    Like I said you don't believe what you said(50/50). You said it like 1 month ago. Bute didn't had a fight since then Froch didn't so what changed ?

    Bute would embarass Froch and he knows it.

    I once thought Ward was versatile but since the Green fight his style has changed. He doesn't fight on this outside anymore. He beats his opponent to the punch, goes in and grab.

    Well doesn't Hopkins do that. I think of Hopkins as the most though fight he could have right now.

    Would be shocked if Froch was knocked out, I think Ward is going to be cautious even if he is able to dominate Froch in the ring.

    I think Boo's talking about a Bute-Froch fight :think

    There's no way Ward would stop Froch , he couldn't even hurt Miranda :rofl

    So no reply from Rummy? I'm aching to hear an explanation.
    I'm guessing you just don't like Bute(style-wise) you don't believe in his skills and that's why you underrate him. But that's ok, just hang to your opinion cuz I wanna say : "Told you so" later when you see him against good opposition.

    I favor Ward against Bute - mostly because I have no idea how their style would match and because in speed and reflexes/reactions Andre has the advantage.

    I favor Bute over Froch see my post above

    I favor Bute over Kessler because I think he's faster more accurate better counterpuncher and Mikkel isn't what he once was(eg: against Calzaghe). But who knows maybe the eye injury that bothered him has healed and he will be 100% again. Even then I'll favor Lucian but will be very very close.(Kessler-Froch style of fight)

    I favor Bute over Dirrell but only against the Dirrell I saw with Froch and Abraham, if he doesn't mature himself, because if he does then this might be a extremely hard fight for Bute.

    I think Bute beats Pascal to, he's just the better boxer.

    Let's try, I know it's a touchy subject and very seldom will it give 100% accurate representation, to quantify their last 5 wins. Say out of 20 points per win for a total of a 100.

    Opponent's recent resume (last 3-4 fights or so): /5
    Condition (shot to prime): /5
    Outcome (UD/MD/KO-5/SD-3/lose-0): /5
    Performance (got schooled -- dominated): /5
