    did bute freeze?? or was he outclassed???

    i was very dissapointed in butes performance, ppl say froches performance was outstanding but i think it was a very good one with lucian performing absolutely terribly..bute looked weak at the knees before the first bell rang and failed to let any shots go when the perfect counter opportunities presented themselves did bute freeze or was he exposed and outclassed???? what do you think??? also if the rematch where to happen would the outcome be the same????

    I don't know what he was doing. He was clearly hurt after the second round and... honestly I think he just got straight scared afterwards.

        bute had a lot of nervous energy i've watched at least 4 of his fights and he was doing so much moving without throwing a punch in this fight compared to his other ones.

        i think the crowd and the magnitude of this fight really got to him i think he'll be fine but it was a bad choice to fight such a quality fighter away from home for the first time to much going against you and froch capitalized on it.

          Basically he stepped up in class and got destroyed. the fight went the way I expected it to, to be honest.

            The realisation that he was stood across from the ATG that is the Cobra caused him to fear for his safety and well-being and let do a quick job on him instead of suffering a long and sustained beating.

                this fight proved that the saying "styles make fights" has to be taken with a grain of salt....stylewise, bute would've schooled froch..but thats not how the game works;there are other huge factors why skills dont always pay the bills and things have to be considered..like mental toughness,personailties of fighters,determination, discipline , etc....

                having said that, froch outclassed bute fair and square.

                  When you get hurt early it can zap your confidence, your game plan goes out the window. I think that's what happened.

                  Also Froch put it on him with a vengeance.
