    Just what we need, a dirty, boring cherry-picker making a comeback. If he isn't coming back to fight Beterbiev, Bivol or Canelo, I'm not interested.

      He didn't "avoid" any fights...only fight that MOST PEOPLE would agree they wanted to see was Calzaghe, and Calzaghe avoided him and chose to fight washed up Jones and Hopkins instead.

        Bute, 30, fought two fights in a row on Showtime, in late 2008 and early 2009, but he was not invited to join the Super Six when Hershman put it together in July 2009. Hershman said his exclusion was nothing against Bute. He said the tournament was very difficult to put together and "the only way to get five promoters and six fighters on the same page was within the existing relationships I had. It wasn't that I didn't think [Bute and Bedard] were worthy or trustworthy. I just didn't have the depth of the relationship I had with the others."
        You're trying your best aren't you?

        Bute wasn't ORIGINALLY one of the 6. But after Jermain Taylor was knocked out by Abraham, Lucian Bute was then invited. But only on condition the other fighters accepted. They all did bar one. That was Andre Ward. But i've explained it to you so you can't pretend you've forgotten or didn't know.

        Why did Andre ward threaten to walk from the Super Six if Lucian Bute was allowed to enter the tournament if he didn't duck him? Simple question.

        Ward isn't worthy of the HOF. But Americans have been accepted in even though they're far from worthy. Most Americans in the HOF are not worthy. Carl Froch is a legitimate ATG. His resume backs that up. If Froch doesn't get in, it will again show the illegitimacy of the clown show.

          "Most people" only exist in your mind, because no one wanted to see the fight. Calzaghe retired after the Jones fight of Nov 2008. Ward was fighting bums with no one knowing he even existed at that time. The last fight at SM, the weight class Ward was fighting in, was against Kessler in Nov 2007. Joe's last 2 fights were at Light heavy. So stop with the delusional lies that usually come out of your asylum. It's on the same level of those morons over you way saying Joe ducked James Toney. Even though Calzaghe didn't fight for his first world title until Oct of 1997. James Toney was at Cruiserweight in Feb of 1997.

          It would be nice if your lies and slander were actually based in intellect. But no, they're bottom of the swamp level of ******. It's to be expected though, considering.

              Ward wasn’t even ranked at that time dude. No one had ever heard of the Californian headbutter.

                Canelo will *** him up

                he keeps saying he would have could have beat nelo

                37 and hasnt fought in 4 years

                ref will like canelo and not allow ward's bs wrestling and low blows

                T-Rex armed Canelo will beat him at any weight of ward's choosing. Canelo is in his absolute prime, the peak where physical prime and experience together are maximized, nobody beats canelo out there today. 90s RJJ, sure but there is no 90s RJJ these days, today p4p number 1 is Canelo

                    ward went in a tissy fit with his promoter and gave up 4 years in his prime fighting tomato cans. I can assure you that people didnt want to see him fight those 4 uber drivers between kovalev and dawson

                      Andre Ward is the second greatest fighter of our era. It is so direspectful to Andre AND the sport of boxing to say stuff like this
