yes why wasn't he?

Looking at the state of the invited fighter at the time, i think all the euros had a better case for being invited, and they needed americans aswell for it to be viable on showtime.
I highly doubt the higher ups at showtime "ducked" bute, so I'm not sure why its even mentioned.
edit: coming off as a huge bute hater itt. Not the case. I'd root for him against anyone in the division not named kessler. Possibly won't root for him against the road warrior because hes an awesome person.
Against ward, dirrell, froch, pascal I'd snapback bute.
Also, interesting 30day weighin for floyd vs ortiz.
"danrafaelespn Dan Rafael
The wretched WBC held 30-day weigh-in for @FloydMayweather & @ViouciousOriz today. Mayweather 149 pounds, Ortiz 157.4. Max allowed was 162."
Mayweather seems to still be a really small ww in terms of actual weight. He'll probably fight at close to 150,
