~~~ Lucian BUTE v. Alejandro BERRIO Analysis and Prediction Thread ~~~

I think the most likely fights are:

Markus Beyer
Winner of Andrade/Mack
Edison Miranda
Allan Green
Jeff Lacy

I doubt the european undefeated prospects will want to come over to america to get a shot at Bute when they can just wait and get a shot at a vacant title.

 

Oh I think Bute would be ready for Lacy right now.

But I don't think Lacy will be ready for a fight this big for another 6 months.

 

Why make Bute vs Pascal Knock out?

Bute is fighting the IBF champ. Why would he want to fight Pascal? Aside from the fact that Pascal is not ready for Bute and would get KTFOed?

Yvon Michel knows Pascal is not ready and Interbox would never allow their local competitor have a fight with their champion unless it was a mandatory.

You can keep dreaming but it ain't gona happen.:rasta

 

I think Bute-Pascal will only happen if:

1- One of them loses a fight first.

2- The two of them are champions.

 

Bute is sparring Jeffa Ballagou, Otis Griffin and Carl Handy at the moment.

Two other sparring partners should join the team in the next few days.

 

The last one is because he fought Berrio.

 

Well, I would agree with you on that. Though he still saw him fight for 8 rounds, which is more then what Bute did.:rasta
