Comments Thread For: Andre Ward's Plans May Shift Due To Showtime 6/2 Card

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

It's laughable that people think Andre Ward would fight Kessler, Green, Abraham, Froch, but is afraid of Lucian Bute??? That fight will happen, people need to relax.

Because Bute is better than all those guys? Why is he trying to call Bute out now, knowing that he has a fight lined up? And before that he tries calling Martinez out wtf? To me that's the biggest sign of duckage ever (referring to the Bute case.) It's like when 2 dudes size each other up face to face just staring but once someone jumps in to separate them they start jumping at each other acting all crazy like they are/were gonna do some ****... get outta here with that bullcrap.

Btw Im not saying Ward isn't legit or denying his skills. After all he did fight almost every name on the top SMW and beat them, Im just saying stop the bull**** (Ward).

Bute is good, but right now you think he's more proven than Kessler and Froch, at this moment??? He's proven to be better than Green and Abraham, but Kessler and Froch are more proven than Bute RIGHT NOW. Of course, Bute has his shot to prove himself against the next best SMW aside from Andre Ward in Carl Froch. I'm really excited for that fight, and expect Bute to win.

Anyone know what's up with the Bute-Froch rematch clause, and if they are doing that automatic rematch in Canada thing???

You had a problem with Ward calling out Sergio at 164/165??? That'd be a legit fight at that weight. Sergio isn't obligated to fight him there, but it would be a legit fight there.

Bute is good, but I'll still be here laughing when Ward fights him and whups him. It's like people are looking for anyone to beat Ward. All I heard from loads of people was that Ward should fight Froch away from CA and he'll lose......we all know what happened when he did.

If Froch wins, they're going to Canada

If Froch wins, they're going to Canada

But if Bute wins, then there's no rematch right???

No. Why would there be?

No. Why would there be?

Didn't think there would be, just making sure. Looking forward to May 26th.

I don't have a good feeling about it as a Froch supporter. I think the long stretch of tough fights catches up to him and he gets KOed. Hope Im wrong. Although I do wanna see Bute-Ward also.

Ward should move up to 175.

I want to see Bute-Ward as well, hopefully in Fall 2012 or Spring 2013.

Froch has a lot of wear and tear, and he's pushing 35 now. He's not "past it" completely like a Mosley or anything, but I'm not sure he has enough left to beat Bute at this stage. I mean, Froch has fought tough fighters non-stop for the last 4 years, and it could really catch up to him at this point.

Pascal, Taylor, Dirrell, Kessler, Abraha, Johnson, Ward, and now Bute, that's a tough run for anyone.

I'll be watching with nothing invested as far as rooting for someone. I'd be happy to see Froch win, and I'm just happy we'll get to see his wife again, but I'd be happy to see Bute win because it keeps Ward-Bute alive.

Ward should move up to 175.

For his summer fight, I have no problem with that.

For his June/July fight, I hope he either fights Andre Dirrell at 168 or Gabriel Campillo at 175, than fight at 168 for sure in the fall.
