      Going to see more of Ward before picking.

      Ward beating Kessler in the hometown doesn't do too much for me.

      Ward should show some balls and fight outside of Oakland. Would have far more respect for Ward if he went and fought outside of the United States Of America.

        you guys act like bute hasn't faced anyone.... i mean his resume isn't top class like ward's or direll's, but i know for a fact that he has a great shot of knocking out ward


        it took ward 12 rounds to beat miranda (UD)

        Bute knocked miranda out in 3.....

            2. bute-big and long and is great at placing punches with great power. decent resume of bika, berrio, zuniga, miranda, and andrade. this is no calzaghe title defense run of pudwills, mcyintres and branko sobots.

            3. direll-good boxing and speed but seems fragile

            4. abraham-great power and knows how to turn it on late but is mr. complainy pants

            5. froch-just lost a close fight to kessler but has a better resume than kessler and a higher upside unless abraham kills him.

            6. kessler-didn't look very good in his last 3 fights against top competition and his subpar resume might have hidden this from us all along. has an easy fight vs green next but after that don't see him doing much.
            Horrible rankings. How can Dirrell be above Froch and Froch above Kessler? Are you saying that results doesn't matter and only your own personal scoring via a bad internetstream does?

            Who won Ali-Norton III?? And what about Holmes-Spinks II?? Or De La Hoya-Sturm???

              Ward is the best because of the way he trashed Kessler (even Calzaghe didn't dominate like that).

              Dirrell's gotta be number two because he embarrassed Froch and was doing the same to Abraham (even dropped him).

              Bute's ranking is basically on potential. He's beaten gatekeepers, but that's about it.

              Abraham and Kessler are interchangeable to me. I wouldn't argue with either being 5 or 6.

              Froch has to be the worst since he lost to 2 guys on the list (screw the hometown judges, Dirrell beat Froch by a huge margin).
              I agree completely. Kessler and Abraham are basically even for me.

                  I think Bute's resume is a better than Ward's. People dont give Bika enough credit, but he would be tough for anybody. Also Bute has other contenders on his resume that he beat.

                    I agree that's why i have him bottom out of the current S6 (not counting Green)

                    Ward : decent resume + he beat the man at SMW = fact

                    Kessler : Lost to ward, but was the SMW n1 before, then beat Froch (the other SMW champ)

                    Froch : Best resume at SMW maybe? Pascal, Taylor, Dirrel and close loss to Kessler

                    Dirrel : Doing well vs AA was wilting a bit under pressure, but he outbox AA 10 rounds straight and got a win. Vs Froch he lost (officially) and his running + Froch's recent run at SMW im gonna put him behind Froch.

                    AA: Beat a Taylor Froch and Pavlik had brutally KTFO, then lost 10 rounds clear to Dirrel.. that to date is HIS 2 FIGHTS AT SMW!! how can he be high on anyones list??
