    I'd absolutely love that!

    Glen is a true professional, and it will be Bute's best win. I fear Lucian breaks him down and wins a decision, if not a late stoppage against the old warrior.

    But I'll be cheering for Johnson in this one.

    It's certainly Bute's biggest test since Andrade when he pretty much got knocked out.

    I must admit, I think Bute gets the better of this, and might actually stop Johnson down the stretch. I hope I'm wrong tho.

    Stopping Johnson is a big ask. I'd be very impressed if Bute managed that.

    Ive been going backwards and forwards with this one. I'm going with Bute by close decision but I'm not ruling Jonson out. Even though he's in his 40s his work rate is superb, he puts a lot of pressure on, can dig a bit and has enough experience to put just about anyone of their game.

    Plus I'm still not fully convinced with Bute, this will be his toughest fight to date (on paper at least) and I'm sure we'll find out exactly what he's made of.

    If Bootay's chin doesnt wobble then I think Johnson will get a beating but I wont be surprised if he lasts the distance

    Don't think Bute will stop Johnson. Not unless he lands one of them weird uppercuts to the body absolutely flush.

    Johnson has an iron chin, but Bute can really bang and he's got the technique and timing to catch him clean.... What a statement it would be if Bute was to stop Johnson.

    But most likely it'll be a Bute decision.

    Im rooting for the old man, I think Bute will widely outpoint him though.
