A Grimm Night Ahead For Froch
Bute is for real, mastering range, quickly shifting his weight/readjusting his position to gain momentum in/for his powershots.
I expect him to keep a low profile for some rounds, let Froch do some initial bullruns for the home crowd (and them English crowds know how to make some noise), and then step it up – finding the range, getting in the rhythm with his jab, and letting that beautiful left go versus body and head.
Froch has reached his roof, can't further maximize his limited skills, and will look more rudimentary than for a long time. All respect to him for what he's achieved, but his footwork and balance is on the level with a…well, I don't know what. Bute stops him around 11-12. No holding back for old friends this time.” –Grimm says Froch has reached his ceiling and will bump into a rude awakening on Saturday

YOU GUYS ROCK
Another stellar year from our Forum crew, the best in this known universe. Results for Reader of the Year are still being tabulated. In a moment of weakness, I hired CJ Ross to help with the computation and, well, it didn’t go well. Happy New Year to the best and brightest amateur scribes! –Editor Mike

(MGM) Grand Illusions
“Boxing is full of optical illusions. And I give Money May MAD props for doing a mix of Houdini and Marlin The Magician. Wow! Money May fought a club-fighting-like humbug in “The Cali Ghost.” And a hyped-up B fighter in Canelo. The promotions were grand to get eyeballs and easy impressionable minds behind those PPV screens. Because the live gates didn’t sell out.” –Radam isn’t sold on this being the year of Money May
