Lucian Bute is a perfect example of how today's fighters can become champion without

Bute in all regards is an embarrassment to the sport.

 

I seems that Bute is overhyped on this board. I rate him behind Kessler and Froch.

 

And Linares, two weight class champions that haven't even beat a good contender.

 

Welcome to tha Bute haters club. Are you Finito?

At least, Bute has some haters. Have you noticed anybody hates Green?
:rofl

 

This guy is SO ****ING OVERRATED.

 

noone is putting Bute in their p4p lists

he is not overrated

 

No one puts Bute at number one spot yet, even me, and I'm a fan of his. I put him at number 2. Some people puts him number 3. Where do you see the hype? Every single ranking puts him number 2 or 3. Wouldn't it be possible that he just deserves his spot?

 

Say about what? Pac lost before he won and after he won a title, and who did he beat to get a shot at the flyweight champ that you know nothing about pusshead lol...!!!???

 

Nothing wrong being rank behind Kessler and Froch (although i disagree about Froch).

I dont think Bute is overhyped or overated.
I've not seen many people saying he is the number one.

Oh wait, and Froch had way better opposition right?
I would like to see what ANdrade would do to Taylor...

Hell, lets put Andrade against Froch. I doubt Froch would look that good.

 

well said

 

True,this Finito is hating Bute more then jews hate Hitler.

 

Current titleholders with clearly weaker resumes than Lucian Bute:

Nicolai Valuev
Victor Ramirez
Guillermo Jones
Gabriel Campillo
Jean Pascal
Zsolt Erdei
Karoly Balzsay
Andre Berto
Andreas Kotelnik
Edwin Valero
Paulus Moses
Jorge Linares
Roman Martinez
Takahiro Aoh
Cristobal Cruz
Toshiaki Nishioka
Joseph Agbeko
Carita Lopez
Nobuo Nashiro
Denkaosan Kaovichit
Omar Narvaez
Brahim Asloum
Raul Garcia
Donnie Nietes
Nkosanthi Joyi

There are plenty of others where you can make an argument, simply because they've fought one better fighter, but don't have the same depth of resume (including Carl Froch, Felix Sturm, Arthur Abraham, etc.). Bute is FAR from being the best example of this.

 

This is the way to own a ****** ,with facts.thanks!Bute is not the man to point out.

 

Maybe if you werent such a big fan of Valero people would take this thread serious.

 

Sure.

Kotelnik's best wins are over Gavin Rees and Marcos Maidana. He also has losses to M'Baye and Witter. If he beats Khan, it helps, and I rate Kotelnik highly as a boxer (I think he's much better than he used to be, and he deserved the win over M'Baye in the rematch), but Maidana and Rees are a step down from Andrade and Bute.
