Why nobody is talking about Lucian Bute.... ?

[$Bullsfam$]

Because he's a bum. Who cares if he KO'd a shot out Edison Miranda?

Froch would trash him. Abraham would trash him. Glenn Johnson would probably trash him. Ward and Dirrell would embarass him. Kessler will probably trash him and expose him once and for all when they fight. ***** Jermain Taylor would embarass him winning on points until he got KO'd with 1 second left in the 12th round.

not great, shouldnt be a threat to anyone at the top of 168, but gave Froch a damn good fight a couple of years ago. think it was about 5 rds each before Froch landed a bomb and Magee got stretchered out.

Bute will probably win by KO, but i think Magee will surprise a few people in the fight he puts up.

yep Magee got stretchered out. And Froch had trouble with him before that, dont make it sound like a 1 sided beat down cos it wasnt.

QFT. As far as mandatories go it isn't a terrible opponent at all.

[Joeyzagz]

Because he is not even a top 3 SMW.

No one gives a phuck.

Why nobody is talking about Lucian Bute, its fight is tomorrow. We are talking about the best 168 pounds boxer in the World guys.

Wake up.

he's the second best.
andre ward has a better body of work than does bute of late
let's not kid ourselves. bute was knocked out by liberado andrade.


bute made a poor decision staying out of the super six
he froze himself out from the big fights


when he gets the chance to fight somebody other than the brian mcgee's of the world then he will get the attention he deserves

[mathed]

When Bute fights Ward, I'll talk about him. Magee is not a name that pops in my head when I think about a great fight.

[Tiozzo]

If i were u i'd be glad about no-one talking about him atm, cos 2moro night there's gonna 100s of threads saying he got "exposed" and was a "hype job" after the Magee fight.

And they'll all be right.

sig worthy tomorrow night

1)Why nobody is talking about Lucian Bute, its fight is tomorrow. 2)We are talking about the best 168 pounds boxer in the World guys.

Wake up.

1) Because he only fights in Canadia and French Canadia at that...

2) No you're not.

3) Next ****** question.

[Heavy Hitter]

Hard to get excited for this guy, every time I see the guy I just remember him making a fool of himself against Andrade the 1st time. Not being professional enough to leave anything in the tank for the last round, getting KO'd and being on the benefit end of one of the biggest screw jobs in boxing in the past 25 years.

[Steak]

ok, I dont think Bute is the best guy at 168 or anything, but there is no way that the 1st Andrade-Bute fight was a 'screw job'. Bute got up before the count of ten legitimately, and literally the fight was over by then. The ref was crooked no doubt, but it did not have any impact on the knockdown in the last round.

Bute got up legitimately, and the fight was over by the time the mandatory 8 count was finished.

[paulf]

He hasn't done **** yet. He signed with HBO when all the good SMW fighters are at Showtime. Yawn.

Note: Look at the TS' username. Obviously Canadian, haha.
