Comments Thread For: Lucian Bute, Kelly Pavlik Could Be on a Collision Course

Bute's a fraud, Pavlik should win.

Get over what? The facts? As soon as Goosen/Williams saw that Pavlik's hand was okay, they ran away and fought cintron. That is a fact.

How can poeple think that the best 168 pounder would loose against a guy that was seriously beaten by a 154 pounder. Pavlik has nothing to do in the same ring as Bute except to get the check.

No way he will survive to that incredible uppercut of Bute.

Won't be much different than Bute-Andrade. Maybe Pavlik can pull an upset a la Bute-Andrade I.

With that said, Bute is nowhere near the best 168 pounder in the world.

As shown by the attendance the Canadian fans obviously weren't too impressed with the choice of opponent this time around.

Kelly Pavlik would certainly be a better fight for Bute than Jesse Brinkley.

Bute keeps fighting bums in his hometown , crowd aint gunna come out n support him.
Cant wait for Bute-Pavlik to happen , will be a great fight

compared to bute at 168 pavlik is a bum

they'll fight in bute's hometown

sounds like bidness as usual to me



i think he's in way over his head if he thinks he can become a champion at 168 against the likes of Ward or Bute

I would never put pavlik in with bute. that would be a disaster for pavlik. he can't even beat a blown up sergio martinez.

What people tend to forget in the Bute-Andrade I fight is that Andrade ate a lot of leather in the first 11 rounds. I'm not sure any other guy around that weight can get beat up that bad and still stand. I know Pavlik has a good chin, but I'm not sure he can eat everything Bute throws at him in order to apply constant pressure.

Bute and pavlik are just not in the same class.
I predict that another american icone will go down after , jones jr,taylor,dawson and next pavlik and hopkins.
We will have to look outside of usa for the best boxing.
Bute is the best 168.

[antrob]

I still wouldn't mine seeing this fight.
