    A poorly trained Zuniga gave Inkin a hard fight and a good trained Zuniga got stopped early.See the difference between Bute,Inkin,Balzasay etc.

    Styles make fights, but I'd pick Bute over Inkin fairly confidently, I think. Balzsay...well...I think he's a bit underrated and he's only getting better. Don't sleep on Balzsay. :good

    Maybe erased some of the bad memories a bit, but Andrade is a much better fighter than Zuniga...and he's a SMW! Andrade will be a very hard test for Bute...and, to be honest, I'd be a little bit surprised if Bute manages to win the second time around.

    damn... i lost some nice money because I bet a Bute win by T/KO in the 5th... so being there in yellow... doesn't help my finances too much :(
    still... good fight for Bute that clearly showed he learned not to play arround with the oponent (like in the last round with Andrade).
    Andrade was there... he predicted an early win for Bute and to be honest - as a romanian and a big fan of Bute - that guy there (Andrade) won all my respect and i wish him only the best.
    I really hope Andrade wins his match in April and gets to fight Bute again - in the US - because they both deserve big money and fame.
    Cheers!

    No. Unless you mean in terms of Lucian's confidence level.

    Very, very unlikely, imo. Andrade keeps his belt-line very high, has very long arms which he keeps tight to his sides and because he relies on his chin, he never has to lift his hands, so he's always protected. For Bute to hit the body, he needs to get close enough. Andrade has a longer reach and is more active. If Bute is too close, Andrade roughs him up on the inside. Bute couldn't go to the body against Andrade...and I'm not sure it was because he didn't want to...

    I'm sure Larouche and Bute will find a strategy to be able to land it. The head movement improvement is not there for nothing.

    By the way, I was going to a Cage aux sports restaurant, when I said to myself: why pay 40$ for three pints of beer and chicken wings while I can pay 50$ for a ticket at Bell Center. So, I watched the fight live but I was far, so I watched it on the giant screen, with the crowd ambiance.
