    Default Will Lucian Bute be the 2nd guy to knock Johnson out?

    Age can creep up anytime now and those mileages might be more apparent against a speedy southpaw like bute.

    How much of a factor you think Bute's bodypunching will be and do you see a stoppage?

    I think Bute probably could stop him, but hearing how much these two have sparred I have a gut feeling he might just be happy going through the motions to some extent. I don't really hope I'm wrong either as I really like Johnson and don't want to see him take a beating. In any event I don't think Johnson has much chance to win and really wont take much interest in Bute until he fights more of a live threat. Ward, Pascal, Froch or Kessler would all be great opponents for him with a much better shot to win.

    I really like Johnson but i can see him getting taken out in the late rounds, he doesnt seem to have much left anymore.

    If anyone's getting stopped it'll be Bute down the stretch, and even that is unlikely.

    Bute is very fast and a great body puncher, he has great accuracy and placement of his punches.

    That said, I'll be rootin for Johnson to pull it off one more time, tho he looks to have slipped just a bit in his last fight.

    Does Bute hit any harder than Froch ? No.

    Higher ko % and has stopped Andrade. That in itself means something.

    Possibly, but Bute is the better puncher with the faster handspeed and he can catch johnson with something he dont see..

    JOhnson has a granite chin but nobody can stand up to a well placed bodyshot...

    Johnson had that beaten look on his face last time and this could be the end of the road for him..

    I believe there's a fairly good chance of Bute knocking him out.

    If Johnson can keep things close, stay on Bute's chest I think things could get very interesting down the stretch. Johnson also has a good body attack & that southpaw killer right hand

    JOhnson runs out of gas here, time's up, just like will happen to Toney.
    Bute KO 6.

    I have a feeling this fight ends inside the 12 , either could win it.

    It's an exciting fight even if Johnson has lost three of his last five. Rightly or wrongly, Bute has a certain aura of vulnerability to him since the first Andrade fight. Here's the thing Bute has faced good pressure fighters in the past -Bika and Anrade - it's actually a style that he may have somewhat down at this point.

    Who do you think benefited more from the 50 rounds or something of sparring that Johnson and Bute have done together?

    Bute has more punching power than Froch. I'm not sure who said he didn't, but that is wrong at least on paper. Froch has knocked out 4 people in his last 10 fights and he hasn't knocked out anyone in his last 4; Bute has knocked out 8 of his last ten and is on a six fight knockout streak. Froch's competition has been better, but I haven't heard anyone of his recent competition say that Froch packs a huge punch. Bute's power comes from his speed, which is different than Froch's power.

    That said, this fight will be a good guage of where Bute stands in comparison with Froch since Johnson just fought Froch and lost a mixed decision. Will Bute do better than Froch or not?

    Froch-vs-Bute punching power? Common opponents - Sergey Tatevosyan and Brian Magee.

    Result - Bute beats Tatevosyan UD. Froch beats him by sparkage KO 2. Bute stops Magee in 10. Froch, with a broken thumb, puts a prime Magee to sleep in the 11th.

    On all known collateral form Froch punches harder that Bute. Fact.
