    Just watched the last few rounds of Bute v Bika and it made me wonder how a Calzaghe v Bute fight would have turned out. Any opinions?

    Bute didn't like the pressure put on him by Andrade and even though Calzaghe has no power i can see him outworking and swarming Bute to a clear UD.

    Bute's nuthugger: Bute would easily beat Calzaghe.
    Calzaghettes: Joe would ko Bute early.

    Me?

    CLose fight with Calzaghe being a bit too much (they have a similar style but Calz is more active).

    Calzaghe close but clear UD.

    I don't think it would be very close, Calzaghe would get a clear UD

    No disrespect to Bute but that's 100% true.

    Calzaghe destroys Bute possibly by late TKO or UD.

    hahaha yeah I know he looks like he's wearing a fat suit or something. I think he's slimmed down a lot since then though.

    117-111 across the board for Calzaghe.

    Styles make fights Calzaghe dominates Bute though excessive feigning but if people want further evidence who honestly believes Kessler would lose to Bute because I fancy a chuckle :D

    Calzaghe would be to much for Bute, even if Bute got pretty good skill, now imagine what Calzaghe would do to Froch...:yikes...another Calzaghe Lacy all the way.

    Now waiting for the charge....:yep
