from btalk:
I have been thinking about who I would like to fight, if I could make the fight, and the name that came to my mind, because he's a helluva fighter and a good challenge for me, is Lucian Bute. He's fighting Edison Miranda next. I think that would be a fight people would be interested in, especially in his hometown, which is righ outside the United States. My thing is that, they say there's no fights out there for Bernard Hopkins
GL: A fight with you and Bute would certainly be a moneymaker. He's a super middleweight champion, what's the lowest you can go to make the fight happen?
BH: "170 pounds.
smaller guy
white guy
unimpressive resume
chad dawson
And they call Floyd a cherry picker.
Hopkins should not be called the executioner,he should be called the opportunist cause all he does for the most part is pick on fighters that are willing to move up and fight him,pick on weak opposition for money, or pick on a fighter he knows is gonna be weight drained like in the Tarver fight.Comment

And would moving up 2 pounds hurt Bute, who fought half his career at 175? Or would moving down 5 pounds hurt bernard?
You guys are crazyComment

I think very highly of the super six but it isn't deep enough for a #1 to emerge yet. My Personal Opinion is Ward should be #1 after he beats Green (if he wins easy, or by KO, etc.) or after he beats dirrell. Bute would then be bumped to #2 for beating Miranda. As of right now I would say The Ring has it right as far as Bute being #1 (Froch or Ward should be #2, then dirrell, kessler)Comment
