It isn't an immediate rematch with Librado Andrade, but with Bute as the IBF champ, fighting at the Bell Centre in Montreal this week, and Andrade in an IBF title eliminator against Vitali Tsypko at the Bell Centre in Montreal in three weeks, the table could be set for an eventual return match.
Lu is my folks but Zuniga is not a walk over fight and he has the perfect style to upset Bute. After saying that; if Lu uses that great ring generalship and the sticks to the fight plan Bute UD. If he is not in shape or tries to match Zuniga's punch rate it could be a long night.:kick:
i was gonna say - if it's Fulgencia he doesn't have a shot in hell of catching up with Bute. he makes Tackie look like Zab Judah.
i don't get it. Lacy is a bum because he struggles with Tsypko (with an injured shoulder), but now all of the sudden Tsypko is going to give Andrade, a proven commodity, a war? Lacy's problem is all you have to do is tie him up because he has almost no outside game, doesn't jab much and loads up way too much.
are you serious? you don't think Andrade would beat him in a rematch? who do you think is the best at 168? Kessler?
Xplosive please,.. that's the equivalent of saying, that a horse, is 'probably' bigger than a blue whale, and an ant.
No. I think Bute would win a rematch, and I like Andrade alot. And yes, I believe Kessler's the best at 168.
Great solar plex shot...I mean ouch... But I didn't like the stoppage, none of the punches Bute threw after that even landed....but Zuniga wasn't firing back....he was just tryin to recover from that body shot...can't believe he got up...
Gotta ADMIT, REED Initially PANICKED when he Saw the SAME Ref that FUCKED Andrade N his Fight w/Bute...But Dude Went that EXTRA Mile N the OPPONENTS Favor to Make Sure that HE WASN'T Gonna Get Caught Up in ANY Controversy... Bute DISMANTLED Zuniga, Bottom Line...Since Bute is a PROVEN DRAW @ the Crib, he NEEDS to Rectify the Issue w/Andrade....That's THE ONLY Thing Holding Bute Back from ACCEPTANCE... REED:hammert:
It WASN'T???...DAMN!!!!:doh: REED Saw a BALD, BLACK, CANADIAN Ref & ASSumed it was the SAME Cat from Bute-Andrade....Least he Got Thru the Bout Controversy FREE.... REED:dunno:
Fulgencia should not be fighting at 168. He was slow at 154. Bute needed an easy mark to restore his repuation after essentially losing to Andrade. If he doesn't rematch Andrade, we can all assume he's afraid of him because it's a fight that every boxing fan would want to see - there's no reason it shouldn't get made, just like Miranda got his second shot at Abraham.
