    Bute and Andrade would be better opponent than half the fighters

    Seriously, after seeing tonight fights, there's no doubt in my mind that Bute would be a very good opponent, he could even go in final and maybe cause a surprise against Kessler.

    In my opinion, Kessler is the best SMW in the world, and Abraham is the hardest hitter in the tournament (so he always has the puncher's chance). But, I think that Bute would beat easily Carl Froch, Jermain Taylor,Andre Dirrel and he would win a good UD against Andre Ward.

    Carl Froch is over-estimated, he had difficulty to win against Jean Pascal(and even if he's world champion, Pascal is not that good as you guys think, I've followed his career since his start and he has a lot of flaws in his defense and offense).

    Jermain Taylor is shot.

    Andre Dirrell would run everywhere but Bute's speed would be too much for him. Same thing applies for Andre Ward.

    Against Arthur Abraham, he would outclass Abraham with his speed but like I said, you never know with King Abraham, he hits hard as f***.

    And against Kessler, I think it's the only fight where I see him as an under-dog, but it might be closer than I expect, because Bute would fight the same kind of fight than Calzaghe and he might give Kessler trouble.

    As for Andrade, he has the best chin P4P and he would give trouble to anybody there and I see him beat,Dirrell, Froch and Taylor.

    People wants to see Allan Green in the tournament who lost against Edison Miranda and who struggles against Tarvis Simms....

    Or Sakio Bika who lost a big UD against Bute....

    What do you guys think?

    I'd like to the see the winner of Bute-Andrade in there because JT is going to get seriously hurt sooner or later, he took the tourney too soon after the Froch fight.

    But, Showtime have confirmed that Allan Green is the first alternate if anyone drops out, and Butes team wanted nothing to do with the tourney.

      WELL,
      PLEASE
      PLEASE,
      ***** PLEASE!!
      PEOPLE
      :STOP WITH ANDRADE.

      THE ONLY TIMES I SAW ANDRADE FIGHTIN,HE LOST 12 ROUNDS TO KESSLER,AND TWELVE ROUNDS TO BUTE,DOESNT MATTER IF HE LANDED A KO BLOW AT THE END.

      12 ROUNDS
      12 ROUNDS.

      BIKA OR GREEN.
      BIKA was competitive against JC,was outboxed by Bute,but less than Andrade....
      GREEN is an exciting puncher...

        It ain't true that Bute's team doesn't want to go in the tourney, they had to give a mandatory defense to Andrade before going in the tournament. They thought that the best thing would be that he beat Andrade again to clear his mind of the controversial 12th round he had in his last fight.

        They mentioned that they were willing to come in the tournament if a fighter would abandon during the tournament.

        Like I mentioned, why getting Allan Green in the tournament, except that he's American, I don't see any other reasons, bring at least Sakio Bika who always make exciting fight..

            Andrades sucks and would only have a good fight with Froch, because he sucks too. If Andrade cant break you mentally you can outbox him.
