    I don't know, but I will be more likely to buy the PPV if it is.

    PPVs should always have a good undercard fight or two.

      Good news. Still I find the offer very low. Recession has hit hard in America evidently.

      I'm happy for Andrade that he get's his rematch, but what happened to the Bute-Froch unification?

        Bute wanted his rematch with Andrade first. I think they could've done both deals, but Interbox did what Bute wanted, and it was Andrade.

          Froch v Arthur A in his first fight at 168 then???? that would be a good scrap

            Ok. I take my hat off to Bute then. Giving Andrade a rematch is the fair thing to do.

                it'll make for a boxing card worth it's cost at least

                i'm very glad this is happening before Froch/Bute. Andrade deserves his shot and has a great chance at winning IMO

                and if he does pull off the upset, we might get Froch/Andrade, which would be absolutely insane

                  I look forward to Andrade claiming his title from Bute and then KOing Froch for his next fight.

                    If I were Bute I would have taken the Froch fight first. He outboxed Andrade but he was there the whole night and Bute barely escaped.

                    I think that he could hurt Froch and keep him away most of the fight.

                    I do have to give him his due though for rematching Andrade, it should be a great fight.

                      Not many fights to look forward to in July and August, but there LOTS of good matchups like Bute-Andrade coming up in the fall!
