Comments Thread For: Bute Says It's Not His Fault That Unifications Fell Out

[cupocity303]

How come that threads with Boxingscene's official articles get posted, nothing but incoherent, poor sentence structured nobs come out of the woodwork?

Did Kessler really turn down 3.5 million? Also if its a unification shouldn't both fighters be getting 50/50 or is that what 50/50 is? Kessler has a belt doesn't he?

kessler has no belt that's why he's fighting stieglitz

Ward and Froch are finishing up the tournament. Steiglitz is fighting Kessler. Bute can fight the winner of either later. Or if he feels slighted at 168, move up to 175. There's opponents for him. He's been content to protect his belt against lesser guys. Johnson is old, but at least he is still respectable. Bute should be able to handle him. Somewhere in the next year he'll have a chance to unify belts.

im pretty sure kessler would've made 3.5 m if he accepted but he preferred to take on stieglitz since it was an easier belt...

im a big fan of kessler but he disappointed me

Oh, I thought Froch had a belt and Kessler won it from him.

I don't blame Bute for these fights falling apart at all. And Im impressed with him for facing Johnson - a VERY high risk/low reward fight. If Bute can KO Johnson I will be very impressed.

Bute is a highly skilled fighter. . . in time he will show what he's truly capable of.

he had to give it up when he left the S6

Kessler ducked Bute for whatever reason, he was making more money than he is making now against stieglitz. He just chose the path of least resistance.

After Bute fights Johnson and Kessler KOs Stieglitz, they should unify the winner facing the winner of Ward vs Froch!!

Kessler is still the WBC champion emeritus. Meaning that he has the right to challenge for the title at anytime. I THINK that's how it works.
