I will be cheering for Froch against Ward. Froch is a warrior and the most exciting Super Middleweight. It should be a great fight with Ward. But at this moment, I have Ward slightly above Froch due to Kessler. Bute has become a distant 3rd due to quality of competition.
I think Bute is overrated. I think Froch or Ward would wipe the floor with him. I think he is a great guy though...very classy. In fact all three of those dudes are cool with me. I likes all the guys in the super 6 tourney really...no thugs to speak of.
Ward has proven he is the best by beating superior competition. Bute has been beating bums. I mean anybody can look good playing street ball but Ward is in the Pros.
I agree, and Ward should definitely be the betting favourite whoever he fights at the moment. But saying Bute has fought nobody is big statement. 1 KO against Andrade (Who has an iron chin) and 2 KO's against Miranda and McGee - what he has shown in those fights is enough for me to think that this kid might be the most dangerous fighter in this division. But he is clearly not the betting favourite against Ward or Froch atm.
You gotta love SMW, definitely one of the most exciting divisions, if not the most exciting.
Most, if not all list have Ward higher than Froch.. So shut it..
Check his resume? the resume where he lost to Kessler, the same Kessler Ward dominated? Please

You are right friend,between SMW and Jr WW those two div are smoking hot right now..LW is not bad either tho..
LOL @ Froch being the best.. Are people forgetting he lost to Kessler AND Dirrell(Dirrell was robbed)
You have to look not only at records, but skills and how they perform in the ring.. Old man Johnson was tagging Froch repeatedly.. Froch defense is leaky..
Ward is #1
I guess Kessler is #2, then Froch maybe..
Ward is the most talented, but that doesn't necessarily win you fights at the top.
The winner of Froch/Ward will be the rightfull number 1 man in the division.
Until Bute fights a top 5 opponent, he isn't worth mentioning. Skilled? Yes. Proven? No.
