    To be honest i dont know much about it, he has a wife and kid, but lives away from home in Berlin, traning under Wegner. Maybe someone know about the earnings at Sauerland.

    He is in a danish TV-program atm, challenging other sportstars. That seems a bit out of character for him, so maybe its for the money!?

    But this Bute fight is a HUGE opportunity for him and he whould be an idiot if he lets this slip away...A win and a Kessler fight in parken with millions in it is secured, or he could taunt Palle and go after Froch?

    Interesting that with the TV show:think
    Anyway....let's be real,he ain't gonna beat Bute altough I suspect he will reach a somewhat good potential by the time of the fight as he looked better recently.

    A prime Larsen would win in my oppinion, but today i agree Bute is the huge favorit, and not to scare you but tell me that we cant have a upset in Germany.

    Dont get me wrong a always want the right/best man to win...But it could, happen just as it did in Ottke vs Reid/Larsen

    Well in his prime it would be 50/50 altough I'd still favor Bute.
    Anyway I thought it's gonna be in Denmark,Germany being the scond option.Abd yes a robbery can happen but chances are Larsen will getstopped if not shutout.Recently the robberies have gone down.I was surprised they didn't **** Garay with Brahmer even tough it was pretty onesided.

    Mads Larsen has in Uli Wegner, adopted that deffencive borring style, Ottke also had. So im sure it will be close and borring and difficult to score...If Bute dosent comes forward, wich he dosent have to as the champion.

    I agree on most you wrote, except the favor Bute part:good

    Yes,I alsoe expect a boring one here....mostly why I ain't so excited about it.It isn't a fight to get excited about anyway.Bute starts slower anyway but we''ll see if Mads actually signs the contract.

    He has to sign, otherwise will his long struggle with Palle and his comeback be utterly useless, and he will be stamped as a coward by most people.

    In a week or so it will probably get solved completely.

    Larsen might be reluctant to sign the contract, as he probably thinks that a loss to Bute would **** up his chances against a huge payday for fighting Kessler.
    That´s my theory at least.
    I would sign If I were him. Chances like this don´t come around like this for a fighter like him. (No offence Mads, but you are getting old). He can only thank his promoter for this oportunity.

    He ain't getting the Kessler fight he wants so bad even if he beats Bute and Froch on the same night.
    If he doesn't sign soon Tsypko just might jump in.

    He hopes so. Every single interview I´ve seen with him on Danish Television he has been bad mouthing Kessler. It´s getting annoying.
    And I wouldn´t be surprised if Palle made the fight. The money would be really good.

    As long as Kessler dont have an opponent for the next fight, Larsen hope he's in the picture, cant really blame him for that.

    Of course not. But it would be a stupid reason for skipping the Bute fight!

    Hmm, The Andrade-Tsypko purse bid that was supposed to be held yesterday is postponed to Thusday. What does that mean? Does Larsen still want too much cash and is Sauerland thinking of chosing Tsypko right away to face Bute? We'll be fixed on Thusday I guess. I would prefer that. Bute faces Tsypko, Andrade faces Bika. Better than Bute-Larsen and Andrade-Tsypko IMO.

    It just gives Larsen more time to think about what a stupid move it would be to refuse the Bute fight.I think he willl sign after all and Andrade vs Tsypko will be for an eliminator.
