~~~The Lightning Lucian Bute Battleship~~~

there's even a worse scenario: Ward-Froch might have controversy or a debatable decision which may lead to a rematch
Sauerland offer might be a blessing, who knows, if the money is less then they say at the time they will actualy negociate, the winner of superduper6 might turn down the offer; i mean Ward in Denmark seriously risks getting point deductions and Froch already has (according to him) a bad judging experience over there;
so the money must be very appealing to get either of them over there;
if Interbox offer better advantages (location, referees, judges) they might steal the fight; Showtime already stated the promotors will decide the fights, they'll only broadcast

 

Bedard said he is already in talks with HBO that means that Bute will go up at LHW cause HBO doesnt have contracts to other SMW or its a possibility that HBO is in talks with other SMW aswell.

 

Noi nu avem un thread separat pt.toti boxerii romani?
Cum au polonezii,irlandezii etc.
Daca nu avem ar trebui sa faca cineva un Romanian Boxing Thread ca avem destui boxeri romani la profesionisti si la amatori Bogdan Juratoni e promitator cand va trece la profesionisti vom afla cat de bun e.

 

Bute's gloves from the Mendy fight are auctioned for charity reason so that the kids from Bute's village can travel to the boxing competitions and so they can buy new equipment.
The auction has reached 8.100 euro thats like 10.000 $ 4 days before expiration.

Early 2012, Bute will be the only SMW under contract with Showtime. I expect Ward to go with them.

I don't believe the rumor of Sauerland giving 10M$ in purse. For me, that shows he's worried by the fact Bute and the super 6 finalists will be all available while Kesler is not.

 

Doesn't Showtime have options on the S6 winner? I never read anything about it, but it would be stupid of Showtime to invest so much money into the tourney and build up a star just to let go of the winner to the rival network who can then cash on him...

Anybody has information about that?

 

I don't think so because Showtime said promoters had to agree to fight before they can get in the talks.

 

So Interbox negotiate with a lot of respect in all ways... Doesn't sound to be the type of guys to lowball everyone.

 

Constantin Bejenaru a castigat un turneu la categoria grea. Si-a inceput cariera cu acest turneu si l-a castigat. Este destul de interesant , desi este cam mic pt un greu.

"They (Showtime) plan to do a press conference with him and set the table for a possible fight with Froch or Ward," Bedard said.

That sounds like a good plan:good

 

Coincidence or not Bute owns a muscle car Ford Mustang GT 500 Convertble.

good idea , you got many good boxers in Romania it diserve it's own thread ! I'm so good in Romanian i'm ready to order my wife :yep

What's the name of that young HW who fought on the undercard of Bute-Mendy , damn that guy was impressive , i would love if I-Box sign him!

 

Bogdan Dinu,he has great physique a true heavyweight and impresive skills for his height
also Viorel Simion looked great against Talape
Dinu is not active enough cause he dont have a promoter to build him up
INTERBOX should sign Bogdan Dinu

 

I posted this some 2 weeks ago. Odd that it takes so long for this news to get through internationally.


10M? That's speculation, but allegedly Calzaghe and Kessler received 5M each for their fight, so a record purse must be 5M+.
