Butaev vs Stanionis has FOTY potential IMO.

I mean don't get me wrong, beating a veteran fighter like Dulorme who is skilled is a good accomplishment but that was a tight fight until the end. Six months later, we saw what Ennis did to Dulorme but comparing the two isn't exactly fair since no one rates them on the same level.

    Just think Butaev is the better fighter. Shame that Bes***** tested positive and threw his career away as he could have been a good contender.
    Yeah I don’t see that much between them, just going off the eye test I get the impression that Stanionis is slightly faster and has the crisper combinations. Could very well be wrong though, excited for this fight.

      Not about being hurt but I did see Stanionis looking a bit confused vs Dulorme at times and just seemed to lose a little focus. Butaev is mentally tougher IMO and that will be proven tomorrow night. Butaev by late stoppage or decision win where he puts it on Stanionis late!

        Stanionis seems to have a solid guard/defence.

        Looks a little harder to be hit clean

            Exactly, 2 fights ago after beating Butaev. Stanionis might have his hands full but he can pull it off.
