    Decent fight, I am pretty sure Bute beats him fairly easily though. Bute will fight his style which does give Johnson an opportunity to land some fire but at this stage of his career I just think Bute has to much gas in the tank to get beat by a guy like Johnson.

    A younger more spry Johnson I would favor to beat Bute though because he would most likely be tough enough to take Bute's fire while slowly breaking him down. Maybe he can turn back the clock one last time but I just don't find it likely.

        Beware of the upset if Johnson can weather the early storm from Bute. I still havent seen Bute tested in the later rounds since the first Andrade fight and we all saw how that went.

          This isn't good enough. Bute is turning into the new Calzaghe. He's had the belt for about 4 years now and he still hasn't face anybody above B level. It's time. It's been time. Step it up. I love Johnson, but he hasn't beaten anybody of note in years.

            Hopkins got the KO....i agree though that Bute might stop him.

              Bute will end up facing the winner of the Super 6 provided he keeps winning.

                This should be a great measuring stick for Bute.

                Looking forward to it.

                  This should be a good fight well see if Bute belongs in the ruling elite in the 168 division.

                    Glen has shown age, but maintains enough fire to be dangerous
                    really want him to beat Bute, but time may catch up to him finally
                    Bute on points, another close one Glen loses
                    he just doesn't have the power to force KO's, which he needs
                    Glen always gasses late

                      This will be a very difficult test for Bute, if he cant hurt Johnson early, get some respect and Johnson is able to effectively pressure him I dont see Bute winning this one.
