    I know but this is a fight where we can say "pick'em" - and this hsould be what real boxing fans should always want to see...

    If Pavlik and Zertuche were EASILY countering him early on I can only imagine what Bute will do to him.Altough I was impressed with his performance with Inkin which was pretty good.

    this his ther kind of statements i have prefered them to shut up!
    Maybe its just to get Zuniga more comfortable.

    I have to disagree. Bute is quite an outstanding fighter, quick, slick, powerful and I think has a good stamina. Still, Andrade came on like a machine to drop him. Andrade is a stamina killer, just like Calzaghe.

    Tsypko is no Stieglitz, and I think he pulled it off vs. Lacy, but that version of Jeff was absolutely beatable by any top10 SMW. Andrade is much better than Lacy, and significantly stronger, taller and busier than Vitali, who might beat an average paced Andrade, but certainly not the Andrade express. As good as Kessler was, he had to use all his superb talent, stamina, chin, very polished technique and very good output to win every round, and never let Andrade in the fight. There's no resting or take-off round, you have to do it at 100%, I don't think Tyspko is capable of that for 36 minutes. 10 seconds was the difference between a Bute UD and an Andrade TKO, and Bute dominated most of the fight.

    If Andrade v. Tsypko is indeed a pick'em fight, then Tsypko is bloody good! (I've never seen him fight...so...he might well be; I'm not saying he ain't!)

    I'd have to imagine that sitting across from a guy who took 11 rounds on punishment, got knocked down, smiled and laughed about it, got back up and kept coming is a little disheartening.

    Honestly I don't blame Bute if he was a tad demotivated when the 12th round began. Hard to stand across the ring from a terminator and still have an upbeat attitude.

    Tsypko his one of the only top 20 boxers at 168lbs i didnt have the chance to see him fight even if i search i couldnt found videos so i really cant talk on this one , but one thing for sure i will watch this one carefully because if he win this mean his really a top 5 in the SW!

    We beg to differ, Biggie...I've seen about 5 fights from Tsypko and he looked hot'n'cold from fight to fight...but he can truly make it very competative vs. Andrade...

    Just to makes things clear, it's wrote "pHYSiologique" and not "pSYchologique"..... that's a big difference.

    Yeah...but Bute didn't HAVE to win the last 2 rounds...he could have just cruised to the finish, if he thought this guy was likely to finish him off...although...his legs had started to go as early as the 10th round...:think

    Inkin did good in the middle rounds IMO,where he actually won the fight.Zuniga had a late rally but it was to little to late.
