    Bute is undoubtedly more deserving than all but Froch and Kessler. If i had to remove one it would be Dirrell, simply because he is the least proven. I am not particularly worried though, i am sure Andrade and Bute will collide with some of the super six contestants at some point down the road.

    None of them. I think it's an interesting mix of young and older fighters. Also, Dirrell is arguably the most talented fighter in the division. That doesn't mean he's going to win, but, again, it's interesting.

    Dirrell. Bute's beaten some really solid names defending his title - Dirrell's not beaten anyone. But even Dirrell deserves the opportunity to prove himself - just think Froch is too much, too soon.

    Dirrell. Least proven, least accomplished and least well known.

    I like it just as it is though!!!

    None of them. All the Super 6 fighters were prepared to fight the best in the world and prepared to travel to the other fells' home ground to do so. Bute wasn't, hence no invite

    I rip on Bute more than I should do he has a lot of skills (and amazing speed early) but they don't match his heart so I agree with this.

    David, stop telling that lie please. You can be pleased with the tournament as it is without bitching Bute. :p
