    Lucian Bute is the best super middleweight in the world.

    He will become the first man to KO Glen Johnson.

          Fuck Bute, but I'll approve of this in the meantime. Ward-Froch 2 1/2 months away.

            Bute is a 1 trick pony, We all see it and hopefully you all realize it. The fighter that beats him right now will most likely be a southpaw. Someone with the same stance as him because it makes it far more difficult for him to land that counter upper. That is the reason why any southpaw he's faced has looked better than the orthodox opponents despite them being weaker opposition.

            Glen will walk into butes upper, this wont end well. Head AND body, all night.
            you haven't been paying attention then

            Bute has been working on various things, and it is showing in his fights

            you just haven't noticed : much better right hand (hook and jab in his last 2 fights)

            also, he didn't use to be such a dangerous puncher : he used to wrk in combos more, and wasn't sitting as much on his punches as he is now

            now, he tries to make every punch count, everything is crisp and powerful

            it's obvious Larouche wants to developp Bute into a 2 handed fighter, and it's already showing

I understand he wanted Kessler, that's good for him, but I think he wanted Kessler cause he didn't look THAT good in hs comeback fight, even though he won by stoppage. Bute was eager to fight Kessler for a reason. With a good win over Stieglitz, Kessler would be completely ready and no longer rusty. Johnson>Pavlik BTW. I like this fight more.
            what are you talking about

            Kessler looked great in dispatching that tomato can

            tomato can or not, we could see Kessler's game was on top

            he was even using that beautiful left to the body of his that he hadn't been using for a long time

              it is medium risk low reward

                Hopkins already stopped him.

                  Didn't really ko him though or even put him down.

                    Bute wins this, but can he knock him out? If he can, then we know he is the real deal. Glen Johnson has a hell of a chin and if it gets smashed then we know Bute's power is for real.

                      Johnson looked pretty good in there against Froch. This fight will be a good test to see if Bute is world class or a pretender. I mean, Froch's victory over Johnson was not an easy one, and personally I think Froch is a lot better than Bute.

                      It's a good fight. We're not coming out of a fight with Johnson without a clear picture of how good Bute really is.

                      And I LOVE to see Glen getting another title shot. He's deserved every one.
