    Pavlik fans...please make sure you distinguish the real Bute fans from the rest. There's only a few of us on the board and most like Kelly too. :thumbsup

    Any version of Bute is too much for Pavlik, even in his prime.

    I hope this fight is made. Screw Atlantic city. Quebec city should it be.

    That is where the biggest gate would be. I'm not sure if Bute's fans would travel like Pavlik's used to. I'm not sure Pavlik will get many to travel to AC. It will be interesting. It isn't just that he isn't champ or lost a few. The novelty factor has worn off. Still, lots of folk in this area like to make the trip to AC for other reasons. Kind of something to watch in the dynamics if this fight is made in AC.

    Bute is a no body who has fought no body. My money is on Kelly Pavlik to beat the hype.

    Isn't it late for fighting Bute early November? If Pavlik wants a tune up, Bute may end fighting Glen Johnson because he has to fight near the super 6 finale, to have a shot at the winner.

    There are too many comments to quote.... Pavlik is as Tough as they come. He has fought better fighters than BUTE. Pavlik would be a STEP UP for BUTE.

    **** Quebec City... BUTE is Obviously Protected There. AC would be nice, but, Vegas is where is should be.

    People say all this bull**** about BUTE and his body shots(which they are wicked) bute, How many times has PAVLIK crippled Someone with a "LAZY LOOKING, SLOW THROWING, 1-2 combo??? He hits as hard as anyone from 160-168 no doubt!

    I would not want to fight Pavlik, Why??? cause he has nothing to lose from here on out! A big Payday with BUTE would be fine, but dont think he Wont GIVE it his all!
