it's a bit frustrating that we couldn't just have degale-jack right away. this card is a waste of time imo
I guess not every can be pleased. Who's to say Bute doesn't beat Badou ? That's a great fight in itself right there, as is DeGale vs Badou even in the event Badou loses to Bute.
Jack v Bute is a cracking fight. Bute impressed me against DeGale and I thought two of those cards were too wide. I scored it 115-113 for DeGale, I can see 116-112 but Bute made the rounds really competitive and showed terrific ring generalship in the rounds he did win.
I guess the way he held his ground against DeGale granted him that ... I really believe he can beat Jack on a good night ...
I wouldn't be surprised if he beat Jack either. If Groves has forced the fight, he would have beaten Jack too. Badou is the most mechanical fighter at smw. But Bute doesn't deserve a title shot after losing big fight after big fight.
