Rumour: Lucian Butes next opponent is....

[WelshDevilRob]

the EBU (European) super middleweight Champion Brian Magee 34-3 (24 Ko's) according to Dan Rafael sports writer for ESPN. (on his Twitter) and its also been mooted on Maxboxing.

 

Thoughts?

Can't complain too much, opens up that title and gives Magee a payday, and whether you like it or not, he's a proven 168 lb'er

[Wheelchair]

Defeat looms for Magee.

[TommyLeeWannabe]

Bute can't fight the Super Six guys ... so he doesn't have a choice, even if I'm from montreal and love Bute, but it's bad ...

 

Stieglitz doesn't want to get out of Germany, and Interbox had their lessons (The big robbery of Markus Beyer VS Lucas). So, they don't have a choice, nobody can fight Bute right now. Can't wait Super Six coming off.

[grapevine241]

could be worse i guess

[londoner]

Not a bad fight while he waits on the S6 fighters and Pascal to be freed up.

[edsel77x]

at least he's not fighting someone smaller or uncompetitive.

I wish Magee well but I think Bute will deal with him inside the distance. Surely Bute will have to step up and face a proper challenge sooner or later though. Anyone who rates him as the best 168 lb'er out there needs their head testing. Bute will be in for one hell of a shock should he face the winner of the Super6.

I agree he is getting very overated and whoever wons the super six will completly expose him.

 

Froch Ward Dirrell and maybe Johnson could all beat him.
