Heres a clip of andrade coming out of his corner while the count was on. Watch the bottom of the screen in the actual ring,not the big screen at 1:25. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66CO0lksoEo&feature=related
And that's because the ref stopped him to go further! Imagine, the Showtime super analysts said he stayed all the time in his corner. Ha! we were 16 000 in Belle Center to see Andrade go out of hi corner.
Charles is usually ok but Farhood is an idiot.The ref did it by the book,sadly for him his title fights are gone
Yeah, I noticed that too. At one point, he almost pushed the referee to one side to get going, before the command!:? No wonder the referee was pissed off with him when he left his corner and walked hafl way down the road to Bute.
sign me up....his fight vs. Andrade was his first fight i've seen, and i must say as for as pure boxing goes....he's one of the best p4p, fast hands, good footwork, rolls under punches, and picks his shots good...he reminds me of Zab Judah too (good thing?)....real slick southpaw, nice left uppercut, arrogant boxing style, fast hands....well i dont think he has the power and in-fighting of zab though but still, he's pretty amazing to watch Lucian Bute is officially my new favorite White Fighter....he's the future of 168, step aside Kessler and Calz
Bika, Berrio and Andrade are far superior to anyone on Froch record. Just admit it already. You can believe Froch is better then Bute. You can believe he would beat Bute. That is your opinion and I respect it. But to say Froch has had better opposition is ridiculous. I'm one to believe that you can't rank a fighter based on his potential or "what he might do" if you prefer. I think fighters should be ranked based on their accomplishments. More importantly recent accomplishments. Personally I don't give a damn about what a fighter did 5 years ago. If he has fought nothing but tomato cans in the last 2 years (*cough* Mundine *cough*). He shouldn't be ranked ahead of fighters who fought and beat legitimate top10 fighters.
Andrade's team did not file a petition with the IBF so this mean won't be required to rematch Andrade immediately. I wish they would fight Andrade after the Larsen fight but from what Bute's trainer said in an interview. We could have to wait until 2010 because there are already projects for 2009.
