Who is the best SMW in the world?

[krispy kreme]

Ward, Bute is well skilled and talented, but he doesn't have a real good win to put him up there with Ward just yet.

Polls are ******ed... I wouldn't need a thread if I started a poll. To me I wanted the thread so I could read everyone else's opinions. It's good to know a lot of people have mixed opinions about who will win the super six; It only says that the fighters are the best in the world and that this tournament is a positive step for boxing.

Boxing latelly has pissed me off with all the antics... Mayweather / Pac-man is a damn circus. The referees are horrible - did anyone see that last Yuri Foreman fight... Yuri literally has to pivot out of the way of the ref and switch directions and guess what? He tore his knee... Kermit Cintron a bad look for boxing. Joshua Clottey throwing his fight away to Manny was insulting. Oh yea... Raping Holyfield of a decision was BS... Dirrell / Abraham was BS (Only the ending). I could rant forever... Boxing needs to get away from the other stuff and go back to being a pure sport and stop promoting all the wrong things.

Andre Dirrell................

Lucian Bute is the best super middleweight in the world. He's the Ring Magazine #1 SMW, Boxrec #1 SMW, etc. Bute beats everyone in the super six tournament.

Ward, he is the best. He can win easy against Bute and Dirrell

Ward would mule and bear hug Bute into submission. And Dirrell would outbox him.

[Tampatrader0468]

I have to disagree that Dirrell would outbox him... styles make fights.

[BattlingNelson]

Has to be between Ward, Bute and Kessler. No way Dirrell can make it to the top 3. He lost to Froch.

[BoxerDood]

Either Bute, Ward or Abraham. Dirrell has a chance against all three because he's a stylistic nightmare for them and he's skilled, but he's just not as complete right now. He's very clumsy at times and has a lot to learn. One of these days he's gonna get hit while he's slipping/being clumsy and its gonna be ruled a knockdown, even though it isn't. In fact, I think that's what happened in the 10th round of the Abraham fight.

Andre Ward
he will win the series
he'd beat Bute too
