OMG! I had no doubt he was easily gonna beat Andrade to a decision. But damn I didn't expect this! Hell I didn't even expect Bute to knock DOWN Andrade yet he did it with a compact left hook which Andrade didn't see at all. And then a PICTURE PERFECT left to the body. Knocked the wind right out of Andrade. Very good win for Bute! :bbb:good
At the very least, he needs to fight the winner of the Super Six. I somehow doubt HBO letting Bute go participate in Showtime's big boxing attraction.
HBO's gonna have to show him the money to keep him now, because they only had a deal to show this fight. To my knowledge, there was no multi-fight contract between Bute and HBO- I might be wrong on that if somethings changed, though.
Hmm, I really don't know. I just assumed because of Bute's ass-kissing post fight comments about Lewis and **** like that.
Whether he fights in the tourney or fights the winner of it, we win for a change. Want to see more fights out of the Bell Center. That place is wild.
Nothing wrong with kissing a little ass to get in good graces before negotiations. It definitely couldn't hurt to suck up to the people who might well be paying to show your fights in the future.
Don't forget that in the talent impoverished Canadian boxing circles, Lewis is GOD.Aside from Chuvalo, Gatti and Ruddock, Lewis is the history of Canadian boxing. Bute just gave him respect and hopes to follow in the man's foot steps.
