I'm more of a bute fan but Dirrell fights weird. He had his man hurt and he end up hurting his opponent and kept back peddling... Why??? Dirrell didn't look tired or hurt in the fight yet when he landed some hard shots on his opponent he backed off. This is boxing, this is a sport where you're suppose to beat the **** out of your opponent. But the way Dirrell fights is as if he holds back at times.

I don't know who would win, but I know who would lose: the fans. What a snoozer that fight would be. Bute doesn't like to be the aggressor, but Dirrell isn't even remotely willing to be. Bute will come forward but be tentative and Dirrell won't do ****. Zzzzz. Let us avoid that matchup unless it is necessary.

BUTE BY KO??? are you guys retarted? Bute can not handle PRESSURE and dirrell has plenty of that. Bute is a joke, just another hype job with a belt that does not belong to him.

Bute schooled Sakio Bika, destroyed Zuniga, dominated Andrade, KO'd Joppy and demolished Berrio.

Who has Dirrell beat?

Dirrell isn't a pressure fighter you idiot, he ran like a coward in the Stevens fight and he was running from the much smaller Oganov, bull**** stoppage in that fight.

would be a great fight. I'm really not sure, But I'll probably have to with Bute simple because of his resume. He has fought decent opponets while Dirrell has fought mainly bums. Dirrell hands are very fast, while Bute has more power and is pretty quick handed himself. At this point BUTE on points.

Bute by way of murder.

Dirrell is so untested. Bute has fought all quality fighters since owning Bika. This fight would be a little more one-sided then the Zuniga fight. But Dirrell-Zuniga is a decent matchup.
