There are a lot of posters on this site who excuse Bute's ducking of Pascal on the grounds that he is staying at 168 for the Super 6 winner.
But let's just say for one second that the Super 6 is over right now and Andre Ward is the winner.
What makes anybody in their right mind think that Bute is gonna leave Montreal to come to the United States to get his ass kicked by Ward?
What makes anyone think that Bute, after sitting around fighting bums for 5 years, has any right to even attempt to bring the fight to Montreal?
Why would Andre Ward, who has worked his ass off with 5 consecutive fights against the very best in the division, be willing to go out of his way to fight Bute who has sat around and done nothing to earn a shot at all the titles?
Why would Andre Ward even consider for 1 second going to a country where Marlon Wright screwed Librado Andrade out of a dramatic knockout win and where Canadian judge Jack Woodburn gave the final round of Dawson-Pascal to Pascal even though he was getting his ass kicked all over the ring?
I think people have gone nuts. Bute is never going to leave Montreal. By the same token Ward seems hesitant to leave Oakland... but it seems strange that the same people who cry about Ward not leaving the states seem to have no problem with Bute fighting only in Montreal.
Ward will have earned the title as Division's best when he wins the Super 6. There is no reason for him to make any concessions for a fight with Bute. Anyone who thinks Bute will leave Montreal to challenge himself... well you're nuts.
When Bute cries like a f@ggot about not wanting to leave Montreal Ward will just move up to 175 and beat up the guys like Pascal who Bute has been ducking.
