    Ive heard talk of Pavlik vs Martinez and Bute as the undercard. I dont see that happening though.

    Super 6 owns this one unless they fiind a decent opponent for Bute.

    Maybe HBO will throw Bute on the undercard.

    I can see a split venue. Bute needs/wants to get some HBO recognition and the split venue will still allow for the money needed.

    HBO doesn't like the split venue deal. Costs them too much money. Not gonna say it wont happen, I just dont think they would do it unless it was a much bigger event.

    You're probably right. Of course Arum could always opt to do one location. I just don't see Bute on an under card any other way. Well, they might want to promote Pavlik/Arum. Hmmm.... What venue is close enough to Canada that would generate a good gate?

    NYC is close to Montreal

    Atlantic not so bad

    I would drive down for Martinez vs Pavlik with Bute on the undercard.

    In heartbeat. I know i wouldn't be alone either. We'd be at least 10 and probably more

    It would be a good card no doubt but it would have to do one hell of a gate along with the TV money to be viable I'd think. Pav and Bute will need paid. Martinez is worth a good penny I'm sure.
