    How do you see this one going folks ? :hat

    AA clearly can't handle guys like Ward, Dirrell & Froch. But thing is Lucian is a class under those fighters too and seems to not like being hit, he can't cope with pressure and his punch resistance is questionable too.

    Is this a winnable fight for AA ?

    AA isnt as aggressive as Froch, I dont think he'll just walk Bute down & beat him up a la Froch. However he does hit harder & Bute isnt the most durable, I doubt he wouldve stood up to some of the shots AA landed on Steiglitz.

    I think AA would struggle with Bute's range & bodywork, he wont apply pressure & Bute might settle into a rhythm & build a big lead. AA could stop Bute but I'd slightly favour the balding Canadian.

    AA is not made for 168lb but I feel if he managed to connect Lucy's chin would shatter.

    I think Bute is too big , Froch said he punch's hard and i recen Bute could out box AA from the out side, it would be a good fight..

    I think Abraham could stop Bute.

    This is a fight AA can win. Froch showed Bute is vulnerable to punchers. He can KO Bute. I don't think Bute will ever have the same confidence after the way Froch took him apart. And they're set to rematch after their next fights anyway, so AA probably won't get the chance. Bute would get beat up on the inside against AA.

    AA would give Bute too much space to settle any early nerves.

    lol, you voted Bute by stoppage. That's probably the most unlikely outcome for this fight. And you picked it.

    Perhaps. I was surprised to see chinny Stieglitz go the distance with him though despite taking some huge shots.

    Its too hard to make judgement on Bute. I need to see how he performs after the Froch loss.

    Im one of the few here who beleive Steiglitz won the fight last night. Everytime Steiglitz went to the body, Abe backed up.

    Bute would stop him with a straight L to the body.:deal
