    If Stieglitz wont fight him, then he doesnt have many options. Pavlik wont want this fight after his loss. I dont think Hopkins will take it either.

    Wasn't there talk of Taylor coming back to boxing?

    That would just be cruel... Taylor need at least 1 year off and he probably should retire.

    If Dawson were to fight Bute, it would probably be next year in January, maybe this year in December. It all depends if Dawson beats Pascal, and Pascal will be a difficult opponent for Dawson.

    Dirrell won't be fighting a while, maybe Bute should fight him?

    It's either Dirrell or the IBF mandatory, then Dawson next year.

    Andre Ward isn't fighting Allen Green until June. Dirrell will be taking a long break before he fights Ward, he should consider fighting Bute while he's waiting.

    Exactly, and like I said in another tread; the chance of Dirrell beïng eliminated after the Ward fight is quite big. If he only loses a split decision against Ward it will be over for him.

    Bute vs Dirrell... make it so! :bbb

    There is absolutely no chance that Dirrell will be allowed to fight in between his scheduled super six fights. I simply don't believe this is a possibillity.
    Think of the trouble's it would cause for the tournament if he got injured.

    A young strong contender would be a refreshing change.
