Dont agree about Bute, he has done nothing or beat no one that suggests to me he is better than Froch and as for Ward after that masterclass Bute will be lucky to win a round let alone the fight. When Bute fights someone other than no hopers, has beens or never will be's then maybe i will take him more serious.
Dirrell might be the only person with the style and skills to trouble Ward, but i cant see anyone beating him for a very long time, if he could punch harder we would likely be looking at an all time great in the making.
ward did not throw the right hand much, imagine if he did, because of the cut over the right eye...if he throws the right hand he is more vulnerable for a left hook counter from froch...i knew this was gonna be the case. ward is smart and realized that he could beat froch convincingly with the left hook and jab with right hands mixed in inside up on frochs chest where the right eye is safer.....
I thought judges weren't allowed to scored rounds even in the US?
Agreed. Froch gave it everything he had right to the final bell. Respect to him for that.
Yes, both very classy, especially Froch in defeat.
I hope it's only one fight. And I agree Bute needs to try to get Froch to fight him next if Ward won't. And if Froch won't, he should try to get Kessler to fight him.
Of course they can score even. It's just not encouraged. As to Froch-Kessler II, that will have to wait for Kessler's tune-up...err, title fight with Steiglitz. If Andre Dirrell looks good coming back, he and Bute could be interesting too. Froch made a good point; still plenty of good fights for him. The division, if it doesn't leave for 75, should stay hot.
can sum1 tell how andre ward is gna be as big as floyd mayweather coz i dont see it nevermind #1 P4P
He won't be as big as Mayweather and I have a hard time seeing him be P4P #1 anytime soon. I think Ward is definitely top 10 but not top 5. For him to get up to top 5 p4p he would have to beat Bute move up to 175 and knock some heads around at that weight.
