Andrade-Bute II Picks
Graham Houston (fightwriter.com/Boxing Monthly magazine)
“Bute should win again — he should be savvy enough to improve on his performance in the first bout and box his way to a clear points victory. The path will be strewn with danger, though, and while I am expecting a win for Bute I have the sense that Andrade will be in with a chance for the duration of the contest”.

“Hitting Andrade isn’t the problem. That will happen in spades. Hurting Andrade is out of the question; it hasn’t happened in a long time, and until it does, I won’t believe it’s possible. Outboxing Andrade is a given. Mikkel Kessler — whose boxing skills have been called into question after the beating Andre Ward laid on him Saturday — did it, and Bute did it, too. I think he’ll do it again. Bute by unanimous decision”.
Doug Fischer (ringtv.com)
“Spurred on by a wildly supportive hometown crowd, Bute will alternately box and trade with Andrade in the final two rounds. He will get rocked by Andrade’s uppercuts and chopping right hands but he will hold on during the rough spots and make it to the final bell with a slight lead on the scorecards”.
James Slater (eastsideboxing.com)
I see Andrade getting to Bute by the halfway stage of the fight and hitting and hurting him enough to discourage the champion, and making him have flashbacks of that awful 12th-round in the first fight. Hurt like never before in his career, Bute knows he was “gone,” and that he was very lucky not to have been KO’d. This time, though Andrade will once again be behind on points at the time, Bute will get stopped. I go for Andrade by 9th or 10th-round TKO.
Boxing News magazine.
“Good, mobile boxer Bute managed to keep Andrade at bay for most of the first fight without hurting him and can hang on a bit longer this time to win on points”.
Result: Bute 4 Andrade 1
