    I just hope it's entertaining because in about 10 hours I'll be watching it.

    A champion is not a contender anymore.

    I don't know what Bute wants to do. Play with him a little while (5 or 6 rounds) and the finish him? Finish him as soon as possible? Take no risk and stay on the outside?

    We'll know in a couple of hours.

    I only recognize one champion in that division and thats Pavlik. All others are contenders. He may have a belt but he's not the recognized champ

    You are aware Bute is at 168?

    As far as this fight I think Joppy will get punished.

    I just hope Bute won't fight safe, he should mix it up a bit

    Anything but an impressive performance with a win by stoppage at the end will be not good enough. Bute needs to show an improved defence, a better jab, more precision and, generally, more of a fighting spirit.

    I predict Bute KO 6.
