    Antwuan Maxx mentioned reading Dan Rafael reporting DiBella was interested in making this fight happening. Apparently, he's be happy for it to take place in Montreal.

    Please post your analysis. There's a poll for us to give our prediction too. Thank you.

    Awesome fight. 50/50 fight to be honest, I think Taylor has the overall talent to push Bute but Bute could rely on his technical prowess to win the fight.

    As long as Taylor sticks to using his Jab effectively - I'll take him in this fight.

    It would be an awesome tactical fight. I see it being a close fight for the first ten rounds but I see Bute winning by TKO late.

    i would have Bute up 8-4

    but he could knock Taylor out if he catches him with a big one

    Taylor via close decision. Possibly KO if he catches Bute with something.

    I really don't know.Taylor lacks workrate and losses focus in fights but has looked good with Lacy and partially with Pavlik II(even though he lost).I think Bute could outwork him but can't really say till I see more of the SMW Taylor.Voted too close too call.

    bute was winning 11out of ten rounds before andrade got him.

    he beats taylor and possibly by tko as he seems to have rather good power.


    i still feel they robbed andrade

    Why are so many voting for JT to get KOed? It's not like the guy has a glass chin. He took a lot of flush right hands in two fights with Pavlik and was only hurt that one time he was KOed.

    I only saw Bute fight once against Andrade and he's obviously got talent but does he have power?
