Comments Thread For: Super Seventh: Bute Clears the Way for Kessler

[SirTomJones]

Bute - Kessler.

Winner against Froch.

Loser fights Arbaham.

Sounds good that does.

I dont think the road is clear for Bute vs. Kessler. Bute still has mandatory obligations and Kessler will have a fight before Bute so this fight is on for late this year at the earliest.

Did you get a chance to see the fight, Bat? Kessler was doing some color commentary and said he had hoped to do some light sparring in around 3 weeks or so.

As far as Bute's mando, I hope it's not Jean Paul Mendy which it probably is, and Mendy would be ko'ed in 3 or so.

I think it all depends more on Kessler's rehab than anything else, which could be a while.

And I can definitely see Kessler taking a tune up before Bute.

I saw the youtube clips this morning.

Yeah Kessler takes a tune-up first. I don't know if that is neccesary TBH. He's a seasoned pro so a good tough camp should make sure if his eye can hold up.

Bute's mando is Mendy and he plants Mendy. Kessler will take a tune-up...no problem there.

Path is clear.

And a great fight it could be.

Kessler has been told he would fight the winner of the super 6 and now Bute has been told the same thing ...

This would become an elimination matchup to face the champion.

I have strong faith in Bute's ability to fight anyone but maybe I'm a little blinsided since I'm from Montreal.

Can't wait for those fights to come, great boxing expected

Bute vs Anybody in the Super Six would be awesome fights.. What worries me is the fights being in Canada, "THE LAND OF ROBBERY DECISIONS!" Kessler can def drop maybe even KO Bute but he might just get a 20count again!!

The fight should be in Denmark.

Based on past Montreal history, Kessler needs to KO Bute twice to get the draw.

I wasn't thrilled with Kessler's performance commentating, probably be better in Danish I would guess (or hope))
