Bute-Froch won't be 'toe story' - Dan Rafael Blog - ESPN



ESPN reports that Lucian Bute will not use a recent foot infection as an excuse for his upcoming fight with Carl Froch. Bute's trainer, Stephan Larouche, indicates that Bute-Froch won't be a "toe story".

At that moment and somewhere in the UK, David Haye inexplicably gagged on his lunch.

On the sky show Johnny Nelson was saying that Bute has an infected foot which could hamper him during the fight with Froch. I think they are pretending otherwise they would not have disclosed that information, just seems too obvious.

I just hope we don't get a hometown decision here. Boxing needs more fights where undefeated guys are willing to take the risk and fight in an opponent's backyard.

If Bute fights well and wins a fair decision in front of a sold out crowd, that would be good for boxing.

It would also be good for boxing if a fighter who has avoided nobody and travelled abroad many times, is given the credit, should he win clearly on points, and not have to face accusations of a home town desicion, just because he hasn't knocked Bute out.

Anyone know what time they're going to be in the ring? I've got an evening to plan. Sky says it starts at ten but the show goes on till one so I'm guessing eleven to eleven thirty?

It will be somthing like that. The doors to get in close at 10. I doubt anyone else on the card but Frampton and the main event would be getting shown on Sky so maybe get half an hour of previews on sky then Frampton around 10 30 or somthing like that then the main event.

I think if Bute goes hard to the body he'll cause Froch alot of problems, especilly as it will likely stop him from coming on stronger late, where you would expect Bute to have most of any issues. The crowd could be a big factor... both in affecting Bute and the judges if i comes to that.

Correct me if I'm wrong. But isn't Froch the same fighter who would of been stripped of his title if he didn't fight Jermaine Taylor? Isn't Froch the same fighter who bitched and complained that he had to face Mikkel Kessler in Denmark? Even using a volcano eruption as an excuse to try and get out of the fight? Isn't Froch the same fighter who threatened to pull out and even retire if he couldn't face Arthur Abraham in Nottingham? Isn't Froch the same fighter who had to be threatened with legal action in order to reach a compromise and face Abraham in Switzerland?

You are wrong, but there is no need for me to correct you.

Bute will destroy Froch.

Sadly I agree

Hope Im wrong but this time.....

I actually like Carl Froch, wouldn't say i am a fan. But i admire his courage and willingness to fight anyone. I just see this as terrible match up, i think Carl Froch could well get stopped here, Lucian Bute is a good puncher especially to the body.

But i hope im wrong and we see a good even fight, Froch's best bet is try and rough Bute up. And keep the pressure on and maybe he can do another Andrade but actually finish the job this time, sadly don't see that happening though.

Supprised so many peoolpe think Bute will win.


I think Froch will stop him around 9 or 10.Perhaps while behind on points,

The trainer said Bute was 100%, so I wouldn't expect the foot to be used as an excuse should Bute lose. Gotta love the dig at David Haye, however. "Toe-gate", "Toe Story".... it'll be awhile, if ever, before Haye lives that one down.

Id like to see Froch forget about loading up on those big shots. I used to mention them before he fought Pascal, he seems to think hes quicker than he is, he loads up and swings and rhe opponent is already out the way. He did it with Ward too. He needs to think like Calzaghe here and throw lots of sharp shots, stuff that will either actually land or at least keep Bute thinking. If he just waits for the single jabs or or uppercuts, he will give Zbute plenty of time to land first. He needs to pressure Bute and make him feel uncomfortable and make him work and tire. Froch is used toworking hard late wheras Bute isnt.

That is because he is not his promoter.
