Comments Thread For: Bute vs Froch For April 14th, Rematch on August 4th

Kinda odd with the rematch deal. Guess they think they'll make more money that way, which I reckon they will.

Anyway, major major props to Britain's best fighter! Love Froch, he's such a lanky big-nosed beast!

Hate rematch clauses. What if Bute blows Froch out or the other way. I want the winner to fight Ward. Now it might not happen in 2012, even if one completely outclasses the other in April.

Great now we can find out what Bootay really has or if he is genuinely a world beater or not, much easier to look impressive stopping softer opponents than doing what Froch has done the last few years.

Excellent match-up. I'm surprised that Froch doesnt get homefield for the first fight though. He certainly deserved it.

Froch has more than earned the right to have the first one be in Nottingham if he wants. His promoters are really dropping the ball if they make him go to Canada first.

I suspect the reason that Froch is fighting in Canada first is because he knows he can make more money there and knows that after Bute KHTFO nobody will want to see Froch back in England. Froch is a realist.

I would of preferred Ward vs Bute but Froch vs Bute is a nice matchup.

It will be interesting to see how Bute performs against a top super middleweight.

Bute on point or a body shot stoppage.
