      LMAO you really believe that signing a two fight deal that will almost certainly keep him tied up for all of 2012 and fighting the loser of the tournament and not facing the winner for an entire year is fighting the best?

        I just cannot believe how people have flip flopped concerning Froch. I mean yeah I picked Ward to beat him, but there is no shame in losing on points to the best fighter in your weight class, none.

          So while Ward has his hands tied with Anthony Dirrell, Froch and Bute are gonna slug it out. 2012 is shaping up to be a very good year for Boxing.

            Dude are you on drugs?

            Fighting the runner up is better than fighting an unknown.
            Bute already fought Glen Johnson and made an offer to Kessler but KEssler refused. Now Ward refused....

            You tell me who at 168 lbs is he supposed to fight?

            Then you can LYAO.

                      2 fights because it was part of the conditions the British put in. They were probably certain Froch would lose in Canada and wanted a second fight in England.

                      Bute wanted to fight the winner of Super 6, he was ringside at the match and after the fight Ward hinted it is not fair for Bute to fight the winner of the Super 6 at least not right now.
