      Lucien Bute would fight everybody if they accepted peanuts and went to Canada or Romania.

      I want to see how willing Bute would be to go to the UK to face Froch for less than 50% or go to the USA to face Ward for less than 50%.

        first of all, Bute doesn't deserve less than 50%

        he is a bigger draw than both these guys

        and Bute was willing to travel to Danemark to fight Kessler, but the Sauerlands still declined to take the easier route to regaining a belt

          Can somebody tell me how Bute didn't get included in the Super Six cant remember if an explanation was given or if it was even spoken on and if he turned it down I wouldn't be surprised if he fought the loser anyway.

            Ward's the same size, if not a little taller, so size isn't an advantage for Froch. Maybe strength, but Ward is not weak in the least.

                That sounds right. IIRC he KOed Andrade and Miranda around that time then they dropped him cause he wasnt an Al Haymon fighter.

                    This is wrong, Bute didnt have a contract with HBO when the tournament started in 2009. First they spreaded rumors and lies say Bute turned the offer down, then Bute's team put out a statement saying that they were never invited. Showtime confirmed that Bute's team statement was true.
