    I disagree. Cloud is an undefeated, mean, rugged fighter that would have a lot of momentum coming in the fight.

    Cloud is perfect for Bute. He wouldn't run anywhere. The only reason Cloud doesnt have as much exposure as Froch is because Cloud can't get the top guys to fight him; which is why he's perfect for Bute.

    I'm not knocking a Bute vs Froch fight. I'm just saying, let's let Carl get a few wins under his belt, then make the fight happen. Not right after Froch has been in the SS for the past 2 years.

      How much credit do you give him for the Morales rematch win? None, right?

        What are you talking about right now...

        Can we stick to Bute?

        You know as well as I do, that if we start talking about Pac, this thread will go in 10 different directions.

        Start another thread and I'll give you my take on it.

          Honestly, I think Cloud vs Bute has Kirkland vs Angulo written all over it. Not because their styles are similar, but because it would be an exciting fight.

          That fight would be a war with FOTY written all over it. The even better part of the fight is the winner will get his just due.

          There wouldn't be any "oh, he was coming off a loss" or "oh, he just got beaten in his last fight and was in a tough tourny for the last 2 years" type comments after the fight.

              He's not scared he just doesn't want to right now which is acceptable as long as he makes it a priority sooner than later it's just dissapointing with all the buzz created by the tourney too shy away from the best fight out there.

                Especially after this tournament turned out to be sort of a joke. Ward should have been looking to Bute even before the Froch fight since Froch basically made it to the finals by default.

                  I've been trying to tell you, PM me what I owe you and show me how to pay and I will lol....

                  Why do you keep asking me to pay when I already stated I would if you PM me the amount and show me how to pay it?

                  PS: No hypocrisy, that's how I've always felt about fighters coming off losses.

                    The amount was all of mine vs 11 million of yours, just PM he mod and they transfer it over I'm quite certain.
