    what fights would get to Bute more credit / respect from the boxing fans ??

    fights at SMW div. ( ward , kessler, Froch, Dirrel )

    or fights at LHW div. ( Hopkins,Pascal,Dawson )

    i did this poll because I think the s6 winner and the s6 loser won't fight with Bute ....... it will be a Froch , Ward vs Kessler triangle, from various reasons .... and Bute would be forced to move up at LHW to have some big fights ! ......

    I'd like to see him face either Froch or Kessler.

    Probably the loser of the super six final..


    But after such a fantastic shut out against Glen Johnson, who's only lost 16 times, last time out hopefully he takes it easy. He's definitely deserved a few easier world title defences back in his hometown of Montreal after all that travelling to Romania and Quebec City.

    Kessler or the winner of Froch vs Ward.
    TBH I would rather see him fight Dirrell than move up to LHW.

    I see Bute having it easy against Pascal and Hopkins. The Dawson fight might be intresting, but I would rather he beat the top guys at SM first.
    Yeah I consider Dirrell a top guy, I had him beating Froch and the only guy I think would be a clear favorite against Dirrell at SM would be Ward.

    i don't think we will see a Ward , Froch, or Kessler vs Bute fight in 2012 .

    Lucian will move up at LHW .

    easy ?? .... don't think it would be so easy for Bute to beat Hopkins / Pascal .

    Dawson has a good style , similar to Dirrel , almost but Dawson is above Dirrel as talent and skills IMO !

    I'm not so sure. Dawson has a reach advantage but I think Dirrell has the edge in speed and movement.Dawson also appears to have a problem staying active during rounds which just plain irritates me.
     
  15. Bute should fight the winner of the super 6 at least before moving up... Unless he's got a legit reason for moving up... (cant make weight).. Needs to come out of Canada and make a big fight happen..
