    Bute beating a guy Froch already beat is gonna prove what exactly ? The only think Bute is proven is that he is consistent in taking on Froch's leftovers. Magee and now Johnson,.

    Of course it is. Not because either of them have belts around their waists, but because they are #1 and #2.

    Drinker's logic is different though, because neither of these are the Ring champion. Martinez vs Barker was for the Ring title, it's not a question of being worthy when there's a champion.

    Froch/Ward are fighting for the vacant title. Which should be contested between the two best in the division. The first and 3rd best in exceptional circumstances.

    I believe Bute and Kessler should be ranked higher than Froch.

    Kessler has the win over Froch so you can at least make a case for ranking him higher. Bute on the other hand has no case at all to be ranked over Froch.

    Bute is clearly a better boxer.

    Ricky Gervais got in trouble for using that word.

    Be more polite.

    Then he needs to step up his quality of opposition and prove it. Until then Froch has the better wins and the higher ranking.

    Sakio Bika would beat Froch. Carl would not cope with Bika's inside tactics.

    Is that with 3 minute rounds or 3 min 20 second rounds?

    Jermain Taylor is also clearly a better boxer than Froch, your point is meaningless.

    Bute and Kessler do clearly have a case, Kessler beat Froch and has remained unbeaten... Bute wasn't in the super 6 but clearly has shown enough to be a real threat.
