    at a catchweight of say 170 after Bhop finishes his buisness with Pascal and Bute with Magee? seems to me Bute beating Bhop would shut me and al his detractors the **** up?

    of course there is the matter of BHop faceing the winner of Dawson vs Diacaneau if he beats Pascal. I dont see why one of those four cant do battle with Bute instead of some can being wheeled in for Butes second or third defence on Show time.

    To be honest, I could only see a majorly lopsided hopkins win if this comes off soon

    Hopkins and GBP are tied at the hit whereas Bute has a 3-fights deal signed with Showtime. What's your strategy?

    I've always wanted to see a Bute - Bhop fight. If you ask me, Bhop was the only one available between the S6 start and his Pascal fight. I still don't understand why he hasn't chased Bhop like he did with Pavlik. Those same goals he persuaded with Pavlik (to get notoriety in US) could have been reached easily if he fought Bernard. This and Dawson were the only better fights he could have taken until now. ...Except that fighting Dawson would have been a great risk - low benefits fight.

    Don't write off Magee's chances all together.

    well lets just say barring a miracle Magee losing is a foregone conclusion its not fair but the general consenses no matter how much they try and puff up Magee ....just the sound of it Magee smells of opponent.
