    also it will generate alot of interest and probably Bute biggest payday so far. I think Bute has alot to gain in this fight.

    I'm sure they would accept

    How come he doesn't call out Bad Chad Dawson? Bute is not even in the top 10 P4P. Let's see him fight dawson next then retire.

    Pavlik is not exactly technical, he is just strong (for the weight).

    Bute is much more of a technical fighter - and Hopkins would go up A LOT in my oppinion if he beats Bute fair and square.

    Hopkins. The guy headbutts everybody, and at this point can not even fight a full 12 rounds, so he has to fake shot to catch his breath. He is not beating somebody like Bute fair and square.

    As many have said though, its all just avoiding the best fighter in his weight division, Dawson.

    I know - which is why I will be surprised if he beats Bute.

    I think Bute would win via UD about 8-4. It's possible Bute could make Hopkins look like a 45 year old man. Bad matchup for Hopkins IMO. He needs to fight someone with slower hand speed and a more predictable style.

    I'm interested in any fight that will help Bute make a name for himself in the USA.

    Just STFU you obnoxious turd, and listen for a change - you might actually learn something.
