    Bika uses the head butt, so there's a chance Bute will be badly cut and Bika will win by TKO.

        Having watched some videos of Bute on YouTube, he appears to be able to punch hard enough to stop Bika in a later round. This matchup reminds me of Pavlik vs. Miranda, because Bute has a similar style to Pavlik, and Bika moves like Miranda in the ring.

          Well, if Lucian Bute wins this, he'll be considered a top level contender, and so I bet we'll see him on HBO before too long! He's well liked by his Quebec fans, including a female following, and has the potential to attain widespread popularity.


          Right now he is the biggest draw in Canada. Should have been on HBO already!

            I wasn't impressed with Bute, I was waiting for him to time a fast straight left shot just as Bika throws a wide loopy slow bomb and hurt him and try to pull out an impressive stoppage, It didn't happen and IMO Bute let this fight be more competitive than It should have been

              Yes, indeed! That was how Antonio Tarver knocked out Roy Jones. Apparently Bute has learned that trick yet.
