    It's pretty much a done deal. They just wanted to wait after Bute-Andrade to sign the fight.

    I guess they just need to wait for the IBF decision before they announce it.

    I am not so sure I am hyped up about the idea. I just feel that Bute should do the right thing and give the belt to Andrade.

    Can anyone understand the scoring the judges made? One had Andrade winning 4 rounds ?? OK, when someone holds constantly it should count against him, but Bute didn't hold anywhere as much as, say, Ricky Hatton. And one judge apparently had Andrade down TWICE ?!?!?

    No one had Andrade winning. It was unanimous. Bute never got any warnings for holding. Andrade however got some weird warnings, and a count for being pushed by Butes hip.

    Trolling? Think you are the first one ever to accuse me of trolling.

    Sorry, wasn't aware that Bute was warned. I will recheck later.

    Bute should have been warned more often for holding and those hilarious wrestling moves. No doubt about it.

    But Andrade was hitting Bute with his forearms and elbows. He also did some pretty rough wrestling moves.

    Both of them should have had points taken away.

    I found the warnings he got pretty unnecessary - but obtaining the fight now as we speak, so will go through a postmatch watching.
