    I'd go with Dawson but I can't say I've seen enough Bute...Bute reminds me of Calzaghe in a way...Dawson kinda fades late in fights...

    Chad has beaten more names...

      Without the slappage and bad hands... Lots more power too. Well, as far as I know Butes hands are fine and he throws punches crisp and clean as if he doesn't have any hand problems. I mean I know its popular for fighters to get some form of hand injuries during fights but Calzaghes hands are completely mangled up.

      I mean in earlier fights he threw crisper uppecuts and all types of other punches. In his later fights he throws his hands kind of in a spazing way but thats mainly because of his broken hands atleast I think...

So, by all means Calzaghe stepped up to the plate and fought an opponent lots said Calzaghe avoided and faked injuries to.
        I don't get the connection with you just wrote and what I said.














        I'm starting to think that you're a bit of a tard, don't read posts entirely or just can't comprehend what's written properly. Which is it?

I doubt Bute even has any speed-changes with 2 pounds he could be the same speed or faster depending how it affects him. I hardly doubt it would hurt him though.
          7 pounds not 2 pounds.(168-175) and thats just the weightclasses - if theres no catchweight
          Bute is a big SMW, he could easily fight at 175, but I dunno about his chin.
          Bad chad is just too young and hungry, but maybe the veterane have some tricks. Bhop is just crazy ahhaha

            Thats what I think about you, and you have alot of time on your hand when you can make those montages for BHOP. Oh, I noticed BHOP didn't say he took Calzaghes soul. Thats one soul he couldn't take even with his headbutts and excessive clinching.

                dawson is the tougher opponent, but hopkins is 45 years old.

                  Sure didn't fight like an old-man against Pavlik though.

                    Common Solider, you've been giving off-comments for a while now.

                    First you respond to a question that wasn't addressed to you and your long-winded, Stating-the-obvious-Response wasn't really warranted in other thread.

                    Then out of nowhere, randomly, you're posting pictures of American celebrities at a fight in which you're not sure if they may or may not have made their way to the UK to watch to European fighters fight.

                    I'm just picking up a bit of a weird wibe from ya. That's all.

                      At 45, his toughest opponent is probably ******** ***********.
