    I didn't hear the Andrade-Pryor Jr results. I'm glad Andrade lost, I'm sick of hearing him as potential opponents for the better SMWs. I never saw what people loved about him.

      Andrade is a hell of a fighter with a big heart.

      he should have been awarded with that belt in the first Bute fight and also has very good wins on his resume.

      a true Mexican warrior.

        Interesting, were you not impressed with his displays againt Bute (1st time), current WBO 168lb champ Robert Stieglitz(Won Via KO), & Yusaf Mack(Won via KO)

        I was very shocked to see Pryor beat him. Although I do feel Librado is past his best. I'd say his best days were in 2008.

            I just think his first fight against Bute proved that Bute was not elite, not that Librado was elite. He's not terrible or a "bum" I just think he's compared to the best of the best way too often. I admire the way he goes about things, but that doesn't make him great.

              here on NSB after a loss or couple of losses youre not elite, a bum and you have been overrated.

              "Bute is overrated", I would rather say Andrade is underrated.

              same for Salido, Arce, Vic and all other warriors.

              they are all great boxer, but the hardcore fans want the next Pernall, de la hoya, or Duran right NOW.

                I don't think Bute sucks, I just don't think he beats the likes of Froch, Dirrell, Ward or a healthy Kessler. Many SMW rankings have Bute in the top 2 and I don't see how he's that high up, and I don't believe he has beat anyone to give him that ranking.

                I'm not a NSB idiot who overreacts to everything...

                  You can add Puntillas beating Nakamura

                  and Concepcion being beaten by a journeyman.
