I think kessler would be a nice warm up fight. Knocking his face into retirement would be enough credibility to fight the winner of the SS.

As much as I like bute, him facing the winner of the tournament is kind of a slap in the face to the tournament winner.........

It sure is. Andre Ward nor Carl Froch should feel any need to fight Bute unless Lucian is leaving Canada and making concessions on the purse.

I see a Bute - Super 6 winner fight as being much more difficult to make than people are assuming.

Bute's promotor obviously loves feeding him easy opponents as the fights still generate good revenue for him without any type of risk. Putting him in with Ward or Froch is putting his meal ticket at risk and I expect Michel to be much more apprehensive about making the fight than he is letting on in the media.

A title belt means guaranteed big money, without that belt Bute would be nowhere near as valuable to Michel who doesn't have much of a stable to fall back on.

Bute isn't promoted by Michel, Pascal is.........................

Imo he needs a promoter that will match him with better opponents,he has talent but is wasting it fighting no hopers,id love to see him in with

pascal
ward
kessler
froch
dirrell
hopkins


hell id even like to see him fight jermain taylor

I don't think the promoter is the problem as far as matchmaking is concerned

they have already offered fights to :

Froch before super 6
Kessler
Stieglitz

either they offer too litttle money, or these guys are overpricing themselves

??Bute is a fighter he doesnt choose his fights,his promoter does

dont mind the clueless bads man

in numerous interviews bute said he wants to fight: froch, kessler, pavlik, ward etc

in an even earlier romanian interview he said he wants to unify the super middleweight division

bute will fight anyone anytime anywhere.

Bute has the talent to be something special hate to see promoters ruin his career
