All he had to do was beat the count and he did. The refs warnings to Andrade were after Bute beat the count. The fight is over once he bets the count. I believe the shot was landed with 5 seconds left and Bute stood in 7.
He wasn't able to continue.If Wright would have said take a step Bute would have wobbled or fall down.He was wobbling back to the corner.I really can't stand it
you have to be deemed able to continue and there is no ****ing way Bute could have continued. he was out on his feet. Quit sucking Bute's dick, his legs are wobbly enough as is.
He didn't have to continue because the fight was over. Rather than warn Andrade the ref should have simply ended the bout.
you cant be saved by the bell. you have to be able to continue regardless of what round it is. whether it's the 8th or the 12th, it doesn't matter. Bute could not have continued to fight, he was ****ing GLAZED>
**** that "nut hugger' bull****. It's called an opinion and a point of view, dick. And by the way: What the ref said is irrelevant. What Steve Farhood said is irrelevant What Andrade and Bute said is irrelevant What is important, the only thing, is whether or not Bute made the count. He did. And even if the ref grabbed his gloves and immediately restarted the fight, the time would have been expired. There was no controversy here. I repeat: No controversy.
"Can't be saved by the bell means" if you get knocked down with 2 seconds left, the ref continues to count beyond the 3 minutes. It doesn't mean the ref checks to see if you can continue for a non existent 13th round.
Are you telling me that because Bute was glazed, the ref should have definitively stopped the fight? Isn't that the ref's call, and therefore, subjective? The biggest "fact" that has been presented is that Bute was in no condition to continue. But he was up, looked rough, but he was up. And there was like 2 seconds on the clock. Remember how everyone cried foul when Richard Steele stopped the Taylor/Chavez fight with 2 seconds left? Well this ref let this fight go! It's his CALL!
Are you ******ed? Seriously the fight is not over until the ref declares a fighter fit to continue. What part of you "You cannot be saved by the bell in ANY round, including the 12th and final round" do you not understand?
And you are from Romania so it takes alot of objectivity on your part to even mention that. You are a true fan. These are the types of things that get swept under the rug with bias.
Yeah,well Bute still champ...:tong ....lalala. Really Bute lost but he showed heart and it's just the conditioning made it hard in the last one
