I'm a fan of Glen Johnson, but I think it's time for him retire.

I'm a big fan of Johnson and I've actually picked him to get knocked out in his last two fights, but I think he'd give Bute all he could handle. He's a bigger, stronger, smarter version of Andrade and he specializes in wearing his opponents down.

I'd love to see this fight (and finally get to see Bute step up in class).

I think Johnson would put up a better fight than the shot Pavlik

Yeah, but watching Pavlik get knocked out would be a lot of fun.

Damn, Johnson has lost two world title challenges in his last three fights. Boxingbantz will go mad when he sees this...

Oh I never said I wouldn't wanna see Bute-Pavlik

I'll withhold judgment until after this weekend, but just from Pavlik's last fight, I don't think Pavlik will be as effective at 168 as he was at 160.

Johnsons a toughnut but why not fight kessler, then (if he wins?!) the super six winner?! bout time he got in with the best in the division

It's a shame Kessler opted for Stieglitz instead of Bute. That fight would have been a good one although I suspect Bute wins. I'd like to see Bute beat Pavlik in November and then fight Kessler in the winter of 2012.

I'mt just not convinced Pavlik can perform on the level of the top guys at 168.

Why ? he gave a very good account of himself vs Carl Froch, and was very close to beating Tavoris Cloud.

Because he isn't good enough to win at the elite/championship level, and at this point he's become a stepping stone for the best fighters. Like I said, I've been a longtime fan of GJ, I just think it's time for him to hang 'um up.

He's always mostly been like that though, thats why he's lost alot of close decision's. Because he isn't flashy and most of his work is workman like.

It's not because he needs to hang em up, i mean he basically fought on even terms with Tavoris Cloud, Chad Dawson 1, there two top Light Heavyweights.

And he gave a very good account of himself vs Carl Froch, especially considering he hadn't fought at Super Middleweight in years.

I don't think he's showed any real sign's that he needs to hang em up, he always entertains me. And he obviously loves what he's doing, so let the guy carry on he's genuine class act.

Not a bad fight until the S6 raps up. I would much rather see Bute-Kessler though. I would expect Johnson to give a good performance but end up losing in a decision.

Yeah but sadly, Kessler have asked the WBO to put him as the Title challenger for the belt. It pissed me off too because I want Lucian to take on someone like him, but we can only blame Kessler for this one.

Well apparently it'll be Pavlik, the Press in Canada just announced that Pavlik vs Bute was a done deal for november, either in Quebec or Montreal: Cano - Sports - Bute affrontera Pavlik au Qubec
