He would need to start training now to make 160 for the rematch if not he need to move up and let go of the rematch, And with him reported to be at 192 a week after the Martinez fight i doubt he would want to go through losing weight to make the fight.
Would make a lot of sense for Bute to fight Pavlik. I think Pavlik has a bigger name so would be a good win for him. I don't know if Pavlik would go for it but maybe it would be a good pay day.
He might want to wait for some one like Froch or Abraham where he would have more of a chance of winning.
that woiuld be a great fight and somehow people regard Bute as the best at 168 eventhough I personally think Ward is the best at this particular moment but a Pavlik/Bute on HBO in Canada would be a tremendous success. The rematch would be even bigger and could be right in line for the 1st two losers of the super 6 to get put against the winnder of Pav/Bute.
Yeah, if he has to move up to super middle a fight like that might be his best bet. Then maybe he could get a fight with Froch or Abraham after the super 6.
I think Bute is to good for Pavlik right now. If he gets shut out again in a fight I think it would be bad at this point in his career right now.
