Lucian Bute v Denis Grachev delayed coverage on Sky!

Sunday 4th November, 08:00am, Sky Sports 1

 

I honestly dont know why sky dont show all there american broadcasts (bar pac/mayweather) on delay seen as they only pay half the price for it, that would mean they could buy double the broadcasts. And if its only a 3 hour delay that would mean fans wouldnt have to stay up all night i know i wouldnt

 

Didn't Grachev KO the black russian slickster? If so Grachev has a chance against Bute.

 

Just came on here to say just that. Short for the weight and basic aggressor, Grachev did work his way into the fight with Sillakh, not putting up with his technical superiority, catching him dozing, and then not giving him a chance to get hinself back together.

A pretty good way to beat Bute. If he's at all 'damaged' from the Froch fight this might not be the easiest route back.

However, Grachev will not be that hard a puzzle for Bute to figure out, he'll catch him clean and will be way too fast. He poses the right problems, and is a relatively safe yet game and strong enough opponent that Bute will get a real workout.

That's all it will be. Bute by stoppage at some point.

 

That's all it's supposed to be. As a Bute fan, I don't care whom he fights next, as long as he rematches Froch after that.
