      Froch has the intangibles.

        I see it like the first Andrade Bute fight with Froch winning late by ko. Bute hasnt been taken deep since that fight so in that regard he still hasnt proven he can handle a strong pressure fighter for 12 rounds.

          And Froch takes the lead for the first time!

          Would seem to be perceived as a very even fight.

            on paper its a great fight ... in athleticism and boxing skill its not

            butes conditioning and chin can always fail him though. tho frochs chin doesnt look as good as it used to either

              Carl Froch, Lucian Bute and Andre Ward have the tools to beat anyone at 168.

              Who will rise above the rest?

                Froch wins in a close fight.

                I just think Froch is tougher and even if he faces a more skilled opponent, he can find a way to win.

                You need to be really determined and tough to win those types of fights.

                  People are overrating Froch after his shutout victory over Abraham. Abraham has little to zero actual skill...he just hits hard and has a granite chin. Froch lost to Kessler, who IMO doesn't posess the same ability as Ward, Dirrell, and Bute.

                  Bute would box circles on Froch and win by late TKO or a wide UD.
