    Kessler said that he should have green light for sparring in about 3 weeks from now. And for his own good, I hope he's 100% before he steps in the ring again, life is more than boxing and he already made enough $$$ to take it easy.

    I was speaking hypothetically obviously. Sorry, I'll keep it simple for you in future.:yep

    Like I said. It doesn't matter if the fight made 10x more in Denmark. Bute simply refuses to leave the Bell Centre or seek out any world-class challenger. I know this, the whole world knows this, and deep down I think you know it too.

    The words of Ottke, Calzaghe, Hopkins, Jones and Ward...........

    I fear for the Bute vs. Kessler fight. If the fight will be in Denmark, Kessler chances of winning will increas big time - but in the same time, i wouldn't rate the victory the same...................

    do you understand what i am all about...............?

    Hard to beleive that you could be so much of a hater, what happend to you, were you **** by a Romanian or you just won't admit the value of Bute untill he clears the division???? Showtime are not giving him 6 M $ to play around the bush, he will face the best SMW. I know it takes forever to happend even I get sick of seeing less than top 5 guys fighting Bute, I want the best opponents and that is the reason I stayed home Saturday to watch the fight instead of going live. If Showtime decides he will fight in the US or in Denmark or Gremany, he has no choice, and he's willing to go were the money is, wouldn't you?

    Of course you were. That's what people with neither facts nor proof do. They talk **** (hypothetically) ;).

    Fact: Bute never fought someone who could draw more than him.
    Hypothesis: Kessler will draw more than him.
    Fact: We don't know who might draw more.

    You talk ****. I know this, the whole world knows this, and deep down I think you know it too.

    Ward gets alot Oakland/East Bay crowd of people that go and follow him to spend the coin to watch the fights.....I would imagine that the opponents are swayed by the larger portion of the purse splits by the Ward following.

    Ward isnt bringing in crowds as big as Kessler or Abraham, and Ward is the only original S6 fighter to have found a way to not travel and prove himself away like the others

    It's easy to assume that a home fight is not as demanding and challenging as a fight away from the confort zone. It's also easy to figure the home guy could benefit from a favorable decision from the judges. On that department, Bute always fights at home, so, he gets less credit for his wins than if he was fighting top 5 guys in their hometown. I understand that as a fact, thing is, what better options did Bute have until he faces guys from S6? And, by the way, most of his recent wins were by KO or TKO, so no judges involved...

    Yes. I won't rate Bute as a world class fighter until he beats a world class fighter.

    That's hating?:lol::rofl:patsch

    The hating you provide in every threads you write about Bute is common knowledge on ESB, don't play with me, even if Bute is not yet proven, it doesn't mean he is not worthy of respect as a top dog at SMW.

    Not really?

    Calzaghe travelled

    Calzaghe fought away in title fights.
    In fact Kessler fought away in world title fights in Austalia, Wales, America and Germany how different is that to Calzaghe fighting away in world title fights in America, Germany, Denmark, America again and then you could add he was away in England and Scotland

    As noted this is not knew as Byron Mitchell the 2 time WBA SMW champ fought away to Calzaghe (Wales), away in a unification to Ottke (Germany) and away to Girard (France) yet gets little respect

    Calzaghe was willing to go to Denmark to fight Kessler, read below

    Yeah Dirrell's brain has made a remarkable recovery. A medical wonder for sure.


    Kessler is to start sparring in a couple of weeks. His right eye is not 100% yet. Basically the first two weeks of sparring decides if his career continues. If the sparring results in double vision again careers over.

    We'll have to keep our fingers crossed. No amount of dollars is worth losing your health for.

    You can perhaps make a case for Calzaghe travelling to his opponents backyard twice: Veit and Hopkins. But you'll still have a hard time defending your case. Veit was never a big name in Germany and I dont think the crowd was particulaly partisan in the Hopkins fight.

    Stating facts can't be hating. Bute has fought no one and is a home town Harry. It wouldn't be much of a problem if he didn't have a legion of deluded fan boys on ESB saying he's something he's not. It's only natural to refute what you deluded idiots say when I see you spewing your garbage every single day.

    Veit was an accomplished top 10 world rated fighter when Calzaghe travelled and fought him a 2nd time. As for Hopkins there is a big case for Calzaghe as he was fighting away, in a new weight division with 3 American judges and Cortez as ref against the P4P #3.
    You could note Mundine isnt liked in Australia by many
