    Is he a new Mundine or Ottke?
    time will tell..

    like panda said he indeed has had plenty of opportunities...but kessler has never publicly called him out (u can correct me if panda's wrong)

      He's another Ottke... at least Mundine has had the balls to travel.

      Bute will never get a big fight because he will arrogantly believe that guys like Ward who earned their titles in the ring against the best fighters in the world should travel to Montreal for the honor of fighting him.

        does bute duck these guys? not completely sure...we'll know come 2011
        I was going to mention that, Froch was willing to go to Canada according to Hennessy.

          you're not wrong at all, Kessler has never ever called out Bute

          so saying Bute ducked Kessler is one hell of a joke

          Bat has his own fantasies, you know...

            If they get it on, I hope Pavlik knocks Bute spark out!

              actually, Bute was ringside for Froch-Taylor

              I believe they couldn't agree on the money if I recall right

              so yes, Bute was definitely interested in a unification

                Not true. After Calzaghe Kessler couldnt get a fight and Bute was one of several he asked to fiight him.

                Here in this thread we can clearly see Bute wanting none of Kessler instead looking for other champions (Balszay and Froch at that time). Kessler? No merci.

                  Another example of Bute content to milk his title against the Joppy's and Brinkley's of the world instead of stepping up.

                    Bute is as overrated as a fighter can get. His best win is over edison miranda.
