Thing is, mate, anyway can submit an article for the ESB homepage. You could if you wanted to. It's no different to any other journalist- they all have opinions like anyone else and you don't have to agree with them. As far as this match-up is concerned- the IBF mandated it. Bute had no choice but to take the fight. I agree that it sucks ass but those are the politics within our sport that we all have to live with. I still think Bute-Andrade II is a good fight although it is second in terms of prestige to a fight with Froch or Kessler. If you wanna blame someone then blame the IBF.
How can ayone say that the fight is trash when their last fight was mired in controversy? It's not like Bute is choosing a tomato can to fight, he is taking on a guy who arguably has the best chin in all of boxing and whom nearly knocked him out the last time.
It's a good fight and I was looking for a Froch-Bute unification rather than this but that article is a joke, if you're gonna write an article, at least attempt to appear objective and not biased as hell. "Bute has a considerably smaller chance of losing to Froch" ... what a clown, how do you back that statement as anything but biased opinion?
people would ***** that he was avoiding andrade if he fought froch. when he fights andrade, they ***** he's avoiding froch. should he fight allan green to make everyone happy?
it honestly doesnt matter who he fights. he wil lose eventually. he doesnt have the haert and skill to be the best. but he is def a great fighter. just not the best of the best
Andrade II is a good fight. Kessler and Froch may be bigger, but Bute needs to give Andrade his due shot first, before Bute looks at the elite (if he beats Andrade).
exactly. **** how many fights has bute had?? he's working his way up. if he fought kessler now he'd lose. when he fights froch, it will be that much bigger cause he'll be that much better and well known let him build up some experience against world class opposition before sending him against ****ing the best in the division.
Duh..... Buy a clue, cos you aint got a f*cker. He is a world champion, so in theory he is world class :nut He's got bigger wins than Froch according to all his fans on here and has been champion now for 2 years !! He is a fake.
well i'm certainly dissapointed i don't have a ****er...whatever the **** that means. world champion doesn't mean world class. You said he's a fake and you argue he's world class. I'm confused about what your point is. I think though we're saying the same thing. He's an alphabet titlist with great skills who needs to face some more top 10 competition before he takes on the top 2 in the division.
His next fight is a good one, Andrade deserves a rematch after the outcome of the first which many believed was controversial. A fight with Froch will eventually happen.
