Boxing ain't easy, who said boxing it's easy I dare him to step inside the ring with me for one round, just one. As a spectator it's easy. After a defeat like I suffered in May against Froch to come back against a undefeated fighter resistant who all his life received in kickboxing kicks with the feet and knees in the belly and ribs, he was tough very tough. I hit him seriously I felt it my fist. You know what's important for me and makes me happy?... that I had a 12 rounds fight. If I was winning in the first or second right then they all were saying it was and easy fight for Lucian Bute and all were happy, but in the same time I needed this experience, hard fights await for me. French: %$^$win#$^%the first round%$#@#
Oi lads, get back to scrubbin' the deck, othewise them british pirates will have you hung up to a noose fer display, like your captain Butt.
Larouche says Lucian might have another tune-up until Froch on a TV show at TVA SPORTS: «On n'a pas terminé notre analyse et si on sent que Lucian a besoin d'un autre combat préparatoire, c'est clair qu'on va lui donner. Ce n'est pas pour nous, mais pour lui qu'on fait ça.» http://tvasports.ca/tvasports/combats/archives/2012/11/20121105-103655.html
What if he doesn't look good in the second tune-up either ? They'll ask another tune-up ? That's bull****, he should just avoid Froch IMO and go to light heavy.
I agree with this... but it's not our call. It's mainly Bute's call, even if his team doesn't suggest it. I would agree that he should avoid Froch... I also would want one more tune up fight against a known name. If the Froch fight happens, I wish him the best. If you actually think of the gravity of his 1 loss... it's a crazy one to swallow!
Yep if he loses the second one in the same fashion it would be a carreer ending loss IMO. He would be mentally devastated. I think it would be better if he accepts the loss and goes on, but as you said the choice is his. :good
Meanwhile we will see Lemieux shattering some Armenian glasses , well i thin he is armenian: http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=14515&cat=boxer
Let's not forget Lemieux is Armenian too. :deal Yes that guy seems to be Armenian. :think Never heard of him, has this fight been announced yet ? Edit : what a weird resume, he stopped in 2005 for almost 7 years after a KO defeat to Sergio Martinez. Then he had 3 fights in 2012 and the ****ing idiot lost to a Turk. A TURK. :fire:fire
Not confirmed but someone with good infos wrote it on a french forum ! Forgot about Lemieux biggest flaw :-(
