    Bute's trainer, Stéphane Larouche, kept his mouth shut until Bute won the rematch. It's not like they came out with this after Andrade I, they didn't. The entire thing is in French, but here are a couple of key points to note;

    http://ckoi.ca/montreal/sports/nouvelles/exclusif-lucian-etait-malade-lors-du-1er-duel-402.html

    -"There will be a rematch, and I'll tell you what happened tonight when that's over with" - Larouche, after Andrade I

    -Bute went to his sister's wedding in Romania, got food poisoning

    -Bute came back to Canada, was prescribed antibiotics to which his body reacted negatively

    -In camp, Bute's heartrate was unusually high, and he had lost 4 kg for no reason other than this reaction to antibiotics

    -Saw a doctor a month before the fight, was told not to move forward with the fight because of anemia

    -"I'll outbox Andrade and get it over with now" - Bute to Larouche, before the fight

    -Bute had no awareness of time at all in the 12th round, couldn't think anymore, reflex behaviour was to stand there, trade and lean forward as that's less demanding than stick & move

    -In camp for the 2nd fight, Larouche felt on the pads that the punches were that much stronger, heavier, Bute's heartrate was also perfect

    -Bute was feeling great through the dehydration period for the 2nd fight

    -Larouche & Bute were aware that HBO preferred a KO, and they were both comfortable going for it


    On that note, here's one of Bika's right hands connecting in the early rounds, testing greenish Bute's chin 3 years and 5 months before the Ward fight...

    ...Bute's chin not as bad as the haters make it out to be. :deal

    Hey Escopeta, what are your arguments again for seriously predicting a Johnson KO? :think

    In my experience, those are clear signs of being out on your feet, epileptic, or both.

    Out on your feet, I agree. Ref could have easily stopped it in the 2nd half of the 12th. Bute was lucky, however the rules were still adhered to.

    Bute had AIDS in the first fight.

    Not really all that long of a post. Should it take more than a minute to read this?

    It would be if Bute did not KO Andrade in the rematch. Since he did, you are the pathetic ****. :hi:

    Bute is badass for going through with a fight under those circumstances. But this is ESB and when it's garden variety, keyboard warrior is not getting ass to mouth from the porn star of their choice, they would have been winning fights under more difficult circumstances.

    Andrade's fans or anti-Bute's:
    Before Andrade II:
    Andrade just need to push earlier and harder and it's done. He have granite chin and he prove he already KO Bute.

    After Andrade II:
    Andrade was stupid to come forward like that, he opened himself to counter. Anyway is tactics are to block punch with his face, he was never that good to begin with.

    Every fighter comes out with some horse **** excuses like this to explain losses. George Foreman was under the spell of a witch doctor. Roy Jones lost too much weight. Andre Berto had an iron deficiency.

    Bute had a **** night, I doubt there was any more to it.
