It was a serious body shot, and Bute has some serious power. Damn fast and skilled too.
He's gotten a lot of flack for the Marlon slow count, and I think it has caused a lot of peoole to forget the 11 rounds of domination over Andrade before it.
Body shots are underappreciated, no doubt. Not as exciting as a head snapping punch and the flurry that follows to end most KO fights, but meh, are a painful part of boxing. Ive only ever been hit with a good one once and it is something. All I could do was make a quick decision, "Alright then, do I throw up on the canvas, or on the Bastards shoes who just did this to me?"
