Bute to Join Super Six? In talks to sign three fight deal with Showtime.

[MMASUX]

Bute and Showtime are a done deal. His first fight is probably going to be around March. Then they are going to try and get the winner of the Super Six some time mid-year. Should be a great fight who ever it is, i'm thinking it's going to be Ward.

Yeah I'm still in favour of the supersix. It makes fights happen. Although I'm not sure on Bute's involvement..? I'm not fussed either way but I think it would be smarter if he sat back then fought the winner (like James said) but then there's no gauntness that the fight could be made once the competitions over... Plus Bute's list of opponents is VERY slim outside of SS guys.

I read on espn that Showtime may have Bute fight Kessler in the middle of 2011 and then the winner of the SS. However, he is not "in" the SS.

I'Ve read something quite similar on Rds.ca, not part of the super 6 but should fight some of them, Kessler's a viable option but I wouldn't be surprised by Froch too in the course of times.
