Nard's not going anywhere near the depth of the SMW div right now.
I think bute could take hop now!
Hence why he won't go near the SMW division.Quote:

Yeah, Vlad's an awesome idea. End his career it would.Quote:

Well, according to ESPN.com, Golden Boy Promotion CEO, Richard Schaefer, wants to make a fight between Bernard Hopkins and Lucian Bute at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal. He thinks it would sell 50,000 tickets.
I assume it would be at 175? More fodder for those Hopkins detractors who say he makes smaller fighters come up in weight to fight him I guess.Quote:

Such fight would be like the biggest boxing event in Montreal since the Duran-Leonard, which happened at the Stadium as well. I thought HBO was all gun ho for a Pavlik-Bute, perhaps (if Bute wins) that it could happen after.Quote:
