לוסיאַן ביוט (ל) is fighting for a chance at his 14טה וועלט טיטל קאַמף
מאָנטרעאַל (פעברואַר 16, 2017) – Former world super middleweight champion לוסיאַן ביוט plans to parlay his February 24טה Canadian showdown with undefeated World Boxing Council (וובק) Silver light heavyweight champion עלעידער “שטורעם” אַלוואַרעז into his 14טה world title fight later this year.
The 36-year-old Bute (32-3-1, 25 קאָס) is challenging Colombia-native Alvarez (21-0, 10 קאָס) for his WBC Silver title belt in the 12-round main event headlining “BUTE VS.

Bute also hopes to become the first Romanian-born boxer to capture world titles in two different weight classes as the Bute-Alvarez winner in this final WBC eliminator will become the mandatory challenger for his GYM stablemate, reigning WBC and lineal light heavyweight champion אַדאָניס “סופּערמאַן” סטיוואַנסאַן (28-1-0, 23 קאָס).

Bute was one of the world’s top pound-for-pound fighters for nearly five years (אקטאבער. 19, 2007-מייַ 26, 2012) as the International Boxing Federation (יבף) 168-פונט אָפּטייל מייַסטער. The classy southpaw is 10-2-1 (8 קאָס) in world title fights and he has defeated six world champions: Dingaan Thobela, סאַקי טאָראַס, Alejandro Berrio, וויליאם דזשאָפּפּי, Brian Magee און גלען זשאנסאן during his outstanding 13-year pro boxing career.
Now ranked No. 7 דורך די וובק, Bute is as hungry as he’s every been for one more world title shot opportunity. “I am fighting an undefeated Olympian who is the No. 1 ranked light heavyweight,” Bute געזאגט. “A win will conform that I deserve a 14טה world championship fight. עס מיטל אַלץ צו מיר. I took this fight because it’s the shortest road for me to get a world title shot.
“I expect a technical fight. Alvarez is gifted and he has a good jab, but my experience and speed will make the difference. I will definitely win!”
