Currently, who is the most protected fighter (e.g. someone like Sven Ottke)?

Lucian bute.. He needs to be stripped. It's ludacrious.

I don't think you can call a fighter protected when he's faced Sakio Bika, Librado Andrade, and Glen Johnson. None of those guys are a walk in the park.

For a guy who's been a so called champion for nearly 4 years, his resume is a joke and it's not acceptable..

HIs fans would defend his lack of competition by bring up the Super6 but the fact is, he won his title at the end of 07 and the super6 started nearly 2 years later so what was he doing for those 2 years when many top fighters were available? You mean to tell me that he had no choice but to face mandatories for all those years? that's some bullshit.. Lucian Bute is a classic example of a pampered hometown fighter who fights overmatched opponents in his backyard.. He has huge fanbase in canada and sells alot of tickets so he's content on making big bucks in his backyward against nobodies..

So he beat Sakio Bika and Andrade.... and they are C level fighters and when you're a champion, you should be fighting guys who are alot better than that..

Lucian Bute has not beaten ONE elite fighter and that's ridiculous.. Might as well throw away that belt..

He's the epitome of a paper champion.. Im not saying that he's not a good fighter because he obviously is.. I like his style but the dude needs to fight someone already.. This bum tour must come to and end...

Glenn Johnson?? OK i guess that's slighter better than the bikas and the Joppys but c'mon.... We all know Johnson is coming in as another handpicked opponent.. It's a gimmie fight..

Just wake me up when Bute gets into an evenly matched up bout..

Who were the fighters that Bute didn't face that you wanted to see him face?
