Shitty fight.. how does Zuniga keep getting these title shots? Bute should have given Andrade an immediate rematch so he could get his ass knocked out again, this time earlier.
Is it a shitty fight because it's a mismatch? If so, why aren't you picking Bute by stoppage?:hey And if it's not a mismatch, that's because Bute's ****, right? Oh, well, at least it will be a competitive fight between two **** fighters, with a belt on the line.:smooch And to answer your question, they picked Zuniga because Showtime insisted on it. Bute/Interbox are looking for exposure in the USA, because that's the only way to make the really big fights, so they went with what Showtime wanted. I agree that they should have given Andrade an immediate rematch, though. :hi:, huki!
It is pretty much a mismatch and I'm picking Bute by decision because the guy needed 10 rounds to get rid of a shot, 168 pound Joppy and push for knockouts. I wouldn't be surprised if Zuniga does get stopped though.. he's a C+ level fighter and in the later rounds if Bute goes for the stoppage he'll probably get it. If this fight is competitive then it should be looked at as a bad performance by Bute.
11.34% of the people here think a stoppage will occur during rounds 5-8, yet Bute has a KO during 5-8 percentage of 16.72 and Zuniga 7.18. Interesting..
Jo Jo Dan's tune up fight about to start. His opponent just making his entrance. A Mexican. 8 round fight.
