    I fear that tomorrow, Froch will meet the end.

    Just can't see him winning, as much as i'd like him too.

    I think Bute either wide UD or stoppage, can't see it being close really.

    The Glen Johnson fight was very telling for me, Froch has slipped a little and is just too damn predictable.

    It's been a great run, but I think this is the end of the road for Froch at the top level.

    What a ride.

        Bute never fought anyone as determined as Froch. Dont worry your pretty head about this.

          I am a huge Froch fan, but I cant see him winning this fight either. I hope he knocks Bute out, but I am a realist, and I think he either loses a wide UD or lose by TKO.

            Yeah the Johnson fight says it all. Bute shut him down solid. Late Tko, but Froch will show his warrior heart.

              I reckon if bute comes focussed and fully fit he takes it by wide decision.

              bute has some stamina concerns but i hope he has learned his lesson from the andrade fights.

              people are saying froch will **** to the body but if bute moves well and uses good footwork then i can't see froch getting many punches off. i think any fighter whos moves well will give froch fits (e.g. ward, dirrell, taylor, bute), froch normally does better against fighters who are there to fight (e.g. pascal, AA) or fighters who move in straight lines (e.g. kessler).

                Don't forget they are fighting in Croch's hometown...it won't be easy for Frute to win a decision across the pond.

                  Froch needs to forget fighting behind the jab, and go back to being an all out aggressor like he was in the Pascal fight. That's the only way he is going to win. You can't out-box someone like Bute. You have to take him out of his comfort zone and pressure him constantly. Froch just has to go for it.

                    I cant see bute winning with only a left hook to the abdomen in his repertoire, is that all he can do, you need a bit more than that.
