    Apparently it's likely to be the winner of Allan Green v. de Leon Jr. for Bute on the 19th of June. We should know more by next week.

    Another piece of news is that Bute had contracted a virus on the day of the weigh-in, but decided to go through with the fight against Zuniga. He might not have looked worse for wear in the ring, but he did look it today, during interviews.

    Some fight-fans might also remember that Bute admitted after the Berrio fight that he had fought him with an injury.

    Bute might be left out in the cold when Green chooses to fight the winner of Froch/taylor.. It's a much bigger fight.

    After his last fight against Joey Vegas, I think Miranda is out of the picture for a fight with Bute in june...

    Miranda is still a good tuneup for Bute

    Does Bute need a tune-up like Miranda, though?

    I thought Zuniga was the tune-up anyway...

    It's clearly specified in Bute's contract that his fights need to focus now on American broadcast exposure. Therefore, SHOWTIME's take is very important and I have a feeling it will be between :

    1- Edison Miranda

    or

    2- Allan Green

    It will not be Miranda after tody's fight...it wont be Green because I'm pretty sure he will fight the win of Froch / Taylor...
