Comments Thread For: Froch: Mack is Fighting For His Life, This Will Be a Test

[PrecisionKiller]

Mack is crap but this fight is more of a tune up for the Bute rematch. Bute can't do any worse, he simply stood on the ropes. Now forgive me if this sounds like an excuse, but 10 days before he had a foot injury, the team never wanted to use it as an excuse, which is fine, but I did find it strange how immobile Bute was.

I think The Cobra has earned the right to a "gimme", given that his last eight fights have all been against world class opposition back-to-back.

It'll be a test all right. But for Mack, not Froch. Froch by KO in 3.

Right. And David Haye had an injured toe against Klitschko.

Why the hell is Froch referring to himself in the third person?

because he was making a statement from an objective standpoint through the eyes of Yusuf Mack

More strange was his inability to take a straightforward Froch body-shot, Bute was supposed to be the body-puncher.

No hate for the guy but Bute seemed to get hurt so easily, like he belonged in a different weight class.

even Froch's tuneup fights are against decent fighters. He hasn't fought a stiff in like five years. I'm not a huge Froch fan but he does take on the best in his division on a regular basis.
