    No body wants to see B Hop with Chad the first time never mind the return.

    Bute would be crazy going to light heavy he should force Hopkins down at 168lb.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    i think more that he's likely to fight Froch the next time around even if Froch loses against Ward. The reason? It would be the hell of a promotion to compare how Bute would do against Froch vs Froch against Ward. The table would then be dressed to unify the belts (would Froch loses against Ward) and people would see what Bute really worths compared to the other guys from the super 6. Hopkins would be more of a B plan if the fight against Froch doesn't land.

    Also, from a practical viewpoint, Ward can take care of his mandatory against Anthony Dirrell.

    Id just like to see Bute fight any live body and Hopkins isn't going to cut it..

    He needs to face a young elite fighter.. No more gimmie opponents cuz it's getting disgusting..

    best fight available to Hopkins seeing how he's quite popular now in Canada, and since Dawson doesn't want to do the rematch well it's basically the most logical step

    That as well, Anthony Dirrell vs Ward could be an interesting fast and furious type of match, I am afraid that Ward would play quite dirty though.
