    I think his whole plan should be oriented around that signature punch. He is so multidimensional that he can disguise it in numerous ways. And one more thing... he has to save gas by attempting only when the hit landing probability is high!

    Bute is quite frightened as he knows Andrade can ko him deep in the fight...so I expect him to get on bicycle and run throughout the fight

    Why should he be frightened? Andrade's best shots didn't hurt him. He went down because exhaustion, not because of Andrade's power. No reason to be frightened in my opinion.

    Does anyone know if there is a clear rule about the height of the abdo guard? In the last couple of fights, Bute's opponents wre wearing very high abdo guards, especially Librado Andrade. Bute has an excellent uppercut to the body and against Andrade he had nowhere to place it. Comments?

    It must be below the belly button(naval) normally.

    If it's over it the ref makes the call if the shot is legal or not.

    Btw Russ Anver by KO.

    The problem is that even if Bute has the right to hit on the protector, like the ref allowed him the last time, it still protects Andrade and gives him an unfair advantage. It can also hurt Bute's hand. At least, for the wrapping, the opponent's trainer has the right to inspect and make the other team rewrap if necessary. What about the belt? It seems to be a legal way to cheat.
