    Lucian Bute and Glen Johnson are getting some excellent sparring in preparation for their next fight.

    Bute is currently in training camp in Florida in preparation for his rematch with Librado Andrade in November.

    Glen Johnson is probably one of the best sparring partner Bute could find to get ready for Andrade.

    No doubt Bute will help Johnson get ready for Chad Dawson as well (tall, skilled southpaw).

    I wonder if we'll see sparring videos show up on youtube? :bbb

    *Update* Here is a picture!

    This is indeed some great work for both these fighters. Hopefully andrade can find some good sparring mates as well.

    Outstandingly matched sparring. You couldn't get much better quality of sparring and replication at the same time for their respective fights.

    Both guys are doing the right thing. Johnson is better than Andrade but much older, Bute aint as good as Dawson but hes got a lotta similarities. You got to like Butes chances in Nov now

    What a sparring partner for both men. Their preparation will be as good as it can be, as sparring is concerned. That will be interesting to see some videos, as Maxime said, and to hear some comments of both men on eachother.
