    Cloud's not ready for that level IMO, He'd be beaten easily. Probably Bute it's a stylistic match up which intrigues me. Dawson fight nah just can't be asked with it tbh...

    Bernard said that he would be agree to travel to Canada and fight with Bute , even at 170 pounds c.w .

    I'd like to see that fight but first the rematch against Dawson ,....... if will happen ever :D

    Cloud beats Dawson. He'll easily outwork him. Dawson beats Hopkins. Pascal probably beats him in the trilogy. Just throw punches. Hopkins has no stamina.

    Anyway , if this fight ( Hopkins vs Bute ) will happen and Bute will win fair&square , do you think that people still will say that Bute fought with an old boxer in his hometown, and won't take in consideration that Hopkins is the champ of the LHW div. ??? .....

    Do some people really think a high workrate is enough to win fights legitimately? It seems that it's thrown around an awful lot."X beats Y because he throws more punches."

    Isn't that what caused you to score Cleverley 116-112 in the Welshmans favor? ;)

    If you mean a higher volume of quality work, then yes.

    you can throw a lot of punches and have a good work rate , but if those punches aren't accurate and you miss a lot, is useless ... waste of energy:D ...... timing and accuracy are two priceless atributes.

    some of them think that is enough :)

    There is unfinished business with Dawson. That fight needs to be made.

    Boxing is a joke. Too many fights not being made. Why is Sturm talking about Geale and Pirog, there should only be a Murray rematch to settle the score. Why is Chavez shaming his father and continuing to duck Martinez! The list goes on.
