Librado Andrade vs Lucian Bute My Thoughts.

[killersheep]

I thought he fought an almost perfect fight against Librado Andrade,

Disagree here. His inside game is pants. He is a great boxer, when he can move away and potshot, but when Andrade got inside, he just held, and held often and held more. This is not a hate letter against Bute, just an observation, Kessler is much more the complete package IMO. Because of all the holding he was doing I couldn't say that he fought a perfect fight anymore than I could say John Ruiz has ever fought a perfect fight.

When I think perfect fight I think Mayweather vs. Gatti, or Calzaghe vs. Lacy.
