    i hear everyone talk about dirrell v bute / kessler v bute.

    the fite that should happen asap is dirrell v kessler. reason being there both coming of wins an they were both dropouts of the super six so there was a possibility for them to meet up ne way.

    i dont think dirrell or kessler can drop out of the tourney and dissapoint all the fans. then basically get rewarded for doing it by taking a shortcut pretty much by dropping out of the tourney n gettin str8 to the point with bute.

    bute fights the winner of the pav fite. kessler v dirrell

    Dirrell digs in deep to pull off a hard fought DQ

    Kessler had a genuine documented injury and was an active world champion who selflessly gave up his world title for the Super 6 tournament.
    Dirrell is a fighter that left the Super 6 claimimg since suffering a KO had trouble sleeping. With Dirrell many doubt he was genuinly KOd, I have read from another poster that he didnt suffer a concussion, and to my knowledge Dirrell was only seeking medical advice from his family doctor.
    I wouldnt like to say either way with Dirrell but read that he AND Ward hadnt started training when their fight was due to happen and that a venue hadnt been agreed and their fight was something like to months away from happening when Dirrell backed out. Dirrell was then talking of a comeback fight at a similar fight to when the Ward fight was due.

    So there is a big difference about who is the most deserving

    Dirrell should never get a big fight again.

    Kessler wouldnt be able to see Dirrells punches even before he lost his eye sight. You know, so the Euro's claim.

    Be interesting to see how Dirrell would respond to a hard punch. He didn't have a great deal of punch resistance to begin with, there'll be even less now. I see him fighting a very negative fight.

    Kessler would have a lot of trouble with Dirrells handspeed but if froch can beat him then Kessler takes it aswell. Kessler and froch's style gelled incredibly well but Kessler has a better defense and doesnt throw as wild shots like froch does. Kessler will take dirrell to a UD or eventually KO him if his punch resistance from the abraham "KO" takes effect.

    Dirrell looks like a prime Apollo Creed vs the Kessler from the Ward fight.

    Dirrell dies like Apollo Creed vs 2006 Kessler.

    :lol:

    Seriously though, at this point in time assuming Kessler will never be as sharp (re: stiff jab, perfectly timed & powerful rights, great stamina) as he's been in the past, Dirrell wins a fairly boring UD. He'd probably get tagged hard by Kessler a couple times in the early rounds, but I see Dirrell boxing circles around Kessler from the moment that happens.

    If Kessler pulls a huge round, which I would expect to be between the 4th and 8th, mid-round Kessler KO/TKO. Otherwise Dirrell takes it.

    Funny to see lots of Bute fans chime in on this one (dru, Drozzy bailey) but the second others mention Bute fighting anyone, they wet their vaginas.

    Im not a Bute fan or hater, just being non bias. Obviously you are a hater and cant take different views. I just noted the difference between Kessler and Dirrell and nothing about Bute even. You sad sad hater
