Calzaghe got stick for Manfredo, so Bute deserves his stick for not having meaningful fights too.

    Bute is possibly very good, but it's hard to tell against these kind of mandatories and Kessler and Pavlik leftovers.
    Thing is, Brinkley fought his way to earn this title shot, it was his time, his payday. Bute is simply staying busy fighting a mandatory. Bute's options are out of his control right now.
    Still not a particularly meaningful fight though, especially considering the depth that SMW has, but for sure that's not all completely down to Bute. All I am saying though is that on this fight Bilbo has a fair point. I've not read through all the threads today, so have a feeling Bilbo might have been winding up people elsewhere, but I haven't seen much trolling in this particular instance.

    Who said it was?
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Nobody, but there is no harm in calling it for what it is.

    I'm watching Mason Dixon too, next topic....

    Aside from posting how great the Kindle is I've not made any other contributions to the forum this week. I expect Josh has run out of Newcastle Brown Ale.
