    Completely crap. There was no way he could've continued, even if there were only 2 seconds left. And what was with the ref buying Bute time by constantly getting in between them.

    Have we all forgotten Mosley v. Mayorga already Bute would have had to have lasted another 7 seconds and he could barley stand. He fought a good fight, but did not deserve to win.

    What are the rules? Shall he just be on his feet, or shall be be in a condition to continue in this situation?

    Bute better hope this gets reversed and Andrade pronounced the champ.

    Because if it isn't this will stigmatize Bute forever. He will never be well-liked no matter what he does from here.

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    His guys need to take this seriously. This is not forgotten in a year or ten. They need to state to the IBF that they feel injustice was done and give the belt to Andrade.

    Thereafter a rematch could be done.

    Bute never took a step forward or raised his gloves to his chest.

    In fact the ref didn't ask or say anything to Bute at all. If the ref had ask Bute to take a step forward he would have fallen flat on his face.

    Bute got knocked out. Andrade got robbed.

    He has to be able to continue. Fighter can not be saved by bell in ANY round.
    Which he obviously was saved by the bell because he was stumbling back to his corner after the fight was over.

    The ref is supposed to ask a question. Usually its to raise your gloves to your chest. He also supposed to see if the fighters eyes are responding to him. Then the fighter is supposed to take one step forward.

    The ref completely abandoned knockdown protocal.

    you can't be saved by the bell. Bute had to be up by 10 and deemed able to continue. Ray Charles, (god rest his soul) could see that Bute would no way in hell have been able to continue. The dude was ****ing glazed like a krispy kreme. I was pulling for Bute in this fight, but I'm a BOXING fan before I'm a Bute fan........ that was some ****ing horse ****.....another black eye for boxing.....as if the sport needed anymore.

    Sounds like someone needs to take off their seatbelt and not ride Bute's dick

    Legit win my ass. If you believe this was a legit win then you should find a nice tall building from which to jump.

    6 seconds left..24 second count..Bute was OUT of it. If he was asked to step forward he wouldve stood there all wobbly and the ref would have had to wave it off.

    Anyone remember how controversial Chavez Taylor I was? 2 seconds left in the fight and the ref waved it off, why? because Meldrick was OUT OF IT. Just like Bute!!! **** this, a great night of boxing got ruined thanks to corruption.

    The ref said himself that Bute was out of it and had not Andrade stepped out of his corner it wouldve been a KO for Andrade....

    But wait! The 6 seconds went right on byyyy! so even if Andrade is in the middle of the ring, so long as Bute gets up within the 10 count he wins, so what difference does it make where Andrade is if the fight is over.

    PURE CORRUPTION. PURE ROBBERY. Im gonna go drink now and celebrate ANDRADE'S spectacular come from behind KO win.


    Times like these I wish 15 rounders were available. Bute would be dead by round 14 and I would be a happier man.

    Any Good ref would have been looking at bute and not at Andrade and see that he was ****ed beyond belief. Whether or not they stop the fight with that much time left is debatable but if the count was on time and Andrade did have enough time to get a shot in (the way it was supposed to be) then the fight really should have been stopped because with the condition he was in one more punch could have killed him.

    Do I think Less of Bute....well we now know he's not that durable and is an idiot for chosing to slug it out when he should have been boxing. Is he worse then Andrade..nope, would Froch Kill him? maybe. is Taylor better then him? possibly. would he beat Lacy? probably. Would Inkin Miranda or Mundine beat him? Possibly (probably not Inkin).....So basically I do think less of him because he didn't show me that he is above the rest he just showed me that he makes good fights with the rest.

    I believe that would be the 16 thousand paying customers in the Bell center. Andrade wasn't going to get that anywhere.....Oh and I have to give credit to the Italian Mob that runs the entertainment industry in Montreal....I'm sure they are good at influencing venue selection.
