    Peter Quillan turned down a world title opportunity.

    Lucian Bute is the most avoided fighter in boxing. He's been ducked by Mikkel Kessler, Robert Stieglitz, Peter Quillan, and others.

    But the old Road Warrior, Glen Johnson, has the courage to fight him.

      Bute has been accused of lowballing Pavlik, Kessler and Johnson (in the beginning). Turning down a lowball is not ducking.

      Bute himself however has on several occasions ducked Pascal. He claimed weight was the issue. Just as Quillin does now. Sam,e standard for everyone please.

        True, instead Quillan will be sparring with a SMW...

          Peter Quillin's manager has a gameplan and they follow it to the T. Bute and 168 was not part of that plan. Quillin I'm sure would fight anyone but he trusts his manager.

                It's true, but Pascal lost to Froch and he's not comfortable at that Bute's weight, he's bigger than Bute ( in person you would never believe that they were in the same division ). Bute doesn't want to fight in LHW now, he didn't like the fact that he was not invited in the S6. I can understand that, if he wins his fight against the S6 winner, then he might fight Pascal. Unfortunately for Pascal, Bute has more skills than him and i don't think it's a good move.

                Quilling had a chance, like Pascal had. Pascal took the chance and became a WC. Then he fought the P4P Dawson and a legend twice...

                    respect glen johnson for fighting him! also for people saying bute ducked pascal lmao get your facts straight bute said way before the talk about him and a pascal fight that he wants to stay at SMW for now and has no intention of going up to the lhw.

                    bute would destroy pascal harder than b hop did.
