Andre Dirrell vs Lucian Bute

Tough match-up, but I pick Dirrell to win a close UD.

This fight wouldn't happen for at least two years so you definitely have the right to change your mind by then. thank you kind sir. Thread marked.

dirrell gives bute a beating worse than froch Not sure I understand this post? Did I miss dirrel giving froch a beating? Cuz nobody got a beating in that fight and I'm sure froch and bute didn't fight in the pros. Anyway. Right now I'll take dirrell. I think he will have fought more diverse styles and he can box ortho and southpaw. Plus he's faster and punches had enough. I reserve the right to change my prediction. I was very impressed with the Abraham fight and if dirrell keeps improving that much, he will be the best smw.

bute beats everyone in the super six .... and your conclusion is based on...??

tough to say, i would pick dirrell though.

Who would you pick? Bute would murder dirrell...

tough call since bute has never faced a good, skilled boxer at the pro level. bute's fast and skilled, but dirrell's just as skilled and faster. i think it'll come down to length. dirrell's got the advantage in that department. dirrell UD.

I don't think it's fair to compare him to these guys in the Super 6. All of their opponents have been or will be top notch on a consistent basis. BTW, Dirrell would be too quick. His speed is a problem for anybody at 168lbs.

Ummm. Undecided. Lolz. Dirrell and Bute (based on fight with AA and LA) performed well against plodding fighters. Dirrell would probably have a slight advantage in speed but Bute more than makes its up with more power. I'm leaning towards Bute at the moment. This would be a great fight if it ever happens.

Bute needs to stop fighting C level fighters. Exactly. Bute would murder Direll.
