Because Froch doesn't bring the same pressure Andrade does. Because Froch won't be able to take the same punishment Andrade did in the first 11 rounds of the fight. Because Froch won't be able to touch Bute early in the fight (neither was Andrade). Because Bute has learned from his mistakes from the Andrade fight. Because it took Froch the full 12 rounds to KO Taylor, and Bute has a better stamina than Taylor (of course Bute completely ran out of gas in the Andrade fight, but he finished all his other fights strong, so you can't tell if it really is a stamina issue).

This would be a great fight to watch both fighters are action oriented. The only complaint I have is I wonder who will win the contest of having their lead hand held lower, especially in a battle where normally it's paramount to keep it raised up (Southpaw vs. Orthodox).Comment

Both fighters have pretty similar fighting styles, and both keep their left and right hand low respectively. But Froch has a great chin and too much heart for Bute to capitalise on.

I agree that Froch doesn't bring the pressure and activity like Andrade does.
Bute gassed and got knocked down because he was being pressed the whole night by Andrade.
Bute will out box Froch. The only question remains is will Bute get a fair shake on the cards...and you know it's going to the cards.
I'm very surprised Bute is willing to go to the UK for this fight. He makes good money fighting at home.Comment

I see this as being a carbon copy of Bute-Andrade and Froch-Taylor.
Do you think Hennesey would approve of Marlon Wright refereeing a fight in England?Comment

I'm not worried much about the judges. Bute's team will surely ask for at least 2 neutral judges. And the rounds won't be difficult to judge IMO. Bute will win the rounds where he keeps Froch at a distance and Froch will win the rounds where he can go to the inside.I agree that Froch doesn't bring the pressure and activity like Andrade does.

And I'm as confident as you are that the fight will go to the scorecards. If Froch wins, it's via KO. And Bute could KO Froch as well. Although Froch has a great chin, I think Bute's power is underrated. If he can land that body left uppercut, it could really hurt Froch.Comment
