    Pot calling the kettle black there. Heres an old clown who by his own admission has seen Bouttier fight four times, three of those were clear losses, and yet his opinion is set in stone and be damned if anyone else more well versed in the subject has a different, more informed opinion. Sounds like the same joker who swore up and down that Folley was robbed against Mildenberger and that Charles was robbed against Layne without ever having seen anything more on those fights than a sentence in Boxrec. He'll argue until hes blue in the face about those fights with someone whose actually seen them. But he sure as **** wont admit hes wrong. Instead of sitting at the computer in your local library next to all of the other homeless geriatrics why dont you take that time to watch these fights and read about them before flapping your dentures at us?

    In the first fight he was the aggressor for most of the fight, threw a lot of wide, looping hooks, and made Bouttier miss a lot. Bouttier turned up the heat late in the fight and began throwing a lot more punches but DeLima's awkward defense kept him out of trouble.

    The second fight DeLima alternated between counterpunching and coming forward, always with his looping punches. Bouttier was the bigger man so DeLima always had to time his punches and rushes. Once again DeLima was more accurate but Bouttier started out faster in this fight. Once again Bouttier increased his attack in the final two rounds but DeLima's accuracy and harder punching and better defense made the difference.

    In the third fight DeLima looked much slower, less accurate, and less aggressive. He tried to box the taller man going backwards and didnt have as much success as the first two fights. Bouttier was much more active in the early rounds. DeLima looked like a much older version of himself in this fight.
