Would Lucian Bute have a higher chance of beating Joe Calzaghe or Mikkel Kessler?

    He KTFO Soliman who beat Bika hands down. And he shutout danny green who is a better fighter then Bika. So what is your logic there?

    Danny Green is no better then Bika. Soliman is thats true. Still putting Mundine as a sure win and definig him as a fighter a class above Bute is pure unfounded BS that calls for some more.

    I never said class above. I just think that Mundine could beat him based on recent form. Just my opinion.

    Sure, you are right, but remember, Bute suggested he could NOT beat Kessler yet and it's not just because HE says so that I believe him; I just think he is just being honest...and Lucian is, as we all know, not one to brag...HE doesn't talk himself up...but neither is he a shrinking violet...he doesn't put himself down either...I think he just calls it as he sees it and I agree with his honest assessment. But I don't think Bute thinks the gap between him and JC and Kessler is THAT big, even now.

    I have no doubt in my mind that Bute hopes one day to walk into the ring against the man he feels is the strongest in the division at the moment - and certainly will be the strongest in year or so: Kessler, with a good chance of beating him. He will be ready in 3-4 fights after Berrio if he keeps winning and learning.

    :good

    Perhaps you are right. But I think that when this fight happens, and I am sure it will happen - it just has to, Bute will come up on top. The difference in moral capacity will make the biggest difference here I think. :good

    This bet is likely to never be resolved

    I think I'm starting to become a Bute hater.
