Fair post...They don't call Bute "Le Tombeur" for nothing. Bute's not perfect either, but he doesn't badmouth anyone in public, nor saying bad things about Dorin's career (choices) or accomplishments. :conf... :good
I presume the weight-in will be at the Bell Center Cage aux sports restaurant, as usual. Is it at 2 pm? I will try to be there, I appreciated it last time. I was just beside Andrade and the Grant brothers. That's a good opportunity to be near boxers.
That's all I am.....fair. And you know what............sometimes going on someones'a back and stabbing him is worse than doing it directly.
As the fight comes closer, I think it's time to focus on the outcome of the fight instead of stirring bad vibes about those two Romanian heroes. Anyway, if what I heard in the promo from Lucian comes to be the truth. He's going to make a statement to everyone by taking care of Mr Z in a clear and decisive way. A statement would be to get rid of Zuniga by knocking the guy down in the first half of the fight. I beleive he's able to do so because he has to clear his head and get back on the right state of mind to give Andrade his desired rematch. With all the respect in the world to Zuniga, I think Bute has way too much power, speed and skills to even let him come close. I expect a demolition job that will begin at the first ring of the bell and will end around round 5 or 6. Otherwise, Lucian might keep a certain dose of doubt when comes time to erase the ending of his Andrade story. Anyway, I will be threre as usual to witness the whole thing and will be happy to cheer our Champion on his way to MK next year... Go Bute Go!!!
For those who speak french... http://www2.canoe.com/sports/nouvelles/archives/2009/03/20090308-073300.html Zuniga will be in town tonight. Both men will be at a press conference tomorrow. Bute's coach, Stéphane Larouche, says there will be no problem to make the weight. Bute is already in his dehydratation phase.
In another note who will be the ring announcer?I hope Showtime get Joe Antonacci or someone like that this time(I'm not hoping for Lennon jr.) cuz that Pierre Bernier weasel is worse than Jim Gray's demeanor.Guy is a weasel.Don't know how he became no 1 in Canada,there are better guys than him,guy has no charisma at all.no nothing.
Echols punches far harder, but he's shot too pieces. Probably THE most shot fighter out their at the moment, bar Tommy Morrison. Anyway, I'll take Bute UD. Something comfortable like 9-3, he has to be careful though because Zuniga can bang.
Decebal I think you've been at Bell Center, am I right? If yes how was your experience and what did you visited? And don't worry Lucian is well know all around Québec, I am following him since his win at Le Pavillon de La Jeunesse when he was 23. I am started to be very excited cause the fight's coming soon and I'm confident that Bute will perfom at his best! tko 8 For the romanian: I've heard that Royal Palace in Burarest is the second biggest building in the world!!! so wath do you think about it...that must be very impressive. Here at Quebec city there Le Chateau Frontenac who is quite special it's a hotel...you should take a look! bonsoir
I think the probabilities Zuniga koes Bute are there but pretty thin for the 10th round. At the time, Bute will have adapted to Zuniga style. More chances for a ko in the earlier rounds. Very little chance.
I've never been to the Bell Centre...never even been to Canada, unfortunately. :|:-|:-| The only fight I've seen in the flesh was Calzaghe v. Kessler. I live in Britain...so it's kind of tricky to watch Bute, for example, in the flesh. The "House of the People" monstrosity was built under the regime of Ceausescu to house the national assemmbly, government and his own official residence. Now, it houses the Parliament. It was a huge waste of money and to build it, they cleared a huge chunk of historic, beautiful Bucharest. Great, great shame. It also costs a hell of a lot of money to maintain...and the only things it is useful for are huge events like the Nato summit, for example. It is hated by most Romanians with a passion. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casa_Poporului I've read about Château Frontenac...it's quite famous even here...and very beautiful...maybe one day...!:good (If I would have to live anywhere outside of Europe, I'd pick Canada for sure...!!!):thumbsup
