how stupid can u be comparing GGG with Bute

I will post it when you post yours about Bute refusing to get in when spots opened up. I guess I will wait for a while because that issue have been discussed a lot here. Before new fighters were to get in, all the original teams had to agree. Ward's team didn't. Bute wanted in!

 

It's premature to put GGG in the same category as Bute for a few reasons:

1- He hasn't lost yet and has looked very dominant up to this point in his pro career.

2- He's been fighting in the States for quite some time now and hasn't been fighting exclusively out of his home country (although I commend Bute for finally getting out of Canada and taking the Froch fight in England. That was ballsy on his part.)

I'm not thrilled with GGG's level of competition up to this point, especially when you factor in his extensive amateur pedigree and that he's in his early 30's already. I figured he'd go the same route as Rigo since they're similar in amateur experience and age, but the guy hasn't lost yet and if he does get the fight against Chavez Jr, it'll be a big step in the right direction if he wins to get the bigger name fights down the road.

I actually favor him over Chavez. He's a technically sound boxer who always looks very comfortable in the ring and knows how to break down his opponents quite effectively. He's very impressive, he just needs to exhibit this against whatever top tier guys that would be open to fighting him.

 

Since those who wanted into the Super 6 were in, it's up to you to post where Bute and his team wanted in also.

What I asked you for was to validate your claim that Ward's team forced the Super 6 tournament to lock Bute out. Back up your BS. :deal

 

Pretty good for LHW. Hopkins has fought in Quebec lately and may again, vs LHW champ Stevenson

 

It's not just premature, it's super dumb, but why expect better from these sorry ass trolls. The guys have nothing in common.

 

Golovkin is totally superior to Bute. Golovkin will be fighting a cruiserweight on steroids next, with Chavez' judges and referee, but he will stop Chavez anyway...........

 

Are you really half Black/Korean? I am not picking some childish fight or setting you up for a lame joke, I am genuinely curious?

Fairly certain you posted this ethnic background last night but I just figured you were keeping in character and having some fun.

 

You happened to be right about Bute, but don't go tossing bets around based on "correlation of related data points." One of the first rules of science, statistics, and data analysis that I learned in college: correlation does not imply causation.

 

what's the correlation here?

 

You'd have to read SweetSciGuru's post to which I replied. He was the one correlating.

 

It was vastly discussed here. Bute signed anyway with Showtime during the S6 and his intention was to fight anyway the winner (Ward) as it was also the intention of Showtime. Showtime wanted Bute in, Bute wanted in and they signed a contract. Bute fought, if I remember with Magee and Johnson during the S6, on freaking Showtime. The S6 ended, but Ward still refused a fight with Bute.

 

No. The claim was that Ward's team (Goosen) some how were afraid of Bute and requested that Bute specifically be denied entry into the Super 6 tournament.
All I asked was for the link that confirms that claim.
Do you have a link that confirms it?

 

I was right about Bute well before his fight with Froch.
Not because of his origins or skin complexion, or anything subjective like that, but because of the pattern of inconsistencies in his career and level of talent displayed.
The pattern was very much consistent to the one FW used with his fighter, Joe Calzaghe.:yep

 

the difference is calzaghe was the man at 168
bute was just another guy with a belt

 

Bute had obvious flaws in his game that most people saw before Froch. He was always a B to B+ guy. Legit champion, nothing more. GGG maybe has had even slightly softer opposition than Bute during his campaign. The important difference is that GGG has fought all over the globe and never skipped a beat on his way up. On top of that he doesn't seem to have any flaws technically or physically. There really isn't anything specific to point at and call a flaw.
