Hopefully they do fight, I'll offer a lifetime off bet with these Bute ******s. Even though I've been here since 2002. :smoke I'm more than sure Dirrell would be too much.
Both Andre's would! Havent't seen much of Anthony Dirrell, but I'm sure he's a vast step up from anything Bute fights. Bute defended against Mendy who had just got waxed by Sakio Bika, yet Dirrell will be a problem because he doesn't sell.. do you hear their excuses? ****ing laughable! If Robert Garcia gets Pavlik back in shape, I'm confident he'd shatter Butes glass jaw.
Who said it was an excuse? Once again, that fight is the one I think will end up happening next, how is "he doesn't sell" an excuse? God damn you're thick. Bute could have fought anybody in Romania, didn't matter - it was a non Showtime, mando, safe homecoming fight. If Bute fights a Brinkley like opponent next, he's going down the barrel in Montreal. The media will rip him another one, not withstanding the fans reaction. You and your pathetic double standards, who the **** has Anthony Dirrell ever fought to be a step up for Bute??!???!?
i meant DIRRELL but Yes Both Andre's would. If Pavlik gets in shape, Im pushing for a Pavlik-Froch. Not That I dont think a focused Pavlik Couldnt KO BUTE, But Froch-Pavlik is a great Style/action fight! but really. I hope he goes back to 160 and Smacks Chavez Jr around
Just a little friendly hazing for Protected Bute! If They Make Bute-Froch or even Bute - Dirrell. Ill never make fun of Bute again! I promise!:good
We were just about to get Bute-Froch, Showtime made an inexplicable ***** move, whether that's Hopkins pulling strings or patriotism kicking in. :huh
Shouldn't be a problem, the Dirrell brothers want this. Andre Dirrell would jump at the chance. Give him his rightful chance, lets do this. No more cherry picking Canadian hometown business from Bute and Interbox. Dirrell will end this once and for all.
I didnt read the details. Are they afraid it wont Sell??? Cause it would! Id like to see a Hopkins-Bute.
Showtime signed a three fight deal with Bute and his team, they've weaseled out of fighting the best for the two fights, they want him to face an American, whether it be Hopkins, the Dirrell brothers or Ward doesn't really matter, they want him to fight an American, NOW. Hopkins has called him out since the S6 started, Bute doesn't have the balls Pavlik has, Pavlik gave Hopkins a big fight, Bute has ran the other way, fighting Mendy,Magee and Brinkley, when Pascal and Hopkins has called him out time and time again.
They mention wanting an American, and they say Ward or Hopkins. Dirrell just fought on Dec 30th and was interviewed recently on OTR saying he thinks Bute is a protected but top fighter, and that he would take the fight. I believe Showtime didn't mention his name (to Hearn anyway) because a Bute-Dirrell fight is not the big showdown they're hoping Bute's last fight (per contract) to be.
it doesn't make him the most exciting because those fights can be made. he could fight king kong and he still wouldn't be exciting. how can anyone forget the disgrace of a show he put up against froch? and don't get me started on the abraham fight.
