I dont' care where Bute fights, being in Canada is irrelevant to me, that being said when he faces quality opposition he will get stopped. He makes himself easy to hit, he has proven that he doesn't handle adversity well, and I think he's a KO waiting to happen. I respect his hand speed, and power, I like his movement, but he's not as athletic as he thinks he is and this will ultimately lead to his demise. He fights like he's an "ultra" athlete, relative to a guy like Magee he is...but I believe Dirrell stops him, I believe Kessler beats him, I think Ward beats him by a wide Margin, I think he could give Froch some problems but simply based on styles as I think Froch is the better fighter.
Bailey. I dont think we disagree. What i am trying to say is: Kessler wanted to fight Calzaghe. Calzaghe was willing to fight Kessler, but only in Wales. Calzaghe wanted to fight Hopkins and Jones. They were willing to fight Calzaghe, but only at home. Bute is willing to fight Kessler, but only at home...... Why i dint mentioned Ward should be obviosly.............
How can you say Bute is willing to fight Kessler only at home, when he just said he is willing to fight Kessler in Vegas and in New York
Calzaghe was willing to go to Denmark to fight Kessler, read below http://www.pakpassion.net/ppforum/showthread.php?p=1112658 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/6725411.stm
Not if Top Rank, who has a deal with Interbox to put their fighters on undercard, offers more money and exposure with a fight with Pavlik. Kessler being the mandatory challenger to the IBF strap plus having the WBC emeritus and having the right to fight first the winner of the SUper Six would leave no choice to Bute to fight him before anyone else in autumn.
I dont understand the bolded bit. As for the other part well if Kessler beats the s6 winner (WBC champion) I'm sure Bute and Kessler would look for the big unification. Anyways it's academic. It really looks like Bute vs. Kessler is going to happen this autumn which should be pleasing to all fightfans.
So, Bute got hit on the button a couple of times by Magee. What is now his status on the glass jaw list? According to their theory, he should have been knocked out. After all, a glass jaw is a glass jaw, isn't it? Youhave it or not. Will the select club of the chincheckers put this in the "fail" column or will they continue to only talk about the 10% of the time they were right? So, Predator, show us a bit of you eternal lack of honesty. :nut
Bute said many times he would go anywhere. That includes Denmark. The haters obviously take the single quote where he forgot to mention Europe but that doesn't erase the others where he mentionned it. Anyway, Showtime has a word to say and they probably don't want the fight to be in Europe. On the scene, Sauerland says that Kessler comeback will be in Denmark because the fight against Bute won't be.
It does indeed look like the fight is heading to Montreal so allow me to envy you guys who have a possibility to go see it.
