Well I know one undefeated opponent that Lucian would fight in his hometown, but oh wait, he won't fight him. It has got to be Froch, thats a better win than Dirrell, but either way. Just fight somebody, so Ward will be forced to fight him.
TV station in Montreal stating a source close to Interbox....SHO is officially refusing a Froch fight, negociations are stopped. SHO is scared that Bute will win an easy decision against Froch and then move to HBO to fight Ward in a mega fight !! Different scenarios...either Bute fights Froch out of the 3 fight deal and still owes SHO 1 fight or he signs an extended contract of 1 fight with SHO. Problem is HBO has the $$ not SHO. Bute-Froch ****ed by the politics of boxing, I'm pissed...
Let's not pretend that Andre Dirrel is ready for Bute. He has said he'd make the fight, which seems to be Lucians only option now, but I am sure that Interbox is making preparations for these negotiations, but Dre, being the coward he is, will send his brother Tony in there to take his beating, and Tony, having all the heart in the family, will step in and take fight and the loss. This is the obvious scenario here in light of Froch/Steiglitz being pursued, delaying the Kesselr fight, which makes Ward Kessler all the more obvious, putting Tony Dirrel on the backburner and in Bute's grip. Sucks to be Bute and Tony Dirrel at the moment, but after this fight, Lucian will be free, and Tony can see his brother for the braggart coward he is.:rofl
