What a performance from froch,best iv'e seen from a british fighter in years,absolutely destroyed him,and made him look average at best.

Amazing

If he fights like that next time he should go for Andre Ward and this time he will beat him.

The best performance i have ever seen by Froch by a country mile.

Give Bute his due, he has a pretty hard chin as he took some very heavy shots

really good performance, never thought he could do that, the Ward rematch is pointless though, he loses 10 times out of 10, completely different styles match up and Froch won't deal with it any better 2nd time round.

If he fought like that then he would easily beat Ward

Whether he could do that again is another matter of course

Micko70 you are way off the mark mate.

Don't get me wrong, that was a sensational performance from Froch. Excellent. Howeer Ward is all wrong for the Corba. Stylistically he is all wrong for Froch.

Ward is easily the best in the division.

Froch needs to seek a rematch with Kessler in the UK. Not only would it be a great scrap, but its very winnable for him too.

Froch was just too good for Bute and i think thats one of the main reasons we didnt see him in the Super Sixes..

Bute was nowhere near a good as we have been made to believe and in the elite class of the division was like a rabbit in the headlights..

Froch showed the difference between the top five or so fighters and the rest.

I think Ward would fancy another fight with Froch hopefully in Nottingham and although Froch will know what to expect a second time i think Ward is just a bit too cute for him and although a closer fight Froch looses another decision..

Froch is a true warrior and great respect to the Bute camp for the way they handled the defeat.

Yes

Wow what an amazing performance. Sometimes in Sport and betting it's easy afterwards when you look at a result and think to yourself 'We should have known he'd win really'.

I'm not being an after-timer as I was completely wrong with my prediction, but when you look at who Froch had fought previously compared to Bute and that Froch was at home and wouldn't want to have to bow out of Boxing in front of his home fans it all makes perfect sense. Unfortunately too late to save me a few quid, but I really don't care because it was a privelige to watch his performance.

As far as what comes next, I'd love to see him fight Kessler as their styles make a really good fight and that really would be a pick-em contest.

One last thought, why is Froch's girlfriend so camera shy?

I hate to disagree with everyone but as much as Froch did well, I wans't as impressed as everyone else was. Well done to Carl but to say thats he was unbelievable and that he could beat ward is crazy talk. I think Kessler still beats Froch again and Bute was a chinny overated fighter.

I think the truth probably lies somewhere in the middle, yes it was an amazing performance, but no he wouldn't beat Ward if they fought everyday next week.
