    Hopkins is about money at this point. Bute in Canada earns him more money than Dawson anywhere on Earth.
    I was just going to say the same thing. Not to bring race into it either, but Americans who have never even heard of Bute will want to see this fight once they find out the guy is undefeated.

        Bute would most definately be favored, especially considering it would be in Canada.

        I don't know what's wrong with people, this board was going crazy about how good Bute is a couple months ago now he's garbage? lmao, I've been nothing but impressed with this guy and everyone agreed the winner of the super six should fight bute.

          watch that fight again and tell me bute beats hopkins...hell miranda for that matter..

          Hes there to be hit he only steps to the side after hes been hit a few times. He throws a sloppy right hook from the arm .
          I stopped reading right there, you obviously don't know what you're talking about.

            I never thought Bute was this great fighter. Still dont.

            I much rather see Hopkins vs. Dawson

              garbage is a bit sensationalist i admit


              but bute is a B- level fighter at best... when he steps up to the plate he will lose continually and then fight bums in canada until he retires.

                Hopkins needs to fight Dawson.
                Who gives hopkins more money? Answer honestly.

                  I think it's possible that Bute might be a better fighter than Dawson. But Dawson still does more for Hopkins' legacy. And if either fight goes down, it belongs on regular HBO.

                    If you look at Bute resume, Only Froch has a case to having a better resume at 168. Bute resume> Ward, Dirrell, AA, Green... And, not only does Bute have arguably the best resume at 168. He also had very good skills. People on here do nothing but downgrade fighters who they really are not familiar with. That is the problem.

                      Bute-Hopkins is a clear duck of Dawson.

                      Period.
