    Kessler know it, Bute and Ward are the real dudes in the division

    Just watch the fight, Andrade have his short under his arms and so he didnt land anything on the body. Second, he adjust with his trainer in the next fight, great fighter are better when they face a second time the same boxer as they adapt.

    Bute is an irrelevance

    Where's the numbers on what was offered to Bute to fight Kessler in Europe and what was the numbers offered to Kessler for the Montreal fight?

    Until we have both of these you're all just talking ****. For all we know what was offered to Bute could have been substantially less than what was offered to Kessler or vice versa in which case we can deem one a ducker or maybe they were relatively equal in which case we can determine that they're holding out for hometown advantage. Either way until we know what the offeres were we're all in the dark and this is just speculation from fanboys or haters of either fighter, not rational thinking boxing fans. Buncha detectives up in this ***** today lol

    "Joe Average" makes a random claim without saying where he read it or how much was offered....:huh Very legit..............................................

    I myself heard that Joe Calzaghe's making a comeback....but good luck finding out where I got that one...:hey

    Joe said: "I will beat all these lower caliber Super Middleweights if they have the balls to fight me at 175lbs..":deal

    Yeah it was definetely from www.madeupnews.com

    Sauerland has probably respectfully told Interbox that they are pursuing Stieglitz ATM, but that they'd be happy to do business on a later date.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Bute getting the same stick Calzaghe got and its understandable.

    Calzaghe stepped up and fought Lacy, Kessler, hopkins and showed his character in those fights(yeah lacy was a horrible boxer but even so Joe was backed to lose.)

    Will Bute have a similar flurrish at the end of his career to paper over the cracks?
    Seems the best way to keep your 0

    The only way Bute bouts to me will be considered legit, is if his Ref and Judges are all neutral like Hopkins-Pascal II anything else lends itself to outright corruption.

    Why do certain posters keep bringing up the first Andrade fight, and trying to pretend that the rematch didn't happen?
