    We already argued about this buddy but if you want a quick analysis I will give you one. Andrade was probably a different referree from stoping bute, so I will compare andrade and abraham. Andrade has a great chin, Abraham has a great chin, Andrade has shitty defense, AA has world class defense, Andrade is a VERY busy fighter wasting a lot of what he throws, AA is NOT a very busy figter with an excellent connect rate, Andrade chases his opponents around, AA waits for the openings and counters, Andrade has power, AA has p4p power, argueably no 1 in boxing today. Andrade does not go to the body enough, or did not in my opinion against BUTE, AA is a very underrated body puncher. With AA's connect rate and the power with what he is delivering, Bute WILL NOT LAST 12 ROUNDS. Bute does not have the power to even faze aa, and bute gets hit a lot more then bute fans want to admit. you heard it here AA KTFO BUTE ROUND 8 or 9!:deal:thumbsup:hi::happy

    He'll still be a danger. He looked very strong in the rematchwith Miranda.

    you got good points and its a good analyse but you forgot something that IMO can make a difference its the height , Andrade his 4 inch taller then Abraham and i never see Bute have a bad fight against smaller opponent
    just look at Bute-Joppy , joppy didnt land a lot and here i dont want to make comparaison between Joppy and Abrahams but just there size.

    Its Bute style to fight tall and it could save his life and make him win if a Abraham-Bute fight happens.

    But Abraham if he move class his a Legitimate Contender for any belt a 168 .

    Abraham is scheduled to fight in March. According to Tom Tocca, who seems to have an inside track to the Abraham camp, the most likely opponent is Enrique Ornelas. This is a guy with recent losses to McKart and Rubio. I will however give credit where it is due. Ornelas is taller and has a higher KO ratio than most of Arthur's previous opponents. However, it's a long damn ways from Ornales to Kessler.

    Why people think AA won't give Kessler problems is beyond me lol... AA will give anyone at 168 problems. Height, weight, reach...that will not be a problem for AA.

    I think Arthur is very strong at middleweight, and obviously his power is huge there. At super middle I'm sure his power is going to be very strong, one of the best for sure, but a slight edge will be taken off it I feel. And I don't think he is somebody that is going to use his speed and boxing skill to outpoint anybody, so its going to be more difficult when his power is not so apparent.

    Still, he's got a tight defence, great chin, and he can swing. So yes of course he is dangerous, he can still knock people out, but I would favour more over him. Mainly due to the better fighters at 168.
