Bilbo?

Bilbo can't make 168. Fact.

Damn it ono, I saw that post and was going to make the exact same joke. In reality though, Bilbo would need to have a rucksack full of physics textbooks and be carrying a labrador in his arms to try and make 168.

Haha!! Funny thread..

I agree with Armin though. Bute's kind of in a difficult position in that all the big names are injured or tied up with the Super Six. His resume wasn't any worse than most of the boxers going into the Super Six at the time. The tournament has just brought the best guys in the division together and their stock has risen because of it. Bute has been left out in the cold while all the other fighters take the glory. He really needs to be fighting the winner though because he won't have any excuses not too. I still think Froch, Ward, Kessler and Dirrell would take him.
