Some seem to be discounting Pavlik, but I would think Bute is just as "unproven" as the current version of Pavlik. I give Bute the "athletic" advantage, but Pavlik has the experience advantage as he's been on this stage before. I think Pavlik is as good as or better than the Andrade that took Bute to the limit (actually won, but who's counting).
If Interbox was serious with having Kessler as first option then surely they'd have offered more than a pathetic 3M.
If you where Bute what would you do? 1: Take 3M for a Kessler-fight in Copenhagen or 2: Take 2½M for Stieglitz in Canada ???
we don't know for sure if it was 3M (maybe less, maybe more) like we don't know for sure Sauerland really send a counter offer; we have only speculations; but one thing i'm sure of: we'll see in the near future who was shitting, those things always come to the surface; for now any further disscussion won't reaveal the truth
first of all : - I would have not traveled to Denmark to the Kessler - Bouadla fight to negociate, talk **** about Kessler, and when back to Canada set up the Stieglitz fight. Yeah that's right !
I think is one thing to get your name in the press aka Hopkins and is another thing to travel over sees in order to make a fight , claim **** and take another path. Anyway, I don't give a ****. I even like Kessler. Just needed to make some order and clean this ESB forum ****.
Typical Kessler groupie! You are not even trying to make sense! 3M is more than enough for Kessler in a fight against Bute. I doubt Bute would get more.
