    Bute's chin?

    Glass? Or is Froch a hard hitter?

    Froch is definitely a hard hitter but Butes chin is not very good.

      I thought it held up reasonably well considering how often he was getting hit flush.

      Brutal 3rd round but imo he was narrowly winning the 4th until the last 20 seconds when Froch unleashed another onslaught.

        Froch hits hard if anyone in the division got hit as much as Bute did in that fight they would be out on there feet also.

        But Bute is also chinny so its a bit of both.

          Straight up glass. Froch's power ended up being overrated, when outside of Taylor he hadn't stopped anyone at a world class level. The fact that every punch he landed clean on Bute hurt him says bad, bad things.

            It's not looking good for him against the top fighters with power. I wouldn't be surprised if he was ruined by Froch tonight.

              Holy **** he withstood an absolute onslaught. His chin is fine. Do you really think you'd take it? You must have an iron chin bro.

              He took a beating, his chin was checked and it got checked ****ing hard. Nothing but props to Bute. Froch is a mean dude.

                Another golden response from some dumb****s on this forum.

                Froch's power was overrated, because he didn't stop anyone at a world class level. Like the guys are just gonna let him tee off on them without him having to set anything up. Get out of here with that ****. It's harder to finish guys at the top. It's that simple. Fighting guys with world class skills is different then fighting part timers who are in it for the paycheck.

                  Bute held on for dear life several times in the first round after getting hit with some just okay shots. I'm not talking about bombs here. The punches that finally knocked out Bute had more to do with Froch's power, but the way he took punches on the lead up makes his chin look very vulnerable.

                    He has an ok chin. Its nothing amazing, but he did take tons of bombs before being TKO'd, so I wouldnt say he's glassed chinned.
