    From Dan Rafael :


    Since Quilin and Pirog are Middleweights, I wonder how much credit would Bute get for taken on either...

    He smashed him with big rights and was way too strong for Jessy. He is a real live fighter who looks hungry for bigger things. Maybe too green at 168 to face Lucian already...

    I agree, if he moves up they will probably strip him and when he loses to bute you will never hear anything about pirog again because nobody will face him, he needs to look for good fights at 160.

    Hope not for Pirog, since he's a real MW and never fought at 168. He's good, but I would give him a few prep fights before facing Bute.

    Why is Lucy not considering him as an opponent then if its that easy for him?
    theres a good stroy to tell because of what happened to Lucy the last time they fought and would generate a lot of interest therefore and money..
    also do you think Pirog is better than Golovkin? no way he is..

    Showtime won't give Bute 2 mil to fight a MW, especially not one who nobody knows about in the USA...that's why I would face Dirrell but he's not able to make November or Quillin who is more hungry than good old Glen Johnson, not Pirog or Golovkin!!
