I don't think Dre Ward would have KO'd Bute as early

    I'm glad Ward already beat Froch. Because if Ward would have fought Bute first and decisioned him[without Froch-Ward happening], then Froch fights him and stops him like that in 5 rounds, idiots would have said Froch destroys Ward.

        I highly doubt Ward stops Bute and there is absolutely no guarantee he beats Bute just because Froch did & he holds a win over Froch.

        Styles make fights & I personally think Butes style would give Ward a lot of problems.

          Because you shouldn't be able to just side-step the super six and then expect to fight the winner as your first step up in competition?

            Bute has the speed to keep up and I do think it would be competitive wouldn't shock me if Bute wins it but I favor Ward to win a decision.

            Ward is really good without a question the man at 168 but I noticed lately people are overrating him a little I'm sure all that will die down when he losses to Dawson

              Styles. It's like Pac KO'ing foes quicker than Floyd. That just isn't his style. Kudos to Froch for probably the defining win of his career.

                i agree with you,carl froch just seemed to strong for bute almost every punch he landed seem to bother bute ward doesn't seem to have that same type of punching power

                  In Lampley's words Ward vs Bute would be a high speed chess match. I still would pick Ward but I don't see either guy getting seriously hurt. Cut maybe, but not hurt.
