    cut out out all doubt, if you are that good pale them in comparison. Why fight a lukewarm list, its just more of the same. The list should read, and that is of course if Butes that sure of himself:

    Bhopkins
    Dawson
    Pascal
    Dirrel
    Cloud

    well? WTF compare this to that list you support.

    If thee is no Froch and no quack, quack (Ward) available, then the best fight possible is Dirrell. But Dirrell doesn't want to try to get the belt and the fame and recognition that comes with if that means fighting in Quebec.

    So it should be Dirrell, and Dirrell should make a man of himself and fight the Champ in his backyard, like it should be.

    Last point First.. Your right Dirrell has no right to make demands.. :deal

    Second point.. Tony Dirrell should go to Canada, he has more heart.. not afraid to go out on his sheild.. Even though Leon Lawson would not let him.. It could be a scouting mission for the Dirrell team on Bute.. and Its a decent fight.. Underated I would say..

    First point.. Ward is shuting Haters UP 1 at a time.. Pay Dirrell some step aside money to Fight Kessler and avenge Headbut Gate.. Kessler is in no way shape in form in a position to demand a fight in Europe... UNLESS its for 10M, that gives them a lil more negotiation power if they can secure that type of payday...

    Shaw for somereason has been getting a bad rap.. a few fighters have left him as of late.. something must be up.. (But Shaw was right if he said it.. Take the Fight in Canada Andre Dirrell...)

    Second I may laugh a lil with ya about Leon Lawson but im not gonna knock his hustle ...

    Showtime is ****ed.. they are going to lose Ward, Bute, Dirrell, they can keep Froch and Kessler cause HBO don't want them.. (maybe Froch for 1 fight with the right oppoennt) Ken Hersman know all these guys..

    Yeah, I was on the Bute train during his first year and a half as champion.

    Since then, he's done nothing....

    I remember talking about him with Lolenga Mock way back when... we both agreed that he was a very good boxer, and that he was going onto big things in the SMW division. Since then though, nothing but a dudd... NOTHING!

    I'm kind of worried about the situation. If Bute fights in 2 months, that means a contract has to be signed ****ing right now. Otherwise, it will be, again, a good but not top opponent. I'm sick of good but not top opponents. Interbox thought they had an agreement to fight Froch. They refused to fight Hopkins because they thought they could force Showtime to buy the Froch fight. Showtime stuck to their mind, Hopkins has now signed to face Dawson, Froch (and I understand him) says: I want some big money to fight Bute, since Showtime's 2 millions are not there, I'll take a little break and do a fight at home, Dirrell doesn't want to come to Montreal, even if he sells nothing in USA.

    If I were Interbox, I would sign Andre Dirrell right now, for a fight in USA. It's time to take a risk Make Lucian go outsise, lear how to promote a fight in USA (in association with "Dirrell whatever name promotion company" and get rid of the damn contract with Showtime.

    Ward will sign with HBO, I'm sure of that, and he'll face Bute with the big HBO money. That is the most logical way to see it. In the meantime Ward heals and fights an "easy" one, Bute faces Dirrell and Froch or Kessler. Interbox has to sign Dirrell right ****ing now.

    Though it takes two to tango.

    It's not because Pascal talks a lot that his promoter wants to do the fight. Now that Lemieux has lost twice, Gym's future rely on Pascal's shoulders. Pascal even said himself he wanted a couple of easy fight before facing Bute. It would be a good fight but I don't see it happening now.

    Get Hopkins, the Dawson fight hasn't been finalized yet (atleast as of yesterday anyways).

    Dirrell does not have the biggest brain amongst the boxers. I can only laugh when I imagine him controlling his destinee. Many fighters had and have what it takes to run a business but Dirrell? :rofl

    I thought it was. I agree with you. Get Hopkins then. He wants to fight in Canada and Showtime wants him. Interbox: stop wasting time, Bute's time and his fans' one.

    Bute and K2 is not a valid comparison.

    K2 kind of gets a pass since the HW talent pool is poor.

    Bute has a talent rich division.... and sadly hasnt faced any of them. :nono
