Is Lucian Bute the Best 168lbs Fighter in the World?

OK, so I've wrote this before:

Interesting thing about Marlon Wright.
Look at this video from 2005 (Jean Pascal vs. Donnie Penelton).
See something familiar?

So it's not like it's the first time for Marlon. Only then it was against a Canadian.

 

Librado threw 900 punches against Mikkel Kessler and landed 95, compared to the fight with Bute he threw 673 and landed 175 of those. To say he "easily" beat Librado all the way through is somewhat laughable, I remember what I saw with my own eyes, and that was Librado and Bute fighting a well spirited fight and both landing at a decent percent ratio. Librado came on late in the fight and had Bute running and down badly in the 12th round, needed the referee to save him from getting KTFO, as he already was out on his feet.

For you to say Bute wasnt even hurt, is outright pathetic. Bute was OUT ON HIS FEET, knocked down for over 10 seconds.

He was obviously not hurt, eh?

 

And no.. Bute doesnt have a better resume than Ward.

 

Good point!

 

You will loose your money on the Cobra. And you just lost all respect. Reason: "Glen Johnson schools billy goat ward". omg. get another hobby please.

 

Not better than Kessler and Froch either, he's CLEARLY not even top3. Ofcourse he can prove me wrong by winning against the very elite, but for him to do that he'd actually have to fight the very best, something he's not done in three years as a champion.

 

Bute is not 2.

Bute is after Kessler, Froch, AA, Dirrell and Ward. Mainly because of his poor resume.

 

Bute is in my top 3 Kessler Ward and Himself.

But he fights Brinkley, Miranda.

Not good enough , not near.

This is why I give him a hard time on here , because he could dominate. But decides to fight B grade fighters, and dont give me the mandatory bull.

 

When it comes to Bute...you couldn't give a **** what is true or not !!

Bute himself admitted on numerous occasions afterwards that Andrade never came close to hurting him, staggering him or anything the like... He was drained of his energy because he was sick fool ! It's a known fact for non haters.

Bute won 10 out of the first 11 rounds so besides the last round fiasco, yes it qualifies as a rather easy UD against a train that never keeps coming.

Again he wasn't knocked out on his feet but tired like guys are after running marathons, in his case because he was sick and it caught up with him ! Again he mentioned it quite often in the Montreal media.

He was up at no more than 8 and you already acknowledged that in other threads about Bute in the past.

You're definitely one of Bute's 5 star trolls !! Congrats dumbass !!:thumbsup

 

Are you really stupid?

 

Bravo!!

Too bad the idiots over at the ring mag can't use common knowledge and base fighters off of factual achievements. There is NOBODY in the world that can say Froch, Kessler, Dirrell or Ward wouldn't fly past his opposition with ease, Abraham aswell.

What champion had a three year reign and fought as weak opposition as Bute? I doubt even Sven Ottke fought as poor opponents in his first three years.

 

There's no problem with that and most of his fans now feel the same as you.

I think the core of our previous discussion though was based on you not taking the time to acknowledge the truth...not just what you heard on Showtime or saw because it blinded the facts.

He needs to step up I totally agree and he won't get a freebee from his fans anymore either !!

 

Almost true, I think he was hurt, was out on his feet, but was not down for over 10 seconds. And the Andrade Bute have faced was more expirenced and much better. Kessler was a beast back then and he was Andrade's first real test. Anyway forget this sterile debate, Bute maybe should have lost but got the win and in bonus he avenged his ''win'' with a knockout over Andrade, something even Kessler have not been able to do. Why hate a fighter with tons of heart, who get up after being badly beaten and even want to go at it again after this fight. Boxing need more fighter like Bute and less hater like some peaople here.

:good

 

He's actually a smart fella normally, but for Bute, he just likes to take the idiot role... Go figure why....

 

C'mon Bute is number 2 even in Fightnews ranking, is your opinion and knowledge so much better than Fightnews guys?

Really, some weird boxing fans around here....
