    Bute always looks stiff to start off, like he isn't fully warmed up. He might struggle with a fast starter, but Berrio was taylor made really because of his looping punches.
    I'm glad I could watch it on tv. I find Bute has a mechanical style, but normally lets his hands go more than in this fight. I thought he looked stiff and tired by the middle rounds. He just wasn't throwing as much as usually. Berrio did make it difficult just by having an awkward lunging style. Good fight for Bute and a great finish.

    I think Bute would have a hard time with a guy that can swarm him, like Calzaghe. Calzaghe is faster and throws punches non-stop from weird angles. He's more suited to slower or more mechanical fighters.

      I think Bute's biggest problem with Joe would be that Joe is fast and starts very quickly. He also throws from odd angles. But I definitely think that Kessler would be a harder fight for Bute. His fast straight punches would prevent Bute from being able to slip everything and the way he inches back in a straight line would be trouble.

      Kessler KOs Bute, Zaghe decisions him. But being the 3rd best in the world isn't bad.

            I don't mean it should have been on PPV, I was just expecting it to be PPV. I think free to air is a much better way to go.


            Also, to be clear, I think Kessler and Calzaghe both beat Bute.

              Well, no **** buddy. Lol, Butes not a moron like froch. Bute will not take a fight with the winner of Calzaghe/Kessler next because he knows that he still needs to improve. But I can see Bute beating froch and thats not a bad fight for him to take. Froch is a **** talker and his resume is ****, and Bute has a far superior resume compared to Froch. Though, Froch does hit hard and I think Butes chin may have questions. And Froch will be able to land some punches on Bute, but if bute has a good defense he should be able to beat froch by decision.

                I think you are going to find out you are wrong. If the bet is 10 1/2 rounds that means you are betting that the fight go's past 1 minute 30 seconds of the 11 round.
                I believe this fight was stopped at 1 minute 25 seconds of the 11 round.
                If this is the case, you lost by 5 seconds.

                I hope I am wrong but I don't think so.
