Bute should have to fight froch to get a crack at ward, and i dont thin bute can beat froch being that bute has been feasting on nobodies. also frochs fights as are always a good watch. a great fighter. the brits need to give him more respect. they dont now what they have.

froch should a do pvp with bute

He is a very good fighter who never got mentally discouraged last night and never stopped trying to win. He was just in there with a better fighter, he did his best, and it just wasn't enough.

Definitely gets props. He really wasn't supposed to win the Ward fight anyways, his resume is superb, beating Ward would have just been unreal. His stock doesn't really fall with that loss, since it was expected and he actually did fight fairly well.

Froch fought a great fight, never gave up and was ready to exploit any possible opportunity to take control. The last couple or 3 rounds it looked to me that Ward was getting just a little bit tired and Froch started pushing hard to take advantage of it and make up some ground. In the end it wasn't enough but there's definitely no shame in the loss.

Will be happy to watch Froch fight any time.

Pretty much agree with everything everyone has said thus far in this thread

Froch can still avenge the kessler loss! and maybe fight bute! if anybody is willing to travel to canada to fight bute it will be Froch!

Yeah, he was just in there with the better guy. I've got so much to say about that fight, just dont have the heart for it at the moment, I never REALLY thought Froch was going to win but I'm still disappointed.

Ward was better. Froch still beats Bute and if he gets going earlier on he beats Kessler as well. Froch is the #2 SMW in the world, its just the #1 is on a different level.

Ward is A. Froch is B+.

You need to be able to KO people in your weight division to earn an A+.

Froch vs. Bute to see who gets the crack at Ward would be nice, ideally.

To clarify, there's nothing wrong with a Froch-Ward rematch, IMO; there are things Froch could do differently and he finished the first fight strong - he may well lose again, but a rematch wouldn't be objectionable, and certainly not if he beat a Bute or a Kessler.

Assuming Ward doesn't get an irresistible offer up at 175.
