Dirrell would bust Bute's B level Balloon. Styles make fights and Dirrell's style would demolish Bute.
I agree Dirrell's style could cause Bute some problems, but what about the other 2 S6 participants who you said were > Bute ? :?
Dirrell's style would give bute some problems....but once Dirrell gets hit his mental fragility will get the best of him. He would run scared, he might faint dead......
Author Abraham's reputation far exceeds Bute's, by a long shot! Prior to the S6, many people were still believing the AA hype machine. :yep Bute has yet to face someone of Froch's qualifications, so why would Dirrell be afraid?
Arthur Abraham has a good reputation. At MW. As SMW he is clearly less competitive. Well, their belief system has received a big trauma when the real thing happened. So, in order to fix that, the most fair & straightforward way would be to organize a match Bute-Froch, wouldn't it?! Who is afraid of whom? OTOH, do you know for sure that (Andre) Dirrell is still in the business?! His last match was some 20 months ago, then he retired from S6, then he announced he's ok but he repeatedly postponed his tune up comeback match with Demers (see e.g. The date was first reported to be August 5, then August 19, and now apparently, September), then he announced at the beginning of October he’ll be back in the ring in late November against a top 20 contender, although not a dangerous fighter because this is a tune-up fight, now we're mid-November and there is still no opponent name on his schedule. I know he makes a lot of declarations for the press but these don't count at a practical level. Anyway, I think at this point Dirrell should be very careful with his own health, being not physically ready in a match against a tough opponent (like Bute or Froch) could be really deleterious to his state.
Haters have said Jhonson will walk through Bute's punches to land his own. But when he tasted that power, he decided to fight to not be KOed
Maybe so, but that just proved those people knew little about boxing. Those in the know, understood that Johnson as always been a very good consistent, journeyman. Now, he's a 42 yo version of that. People who say Bute has power used to say the same about Froch. Dirrell never seemed to hurt with his bout with Froch, but Froch sure seemed to be hurt several times by Dirrell. :yep
That journeyman won a world title and gave tough fights to several world class guys at LHW & SMW... Care to point out those 'several times' where Froch got genuinely rocked by Dirrell's shots? State rounds & times please. Froch brushed Dirrell's shots off all god damn night, but looked like a slow brawler in the process. Dirrell had a huge height & reach advantage over MW turtle AA, and refused to trade with Froch. Newsflash bud, Bute is now more proven than Dirrell at SMW, however you wanna look at it. :yep
Bute has always been more proven than Dirrell. Andre's career is in jepeordy right now. If he doesn't go back in the ring soon, he'll never be able to regain his boxing level. In fact, it may already be too late.
