    Kessler's eye is messed up and if he does not fight again, that would suck but it might be the best thing for him. Dirrell, I don't think would fight Bute atleast not now, he would get ko'd being off for so long.

    I think you will see Bute/Pavlik this year. He will have to wait until next year to beat Ward/Froch.

    A title fight in Romania,thats a whole lot of pick pockets in one place at the same time.

    Neither fight surprises me The Pavlik one is a no brainer if both men win there next fights Pavlik is still very marketable States side.

    Bute would ruin Pavlik. Bute fights similar to Sergio Martinez, except that he is a lot bigger and hits a lot harder. Pavlik gets hit too much and would get KOed.

    I'd be willing to bet you that Jack Loew wouldn't let Pavlik get anywhere near Bute.

    Mcgee was a mandatory fight why does he have to fight 2 back to back?

    Kessler wants a tune up first does he not?

    Kessler was present at the Holyfield vs. Nielsen show.
    Kessler said, that he will make at statement Monday, and it will be a good one..............Hopefully he is ready to take at tune up fight, and that Bute vs. Kessler could be on in the fall......:bbb

    Bute is nothing like Martinez, really.

    I don't think Pavlik will fight Bute this year, Steiglitz (spelling) or Froch are far more likely.

    Pavlik needs another win before he looks at Bute. Kelly got the win last night over a fighter who was probably better than expected, but I think he needs one more before he goes after a top guy.

    Mcgee wasn't a mandatory fight. It was the best fighter that Showtime found for Bute to fight outside S6.

    Showtime is not a promotor and Magee was not the best.
