    If Bute wants Kessler he can go to Denmark.

    Quit low balling proven road warriors like Kessler and then saying he ducked you when he counter-offers.:rofl

    Dawson is fighting B-hop but you probably know it! I just hope it will be Jonhson

    Hold on here, people are saying Bute is picking on Middleweights and you want him to go to light heavy?

    Hummm, logic when you hold my hand...:patsch

    It says over at B-scene that 4 guys were being considered as his next opponent; Dirrell, Pirog, Johnson and Quillen. Quillen has said that "160 is my weight" and he's not interested but Johnson, un-surprisingly, is willing to fight.

    Considering that Froch and Ward are unavailable and negotiations with Kessler broke down, I think Dirrell, Johnson or even Pirog would be very good opponents.

    There's no way Bute should be rated #1 at 168 though - I have Froch there and you could argue Ward over Bute too.

    Who's idea was it to have his last fight in Romania? It was Bute's! The guy is a fraud, afraid to step outside his comfort zone and fight someone with a pulse.

    Johnson can take Bute to deep waters.

    Johnson would be a decent fight, as always Glen will give him a working over.

    So you give him **** for fighting Mendy, rightly so..... and now he's having to look at the middleweight division for a credible opponent, as all the others are tied up.

    What would you rather him do, fight a bum at 168 or fight a high quality middle that's willing to move up to 168?

    ----------------------------------------------------

    Or he could always have a rubber match with Andrade, chance to make it 2-1 :hey

    Bute himself has said he's been struggling to make 168 :patsch
