    It seems like so. What do you think, do you like Kessler or Dirrell first on the schedule?!

    I want him to fight Dirrell first to shut up the arguments that Bute can't deal with speed (re: potential Ward fight), have Kessler fight some average guy like Stieglitz, then see Bute-Kessler as a double header with the S6 final @ MSG in November. Winners to meet in March.

    :bbb

    Well, since Kessler want a tune up fight, why not Dirrell first?

    Lol...he whopped AA's ass, and if Bute thinks like you do, the people at Showtime are going to be pissed they signed dude, because he's going to get embarassed, Dirrell is to be taken seriously by anyone, dude is legit. Say what you want about the injury, but the bottom line is the guy is a helluva fighter and has shown this in the ring.

    Why? He's no doubt one of the three best fighters in this division, why would this be beneficial to you, the sport, or any fighters?

    Please note that Dirrell says he's ready for a comeback in 4 months. (His brain has apparently healed wtf )

    He doesn't mention Bute at all.

    Arguably, AA-Dirrell was Andre's "Bute-Andrade I". AA got to him in the end, Dirrell actually got hurt a couple of times.

    BTW I think Bute's firepower @ 168 > Abraham's. 160 is another story for AA. Accuracy/workrate are not even debatable.

    We all know how effective (!!!) Abraham is against SMW's, let alone quick southpaws. I wouldn't bank a Dirrell argument on a win over a demotivated/demoralized AA. Bute is fighting a southpaw next, at least he'll be working against southpaws in training. Could come into play for the selection of his next opponent --> Dirrell.

    The only thing that makes me think this goes 12 rounds is that Bute would have to come forward from the start. Not necessarily his comfort zone.
