Carl Froch - Lucian Bute this Saturday

[Matty]

Bute's team may have a trick up their sleeve though - Froch's corner entered the ring before the fight was called. Depending on the IBF rules Froch could be DQ'ed after review.

That sounds like some lame golf rule.

Pretty clear Bute won that fight by DQ. Froch's corner obviously entered the ring during the 10 count. Automatic DQ.

Bute exposed as a bum with no chin. Got beat by a c fighter.

 

[Matty]

a c fighter.

Froch is a B+/A- guy. He's gonna beat most guys in the division. His two losses are against elite talent.

 

[RayRay]

froch is def. in that division at the right time... guy has heart ... looking forward to seeing a rematch vs. ward

Apparently Bute's corner threw the towel first, that's why Froch's guys jumped in.

I don't know what to think after this loss. Stphane Larouche, Interbox's head trainer, is either a genius or an incompetent twat. Interbox has developed a shitload of guys that went on to fight for one of the main belts, but if you look at Bute's (and Alcine's and Diaconu's and Lucas's, among others) record, it's more of a case of fighting the right guy at the right time.

I've been following Bute since the very start and he's never changed anything to his style. He was always an in-and-out slugger with little defensive skills. You'd think he'd be able to slip a punch after 10 years in the pros.

Fire Larouche.
