Comments Thread For: Carl Froch: After Ward I Want Bute, Mikkel Kessler Too

[UglyPug]

Froch will beat the Son of Dog, and a Froch-Bute matchup will be very tasty.

Froch is tough, but Bute will beat him.

LOL - did you know that Andre Ward's dad is white? Somebody was saying it, and I didn't believe it -but I watched the showtime 360 jant, and sure enough - his pops was whiter than snow! LOL!. . .

Also, I agree - Bute/Froch is a MUCH MORE exciting matchup than Ward/Bute - which will be a fight in which each fighter throws maybe 300 punches. . One of those "5 landed punches vs. 7 landed punches" a round. . . no drama. . . no action. . .

5M pounds is a loooot of money. Sauerland out very early with this offer obviously trying to prevent Froch from signing another fight before considering a rematch with Mikkel Kessler.

The offer also ensures that should Froch want Kessler in Nottingham he'll have to pay a lot of money which is what he should since Froch's the one seeking redemption.

Froch needs to be smart with Ward.

super six

Whoever wins the super six is gunna haver a big line up of big names opponents i wouldnt mind seeing either ward or froch fight the likes of kessler and bute.

"after Ward"??? -- hey, Carl let's see what you do against Ward first....

[ShoulderRoll]

The Froch-Ward winner should fight Kessler first, and the winner of that fight Bute. . . I say in that order because Kessler was originally part of hte tournament. . .

And let Bute sit there again while these guys beat each other up some more? **** that.

If I was the Super Six winner I would take a little time off after the tournament and let Kessler, Bute, and/or Andre Dirrell go at it for a while.

Bingo.

Ward and Froch have been through the toughest schedule in the division to get where they are at. For Bute to just watch from the outside, and get a free pass at the winner is sickening.

Bute needs to EARN a shot at the super-six winner. A face-off with Kessler/Dirrell first, winner faces Super-six champ.

Ward will take Froch to school and then he will ko bute and will be the p4p #1 which is just waiting for him. Why is ward not ranked higher on p4p then sergio????

Ward will KO Bute?

you're dumb. Ward is not koing anyone unles he fights a top 50 fighter, and even then...

Ward and Froch entered a tournament who left the number 2 of the time apart. Bute does not have to earn his shot, he did a long time ago. Beside, how long do you think the effect of the tounament will play? If they ant big money, they have to do it soon.

I think Ward's Dad was Irish, like proper Irish, not Irish-American. Open to correction on this but I think his mother is British.

The link appears to suggest Froch-Kessler II is the more lucrative fight. Trouble is, Sauerland wants it in Copenhagen, Denmark - and that ain't gonna happen if Froch wins the Super 6.
