Bute's last performance was not up to the standards needed to beat Andrade. Who really knows if he will take it to the next level when he has to?
Bute is still inexperienced (21 pro fights) and has a lot still to improve on and learn...but I don't think he will go into the ring against Librado if he thought he wouldn't beat him.
No...Bute's first defence won't be against Andrade...it will probably be against the winner of Sanavia v. Haeussler (fight is tonight)...on the 29th of February...talk about Bute v. Andrade is for summer 2008...
My bad, i have been away to long. Thank you for firm but gentle slapping lesson:nono Still love the match-up though!
