    Well... Alvarez is based out of there too, but Bute is the household name. Same ****...:lol:

    Preito rattled Alvarez's legs several times in their fight.

    It wasn't that Alvarez was hit with a hard shot to the head, but that his legs did that funny little dance, his brain stopped communicating with his legs. You can't really change if you respond that way to punches. I see it as a subtle warning sign at times, whether it's actually true or not.

    Yes, the odds are 1/4 Alvarez but that seems too wide.

    I'm still sticking to my Alvarez pick, but Bute surely has a better shot than 3/1 or 4/1. Alvarez doesn't have a lot of power, so in all likelihood he needs to get the win on points. And Bute tends to be a favourite with the judges. Plus Bute can bang and Alvarez can be hurt, so there's a small chance of a Bute KO there too ...

    I don't see Bute as a puncher at this level. I'm gunna bet on Bute to win because at 11/4 you have to go with the real home town favourite, imo its clear this fight has been set up for Alvarez to lose by Stevenson's promoter. Alvarez has been mandatory for a while now and the promoter of both men sets this up instead? it doesnt make sense unless he wants a big money Canadian showdown between Stevenson and Bute.
