    Comments Thread For: Lucian Bute-Carl Froch: The Trainers Prediction Roundtable

    John Scully (Bute): “I would go with Bute. I think Bute is kind of on a roll. He’s definitely on a high. He realizes that there’s some big fights coming up for him if he wins this fight. I just like his overall skill set and especially those body shots that he drops in there, so I’ll go with him to win the decision. I don’t think anybody’s going to knock Froch out. I think it’ll definitely go the distance.”

    Eddie Mustafa Muhammad telling it like it is about Shottingham, higher A&E per capita than LA

    In all seriousness, a poll about this fight needs to mention that every guy that gets asked is more than likely gonna have 60% of him thinking that one guy's gonna win, and 40% of him that the other guy is. This is a true 50-50 IMO, the same Ortiz-Berto I was, albeit in different circumstances.

      Froch late stoppage or majority decision based on aggression & workload.

        Come on IBF...It's time for Edwin Rodriquez to fight the winner...or be included in a title eliminator.

                Mate, everyone's entitled to their opinion. I'm expecting a really good fight, maybe a FOTY contender if we're lucky. If a blowout happens, then OK. Must say, on a specific point, that Froch looked very, very sculpted at the weigh-in, and that's not too good a thing to be in my book. Of course, it's different for different fighters, but against Ward I saw Carl make weight and thought he looked rather too muscular, like, say, Jeff Lacy. Hope that it's not the case and I'm imagining things, but I have a sneaking su****ion that Carl may not be as flexible/manouvreable as he was against Abraham/Pascal.

                    Mate, that's generous, green K. If you were in my bar I'd buy you a pint.

                    Actually, given that I've been here since 2, I'd probably give you several
