Ward to Dirrell: "Kessler or Bute you got them."

That fight was never even close, sadly. I remember the day it was cancelled, literally hours before, I made a thread asking why no date had been announced, no venue and neither fighter was in camp, despite Abraham and Froch already being in training. Froch/Johnson doesn't have a date yet but both are training.

Just disgraceful.

 

Dirrell vs Kessler is the most likely though I doubt it happens, but Bute wont fight anyone who's someone so any fight involving him with a big name is not happening.

 

Dirrell vs Kessler, let's get it poppin. Dirrell would whoop either one of those guys but Bute probably don't want it, like someone else said he's just waiting on the super 6 winner to milk a big payday, he doesn't wanna risk taking a L.

 

saying you'll fight the best while the most meaningful tournament in the division is happening around you is a different thing.

people always defend lower profile fighters who 'call out' fighters who are taking more chances in their career - it's always the way and it always will be

 

Andre Dirrell is gay as hell

 

Some people dont want to acknowledge the fact that Andre dirrell is one of the best supermiddleweights in the world and is a threat to any fighter at 168

 

I agree but i cant wait til he proves it. another young guy with ALOT of potential. going to be interesting

 

yes dirrell is a reel threat to any supermiddle weight. but hes always complaining actin like the ring is full of banana peels .

if he fights ne one he should fight kessler since he was in the supersix as well.

no way kessler and dirrell can ho

 

I think you're wrong. Bute is calling people that are now available: Kessler and Dirrell, Johnson or Froch in a couple of months. Anyway, Bute is not a lower profile fighter. If he was, Showtime wouldn't have signed him, especially when their tournament is going on. In fact, the tournament was beginning to look ridiculous and signing Bute gave it some credibility back: at the end, we'll know who is the best SMW.

 

I voted for Dirrell-Bute because all Kessler talked about is a fight against the super 6 winner. He then sent a contract to Stieglitz while Bute is available and willing ro fight him. We can understand that he may want at least one tune up fight. If Bute is too strong for a come back fight, it's the same thing for Dirrell.

When Dirrell talked (very shortly) about his future, he didn't mention a tune up fight and seems to be very confident. If Dirrell wants the fight, it's on. The winner then takes Kessler, and everything is set up for a super fight for the SMW crown.

 

He whupped Froch and Abraham

 

Pussies should just fight each other.

 

Not this shite again.
