How can beating Johnson, at the very bottom of the stack, qualify Bute to fight the elites at the top, I.E., Ward/Froch? The Bum hasn't even faced an AA, Quillan, Pavlik, or even b level Kessler.
atsch Talk about a list of elite 168lbs. Is this the same AA who never beat a single real good 168lbs and got his jaw shattered by Miranda?..... You should quit ESB, its getting worse every time you post. At this rate you will be the new finito real soon. :hi: clown!
and Bute has? No he hasn't. In fact, where AA met these elites and lost, Bute has never been in the ring with one. Not one! :rofl Lord, why does ESB attract every whining **** stained panty waist across the globe, and especially, Canada? Go watch Oprah and take a douche Sugar lips, and leave the sport of boxing to us men.
it all comes down to can bute take glens shots. u kno hes gunna get hit lets see if he can take the shots like froch can and not like all green can. because glen is gunna b able to hit ne one he fights he smart n crafty n nos all the tricks to the trade. if bute can take his shots i think he can knock glen out with the body due 2 glens age an him always moving up and down in weight can wrk agaisnt him possibly in takin shots punchinn power n all that . which in the froch fight his punches didnt look hard or its just that frochs chin is just that rock solid i think it way both
Good analysis, but I wouldn't quite say it's a make or break fight for Bute. He's an undefeated champion, his position is pretty secure. I think the lessons that he learned in his fights with andrade will serve him well in this fight. Glen Johnson is pretty unstoppable, but Bute's awkward style a his great reflexes might be the one thing to finally overwhelm Johnson
Anyone watched rounds 7 & 8 of Froch-Johnson recently? Pressure was on big fukkin time, and with quite a bit more punches thrown than what Andrade was throwing at Bute. Froch took a lot of overhand rights flush on the jaw & temple. Rebounded right back with hook combos. If Bute takes his share of rights flush, would ESB as a whole accept that Bute's got a decent chin? Just wondering where the hate will be focused on after the Johnson fight. Hate Patrol out.
At this stage in his career, and Johnson is STILL his most difficult fight. Now that should be real cause for LMFAO seeing that BoxingRec has him as #1 SMW. atsch
Glen Johnson does not possess one punch power, so one can't say whether or not Lucians chin is above average or just average, should he take punches from Glencoffe. Glen has power, sure.. but he's not an elite puncher. What he is, however.. is a very formidable pressure boxer, and Bute is going to have to show adaptability should the fight go to the deep waters. :smoke
READ SLOWLY. I never said or classified Quillan as "elite". I said Froch/Ward are elites. English is not my 1st language either.
