Can someone tell why Bute has to Fight Outside Canada?

[BattlingNelson]

Yes! That's my project car.

Project? Does it run on nuke-fuel?

[BattlingNelson]

Thats total bull****!!! Kessler flat out ducked him to go fight a (easy, easy) fight for a title.

Pavlik drunk ass, got offered a good pay day and he wrongly refused it and now is crying to arum to get him a fight.

Stiglietz is no better than Magee

Sartison is another Mcgee level type fighter

The super 6 is tied up, so spare nme the he needs to fight better comp, he has fought whos best available.

Letss see if Kessler or the winner of the super 6 steps up to the plate.

How is it a duck when you are offered a ridiculously low purse? Does that mean that if Froch offered Bute 1K USD for a fight in Nottingham and Bute refused it is also considered a duck?

There are many ways to say that you don't want a fight. Lowballing is one of them.

[Mikhnienko]

Stieglitz flat out refused to fight Bute so I didn't forget him. The rest claimed lowball.

Well we know Pavlik was offered 1.3 Million so does that sound like a lowball to you?

WTF you expect Kessler to be offer? 5 million? lol
2 mills for Kessler to fight bute in Canada should be more than enough!!

Bute has not low ball anybody. Its just that fighters think because they are fighting a draw they should get more, when in fact the guy bringing the money is the other fighter. Same **** happends with Khan, since he makes 1mill guarantee in every fight, his opponents think they will get paid,as much or close, just because they are fighting him.

Considering Bute's got 2M from showtime + gate + overseas television + canadian ppv I must say that I don't think it's a good deal for Pavlik. Do you?

I believe Kessler gets close to 2M for Stieglitz and he got 2½M per s6 fight.

I'd say 4M would be close to what he's worth for Bute. Kessler and Palle made 8½M for Calzaghe (5M for Kessler's purse and 3½M for scandinavian PPV).

Pavlik should had accepted the fight. That was major money, for a guy who is a limbo right now. Probabli part of the overseas TV should had gone to him, but other than that, it was a fair deal

4M??? Calzaghe vs Bute was a HBO PPV fight.

Bute vs Kessler at this point is not an PPV fight that will get carried by any of the Us TV channels.

4mill for Bute 2 1/2 Mills for Kessler, split everything 60-40 for Bute and we have a fight I think!

[PACnPBFsuck]

He his the biggest draw at SMW, he draws 16K+ crowds everytime, so why is he have to come to the US and fight in a venue with 5K+ people for way less money?

I doesnt make sense to me.

And can people STFU already about Butes opposition, every top SMW was tied up to the Super 6 tournament, he fought the best opponents available at the moment.

You're not really tested, until you're out of your comfort zone. If Bute goes into a fight in Canada, he knows in his head that the opponent HAS to knock him out.

When he starts fighting people anywhere and everywhere like Froch, then i'll give him his props. Till then, i'm a skeptic like everybody else.

Why should Bute get more than Kessler when Bute's fighting at home? 60-40 would be reasonable if the visiting fighter got 60%.
