Comments Thread For: Canadian Bombshell: Lucian Bute Inks With Al Haymon

[AP♠]

Next stop new arena, new cast team, own sanction bodies, own beer sponsors, while Oscar does the talk to talk Haymon is on that walk to walk.

Why? To feed him to Stevenson? Or one of the Dirrells?

Honestly I think a Dirrell. But the bottom line is Bute is a draw in Montreal, if Bute fights B list fighters there he can still make a career there and Haymon makes money. Its a win-win.

You could be right. Maybe Anthony. Andre is in line to meet DeGale later this year and I can see Haymon wanting to set that up. He's got so many pieces right now it's hard to figure out what direction he's going in.

Hard to believe this guy was once 30-0 and had made 9 title defences. His record has some good names, but he was very well matched and until he left his comfort zone and ran into THE COBRA! At 35 his best days are behind him, a big money maker against Stevenson looms but his recent inactivity shows there probably isn't much left in the tank.

Well we know who Stevenson is fighting next
I hope Bute still isn't afraid to get punched by then, but Froch ruined him

While oscar continues to hate while d****d in stocking n heels Haymon just continues to make moves.

QFT...

Living in Montreal area, I can tell that Lucian is no more see as major player on the boxing scene, even local. People wishes him the best but most of us think he's done. He will never face Stevenson, Beterbiev or any big puncher...
