      The Froch-Abraham loser vs. Bute would be a good fight, and Bute-Pavlik would be interesting. Bute vs. the Super 6 winner for all the marbles will be a fantastic fight when it eventually happens.

        It's kinda funny.....

        Bute, by not participating in the Super-6, nominated himself as the last-man-standing, without even being tested.

        Certainly, the Super-6 winner will have faced the better opposition.

        That should be a great fight.

            I agree with almost all of what you said. I still find it hard to really warm to someone who leads with their head and who doesn't have a knock-out punch. As with B-Hop, I suspect I'll end up respecting him as a great fighter, but never becoming a real fan of his.
            This post summed it up for me. Im not a fan of Ward just as I wasnt a fan of B- Hop during his middleweight reign but I grew to respect him for his acheivements even though he never left home either. His ugly style was secondary to his record breaking acheivements and now I like the guy.

            I expect the same may happen with Ward. His style is ugly and boring but he is leaving home so I cant see him losing anytime soon. After years of dominating he wont be able to ignore him so he will have to get his props eventually. I just think we have afew years of boredom until we get to the respecting stage.

              I am already a fan of and respect Andre Ward. I will be cheering loudly next month when he beats Froch! I hope Froch fans don't bring those things that make noise at soccer games.
