    Bute vs Andrade II, you should mention that fight if you want to prove something. The result of that fight is Bute KO'D Andrade with only one left hook to the body. Bute dominate Andrade in the first fight, Bute went to war with Andrade in the last two minutes of the 12 even if he was winning a easy fight... Bute is not a runner, i can't wait to see Bute dominate Ward !

      Ward had to cheat and excessively clinch his way to a boring lacklustre decision against Miranda.

      Bute crushed Miranda in 3.
      Bute was not OK to continue, when he got up he was held up against the ropes glossy eyed. If the referee wouldn't have cheated, it would've shown that Bute was not able to take a step forward or even give his gloves to the ref.

      If somehow he'd been allowed to continue, Andrade would have knocked him out cold because the man was defenseless. Going into the rematch, he even said he felt he's the underdog. I wonder why?

      Ward dominated Miranda, couldn't even win a round. Most had Miranda winning 1 or 2 rounds against Bute.

        Bute was supposed to have a loss after that crap with Andrade in their 1st fight!!

          I would say Ward at the moment, simply because he dominated Kessler, who was considered the best in the division at the time. Kessler also has come back to beat Froch in a close fight.
          His wins over Green and Miranda are decent too.

          Bute is definitely close though, with his impressive performances over Andrade, Miranda, Berrio and Bika.

          I think it would be easier to just call it 'undecided' until Ward vs. Dirrell happens though. If Ward beats Dirrell(unless its a robbery or something), I dont think anyone can deny that he is the best in the division.

            Right now Andre Ward has a slight edge in quality of opposition. And if SOG wins the Super Six that edge is just going to keep getting bigger and bigger.

              Ward, different level of class completely.

                  The guy was done and what the fcuk was the Ref doing? Even the commentators mentioned it. Bute was out and it should have been counted as a KO.
