Anyone think Johnson has a shot against Bute?

Bute have only faced pressure fighters in the lst 4 years , in fact it's like if he's been training for Johson for 4 years now!

 

bute has only faced bums for the last 4 years....:yep:yep

 

MaGee and DeLeon aren't pressure fighters, can't remember most the guys he's fought lately but they aren't. Bute was down for 11 seconds in the Andrade fight and Froch did KO MaGee a long time ago too. This could be very tough for Bute as he's never faced some one of this class and Johnson is good against south paws but Bute will step his game up for this as he did vs Bika and Andrade the second time so who knows.

 

He has a punchers chance... about 5%.

But he will pressure Bute for a while, which is fine.

 

Of course he does.

 

They both sparred a lot with each other, Bute has to know that he can beat him without big risk. I guess it also made the contract a lot easier to make.
Farewell money for Johnson or if he wants to fight on maybe Bute wins a MD Decision.

 

Glen Johnson's a strong man. He will pressure Bute and give him troubles like he did with Froch. But to make up for his bad blocking bute is very good with movement and at this point Glen is slower. Doubt he can cope with bute's style. Bute by wider UD. ( 9-3 )

 

just because they aren't kessler, froch, ward or pascal doesn't make them bums. The Edison Miranda, Sakio Bika, Librado Andrade, Alejandro Berrio fights were legit or mandatory bouts like Jesse Brinkly, and Mendy. Sick of Bute haters.

 

I can actually see Bute stopping him. I can also see Glen hurting him too tho, so it will be interesting. But to answer your question, yeah hes got a shot.

 

I give Johnson a chance against anyone form 168-175

 

If I didn't give him a shot against Froch, I'm not gonna' give him one against Bute.

 

"Bute lacks defense."

Another myth about Bute. His opponents all say he os very difficult to hit. Are you watching Bute's fights on bad streams? Because in HD, he avoids many many punches. It's true Bute is not all defense like Ward. It is true that when you want to counterpunch, you have to let the other guy fires at you first but Bute doesn't get hit so often.

 

Well look a lot of Froch fans were saying before that fight that Froch was going to KO Johnson but it didn't happen. Johnson is expierienced, good against south paws and world class. Andrade isn't Johnson at the end of the day and let's face it, Andrade did beat Bute when Bute under estimated him. Yes, Bute is a very good fighter, better than he sometimes looks, when motivated which he will be but his power isn't sickening like some are making out. He just has great counters that catch his over matched opponents by suprise.

I wouldn't say a Bute KO is impossible but a Johnson one is more likely considering the opponents Johnson has proved his punch resistance against but it will be a great achievment if he does.

I'd have to pick Bute by close decision though because in every close fight Johnson has goes the other way.

 

Andrade didn't beat Bute, he lost. And Bute almost suffered the knockout because he completely gassed in the last round, not because he underestimated Andrade. Before was cleaning up in the 11 rounds previous.

 

The second Bute thinks Johnson doesn't have a chance is the second Johnson wins.
