    Speaking of Bute, Dec I just saw Bute-Berrio and I take back that whole "not solid" chin argument. Last I checked Alejandro had some legit power and Bute took a lot of those shots fluidly.

    One step at a time, Look what happened to Juan Diaz they say? I'm sure the board was burning with fire with every poster on the site SCREAMING "oh, ****! Juan has gone one step too far in taking on Nate Campbell".

    Poo-Pee.

    Bute KO 9.

    Yeah...Berrio has serious one-punch KO power and, unlike Froch, he doesn't set up his punches, but, due to his fluid, cunning style, throws them unexpectedly. His hands don't look heavy because of his style, but he sure does punch hard, unexpectedly. Bute has a very good chin. If only his defence and jab were as good as his chin...

    Luckily his major flaws are fixable...and he's experienced a nice array of fighters so far in grizzled vets (Joppy), dirty sloppy fighters (Bika) and nasty power punchers (Berrio).

    He's got some time...I think in a year or two Lucian will be very VERY good.

    He needs to face some good southpaws now and, more importantly, at least one good pressure fighter...like Andrade. I have a feeling pressure is what Bute likes least. Larsen would be a good fight in May because Larsen is a southpaw who will test Bute's defence.

    I remember there being some clamouring about a Bute-Andrade fight although those plans seem to be on the backburner for now. I'd put money on Lucien by a wide majority decision.

    Against Kessler? Bute just doesn't have the tattoos to pull it off. Kessler by KO in the middle rounds.

    Andrade and Stieglitz fight it out tomorrow to become Bute's mandatory for September!

    If Bute wins his next fight, he will end up fighting one of them, most likey Andrade!:deal

    Fair and balanced. :nod

    I'll grant that Bute might win a round or two against Kessler - those are high marks, indeed!
