Bute is not chinny. If he was he would have been put down by Berrio who hit him with some very good punches.
that Andrade shot was a 1 in a million occurrence, and outside of that he was dominated....Bute's been in with some very hard hitting guys, Berrio, Bika etc. his chin is solid, it's not a liability also, stylistically Bute would be hell for Kessler......Kesslers whole game is based off his jab and timing...and southpaws badly effect the jab and timing of orthordox fighters, example....Calzaghe-Kessler, 1st 3rounds when Joe was coming in squared up instead of coming in left first, Kessler was picking him off great and even shook him up.... then when Calz went to plan B and was coming in left first doubling and trippling up on his jab Kessler had no answers and since Calzaghe had the faster hands he was able to get off first and completly neturalize Kesslers jab and outbox him making it look EZ the same thing would happen if Bute fought Kessler....Bute works behind his jab, and has very fast hands so he'll be able to get his jab off quicker then Kessler's and once that happens the fights good as over because Kessler cant fight on the inside, so as soon as he cant outbox someone or time them and counter he has nothing left, he's all out of answers if you look at Kessler fight then look at Bute fight you may think Kesslers the better fighter (especially if you look at the Andrade fight since both of them fought him and Kessler pretty much had a field day on him while Bute got put on noodle legs) but....stylistically Bute is all wrong for Kessler, even if Bute himself doesn't know this yet, shiti wouldn't be suprised if Bute stopped Kessler i promise if the fight happens, you'd better put your money on Bute.....:good
Bute is not chinny. He is taller and bigger than Kessler. Has longer reach. Is southpaw. Is just as fast or faster. And h can use the last round against Andrade to his advantage. It means some people now underestimate him. Yes, I think Andrade should have gotten the win, but I also think Bute would win 8 out of 10 fights between them. Bute is the real deal.
I agree. Kessler undoubtedly IS the better fighter if we disect the two individually. However, Bute IS really good and has all the style advantages here.
So now Kessler cant fight inside !!!!!!!!!!!!!! news to me, Look at Bute in round 5 against Andrade, he was not there at all. Kessler would put him to sleep.
