Froch-Bute official fight thread

[Sugar Floyd Louis]

Less than an hour to go...

Common sense tells me Bute has got this but I just have a funny feeling it may be Froch's night!!!

froch SD

[John Bloody Wayne]

Just to get it out of the way, if anyone has a stream link I'd be mighty grateful for a PM

I've got a good feeling with Froch in this fight. You get the feeling the underdog tag suits him, and if he ups intensity soon enough he could test Bute's durability.

[Seanusarrilius]

Come on Da Cobra!

How has the mighty audley got on?

[Seanusarrilius]

Audley wins - 4th round KO

[Union Cane]

Audley wins - 4th round KO

Klitschko next then...

[lfc91]

I had audley by LKO in the prediction league, to bad it wasnt a 6 round fight!

[John Bloody Wayne]

Thanks for the link!

[compelling and rich]

YEah I had lko, its the only reason I was intrested. Got a feeling the main event might be a cracker

[Seanusarrilius]

No worries John Bloody Wayne

[Sugar Floyd Louis]

Right Sean you better be around on June 9th... Cant be asked with Primetime

sorry mate

Prediction Union?

[as1079]

Froch's going to definitely probably win this. Maybe.

Stating the obvious but if Froch can keep it at telephone box range, I think it's his. Maybe 115-113.

[Union Cane]

A draw I hope, as it would pocket me £230.

Heart says Carl will stop him late (and win me £70), head says Bute by decision.

How's that for a prediction...

[ONETWOFOREVER]

sean can you pm me the link as well please.

[ONETWOFOREVER]

sorry union did not see yopur post in time

Love it

I got 2 quid on draw too and 3 quid on KO for Carl at 8/1

So we're very much on the same team right now buddy!!!!

[John Bloody Wayne]

Here's a thought: When Froch was facing Bute's level of opposition, he was levelling them and looking pretty heavy handed too. Any chance, at top level, Bute's power won't actually turn out to be all that?

I've just lumped a ton on Bute at 4/6 and after the day I have had expect a Froch win.

I don't know, it seems legit to me. We're about to find out!

[Sugar Floyd Louis]

WHERE'S FROCH'S MISSUS!!

[ShahenshahG]

Freddie Flintoff looks wasted.

play that in the bacground - makes it dramatic

[Sugar Floyd Louis]

My goodness this arena's buzzing!! We need more of this in the U.K

Respect to Bute for leaving his backyard.

[RANDY77]

Serious atmosphere!! Can't wait!!

[alanqlm]

Alma I had Audley by EKO also had Frampton UD and Cote EKO so Im starting off pretty darn well.... for the record I really think home advantage will make the difference for Froch tonight.

[Sugar Floyd Louis]

Bloody hell... how long does Froch wanna take.

[Sugar Floyd Louis]

Guys ain't it great to be watching a fight at this time and not stupid o'clock!

[Seanusarrilius]

What an Atmosphere. Can feel it through the laptop

[paperbag_puncher]

What an atmosphere. Have a monkey on Bute by decision. Less confident tonight than I have been in the whole build up..

[Marky]

Morning all, working a nightshift at Epsom train station and streaming the fight instead of working

Money's on Froch in the 10th, but I can't help thinking it's more hope than expectation.

[compelling and rich]

not seen a arena like this since hatton, haye and khan split to many opinions, the place is jumping. no where else in the world do you get a atmosphere like this!

[ONETWOFOREVER]

I had Bute by points but this atmosphere is fantastic.

[Sugar Floyd Louis]

Yep.. even though Haye-Chisora will generate more money, the atmosphere will be library-esque compared to this.

[KingMonkey]

Proper pony ringwalks. I don't want German level stuff but this is amateur.

Whatever, it's what happens next that counts.

[TheMackemMawler]

Well the time is upon us and we are about to see how good or how over rated Bute is.....

[ONETWOFOREVER]

To be honest Bute has fought in much bigger atmospheres then this. They are boxing mad in Canada.

[TechInept]

Great atmosphere!

I'm gutted, I'm having to work I'm listening on 5 live. I'm hoping for a Froch win and I can see him coming back from a knockdown to get the KO!

However, if my life was on it I'd bet Bute on points.

[Sugar Floyd Louis]

Forgive me guys but what national anthem is being played for Bute? Canadian or Romanian?

[Seanusarrilius]

Never seen a boxer perve on the camera like Bute id there, haha

[Seanusarrilius]

It was both actually haha

[John Bloody Wayne]

How did Romania do in the eurovision? That will decide the outcome.

i doubt the arenas/casinos were jumping like tonight. amercia didnt know what hit them when hatton fans went over for the mayweather fight. i know canada have adopted bute so to speak but doubt the support for the romainian would be like this

[compelling and rich]

very tight 1st, gave it to froch for being the agressor

[Seanusarrilius]

good openiong round. this is going to get explosive!
