Maybe but not by much and Bute puts more power behind his shots , and he will trow some combos to from nice angles that might push AA tight guard in different directions and make a little space for a good punch to slide in and end the combination.:bbb
Abraham would murder this dude. Bute got broken down by Andrade. Abraham is stronger, faster and better defensively then Andrade. Come on now. I know Bute has taken over Kesslers place as the new hype job but lets be reasonable.
The more I think about it, the more I swing in favor of AA. I think he can take what Bute would dish out....catching alot on his shell. But I highly doubt that Bute can withstand what AA dishes out. Now, of course he has to land the shot that does damage. But AA is such a strange animal. He just basically walks up to a guy daring him to throw shots so he can counter. So, in order to beat him you've got to get thru the guard which he seems to be getting better and better at maintaining. But you've got to throw a bunch of shots in order to get that guard down, which plays right into his counter punch game. Of course, we know he'll let his opponent take some rounds early, which could haunt him against a guy like Bute. But, I think Bute's chin is untested against a guy like AA. Interesting fight.
Bute was banged out by Golovkin - and ive seen him extended a few times as a professional - and round 12 knockdown should have seen him lose his title. Abraham just beat a better guy than Bute in Jermain Taylor. Bute is a promoters dream, they have pulled all the rights moves at the right time, whilst always remaining the obvious favourite in all their matches for him. Their choices of opponents have been excellent, fairly dangerous on paper, yet the reality is they are shy of being world-class. Abraham however, he is legit.
Why is it not bright to compare Andrade to AA, the thread is about AA vs Bute, Bute's best opponent to date is Andrade, some might argue Bika, so me comparing AA to an opponent Bute fought twice is "not bright":huh? You don't recognize Bute in my post is because I was comparing the advantages AA has over Andrade. :huh Yes I know there styles are different:huh Yes I did find them, you just did not want to READ them.
Bute's chin is probably the most tested in the division. Bika, Berrio, Zuniga, Andrade. Abraham is even better than Berrio, who's an average boxer with an outstanding one punch. It took 12 rounds to Abraham to get rid of Taylor. The fight was close, clearly in favor of Abraham but still close. In my book, Bute is on another level. He's very accurate, moves much better than Taylor, hits harder than Taylor, has a better chin than Taylor and a better stamina. Bute is also a southpaw with good lateral movement. Both Bute and Abraham are intelligent in a ring. Taylor is not. He's not able to adapt. Any comparison involving Bute and Taylor is not good for Abraham.
It's not intelligent to compare Abraham to Andrade because they are the exact opposite. It can't be less relevant. atsch
Abraham has one single good win in the SMW division. And it's only a good win if you don't consider Taylor as damaged goods. I see you've changed nuts to hug. Has Froch disappointed you?
Dude are you dense or what? There is absolutely nothing wrong with comparing two fighters, in the same division against a future opponent. WHEN DID I EVER SAY THEY ARE IDENTICAL TWINS?atsch Are you incapable of comprehending. SHOW ME ONE POST OF MINE in this thread that I wrote something in the lines of AA and Andrade being similiar?
WTF has Bute done in the SMW division, other then beating Andrade twice, first fight being controversial and beating Bika?
