    If he keeps on winning then Bute will be getting his pop first after the Super 6 IMHO.

    It even haappened in the days of one World title, Johnny Wilson was derided by most, and not considered the no.1 in the div', even whilst holding the title. And he' beat Mike O'Dowd, not Gonzalez.

    Substitute Wilson for Erdei (and Erdei isn't anywhere near WILSONS stature at the time!!!) and he can have his 'lineal champion' status, doesn't make him the no.1 We use our own eyes to see who is worthy of the no.1 spot in the division (when they're isn't a clear cut guy ahead of the pack) especially in the times of 'UBA Intercontinental Shiny Lego Uber Trinkets'

    Speaking of Gonzalez, he was hella durable. Overlooked win for Cloud this IMO, he was battering the man, who was far more experienced than him at the time (Cloud had fought absolutely no one IIRC)

    Bute has no right even being at number 3. That is where Kessler should be. I also think Kessler deserves a shot at the winner of the super six, not Lucian who should face the loser. Quite simply Bute has not fought anywhere near the level of opposition of Ward, Froch or Kessler, so how can he be, and have been ranked so highly. Utter bollocks!

    Regardless of whether he was lineal when Calzaghe won the ring belt he's not any more as he moved up to Cruiser and didn't fight at Light Heavyweight for a long time!
