      Sadly this fight wont happen for a LONG time

      Ward will demand Oakland or a neautral location like south Africa where it will get like 5000'fans and bute has no reason to leave montreal and take a pay cut when he is easily drawing 20K fighting nobodies

        Wrong. Ward has said Bute needs to earn the right to fight him.

          If ward has balls he'll fight bute then move up to light heavyweight 'WHICH IS ONLY 7 MORE POUNDS . '


          HONESTLY THOUGH I SEE DAWSON , CLOUD AND EVEN Ismayl Sillakh beating him EASILY .

          Ward has top notch solid boxing skills BUT NO POWER

            This was clearly an american vs euro tourney, no room for a Canadian, apparently.
            Just because he wasn't invited, that doesn't give him the right to fight soft competition for the past 2 years. "All" of the elite fighters weren't taken up in the SS.

            He had his chance to fight other fighters (i.e Cloud, Pavlik) at catchweights or something. But instead he chose to fight Glen Johnson who was coming off a loss. He's not fooling anybody with that.

              Whether or not Bute was invited or not is irrelevent. He said himself that had he been invited he would have turned it down. He wasn't interested in tough fights and/or traveling overseas.

              Bute has already thrown up roadblocks to a Ward fight. He insists on NYC because it's actually a short drive from Montreal and would be an easy trip for his fans and difficuly trip to make for Wards.

              His promotor is also insisting that they get to co-promote the fight which I am sure Goossen will not be interested in.

                Cloud fights at light heavy. Kessler turned him down, Pavlik turned him down and fought a prospect instead. smh

                    Tourney was a bit overrated. Dirrell ended up pussing out, Green and Johnson (wtf) were fighting for a spot in the semis basically by default, Bute wasn't invited, Taylor and Abraham had no business being in the tournament, either.

                      Bute and Cloud were negotiating on fighting at a catchweight. Look it up. There was an article from boxingscene when the negotiations were taking place.

                      Bute didn't want to pay Pavlik the money he wanted. Bute basically priced himself out.

                      But regardless of Pavlik and Cloud. You mean to tell me that McGee, Brinkley, and Mendy are the best available fights?
