He did waste Andrade for his revenge so I give him that.
Bute-Kessler is where it's at man.Comment

Abraham, Froch, Kessler all have problems when prestented with a opponent who uses angles and lateral movement. Bute and Ward are the 2 best in the division at this, ahead of Dirrell, that's the biggest difference between them. Then obviously Bute's size, hand and foot speed, combinations, body punching, power etc. You're too much of a fanboy to see any of this though.Comment

I, too, give him that, for what it's worth.
But if Bute was the machine his boosters/apologists make him out to be, he wouldn't have been troubled by Andrade in the first place.
If the Kessler fight gets made, one can only hope Mikkel has enough in the tank to add that red strap to his collection and put this putz back in his place.Comment

How has Bute proven that? Against who? Which guy he handled was the litmus test of that?
I can't stand Dirrell, but he's fought and troubled better comp than anything Bute's fought (Froch), is athletically better than Bute and is a more awkward style than, and a step up in overall ability from, anyone Bute's been tangling with. There's nothing to suggest that Bute destroys him or even has a relatively easy time with him.Comment

Bute is a helluva lot more legit than Gumby.Comment

No, he really isn't that much more legit.
All I see is the people you'd expect to boost Bute, based on his European descent, boosting Bute.
Tell me how you gonna label Dirrell a fraud when you're a Bootay Booster? It's hilarious, completely laughable.Comment
