    :lol:

    Joppy is not a mandatory. He is the first gimme voluntary defence.

    Chose Joppy because he's known in the USA.

    Bute UD Taylor

    Pavlik - Bute is a tossup, I'm slightly leaning towards a Pavlik UD

    I admit, again, that I am trying to stir up some hype for this fight! It would be a great fight and good for boxing and for the winner, even for Taylor because he would establish himself as a real force at SMW.:deal

    However, would Taylor even step into the ring with Bute? Not sure he would, so I can say whatever I want, to be honest.:D

    Pavlik clearly doesn't need to. He is a huge star and has a lot of better options, including harder fights against Calzaghe, for example.

    Bute would win on both men. In each of his bouts , Bute's opponents doesn't know at the end where to hit. Bute is adjusting very well in a ring. Against Pavlik, who did not countered very well saturday, Bute would win by KO. I think Bute's style is perfect against Pavlik, like Calzaghe against Kessler.UD against Taylor, who has a better defense.

    Interesting...I thought Pavlik had a better chance against Bute than Taylor, because Bute is susceptible to that jab...:think
