and then Miranda. No way.

    He couldn't be in the Super Six im sure Killersheep will explain to you, there was actual reason's he couldn't be in it. Plus they needed a American fighter, and also its the best thing for Lucian Bute he didn't go in it. Because he beat Librado Andrade in good fashion in the rematch, now a fight between him and the Super Six winner will be huge.

    No sweat, maybe Killer will post something up. Until then, I still don't see Bute. No way he gets a shot at the winner having beaten Anrade and Miranda, i'll stand by that. Anybody in the Super Six, for taking on the fights they have, should get another shot at the winner at the end before Bute just because he added Andrade and Miranda to his record. Who the hell is Bute gonna beat in the meantime while the Super Six plays out to keep up his great form??
