It's a hard fight to call. Bute is by far the more talented fighter, but Froch has a much better resume and has made a career of willing his way to victory over more skilled opponents.

I think it's a fight that really could go either way. Both fighters have power and both have shown they can outbox their opponents. I think it would really interesting to see how Froch responds to Bute's body-attack. I wouldn't be surprised to see it play out like Froch - Taylor in that Bute jumps out to a big lead only to be stopped late.
