Bute gets the UD win here

Lol that 118/110 is hilarious. He must have scored the fight in the afternoon.

I actually had the fight 117-111.

You have to admit that a "lot" of round were close. And while I find that Bute passed way too much time in the rope, Grachev never really land a big punch. But still, Bute never really shake him (except in the 12th round).

A lot of round were quite even in my opinion (Grachev was more aggresive, Bute landed more punch) but I ound the 115-113 scoring more off chart than 118-110.

Not a bad fight, but unless Grachev is really that tough, this isn't a good comeback for Bute and it doesn't look good for him for a Froch rematch.

I see the leaning but 118/110 is about 2 rounds away from a total wash. That simply didn't happen and I'm a huge Bute fan. Imo the 12thround won it for him. 115/113 is much more indicative of what I watched. Where was that 12th round Bute for the previous 33 minutes is anyone's guess. Grachev watched tape and mimicked him from the orthodox stance like a mirror image and Bute fell for it.

I agree, that card was ridiculous. It was a close fight, I think 115-113 Bute is a fair score.

Grachev's punches were doing more damage to Bute when they landed, although Bute was more accurate and landed more.
