Ward: Bute needs to beat 1 or 2 A-level guys & come out of his hometown to get a shot

Let me break your post a little. "Bute only looks good against medicore fighters. yes he looks to be quick - against medicore fighters, and looks to have a good body attack- against medicore fighters, and looks good in taking a punch, all against medicore fighters. "

yes he looks to be quick - against medicore fighters, and looks to have a good body attack- against medicore fighters -> he looked better then Ward against medicore fighters (Miranda, Bika); He looked better then Froch against medicore fighters (Jhonson).

and looks good in taking a punch, all against medicore fighters-> Bute have been taken blows from the Bangers of the division : Berrio, Miranda, Bika, Jhonson

What the **** are you taling about?!?! Bute does NOT have more hype in him then the rest, Ward and others.

 

Yes smartass, so if Bute fights in Quebec City instead of Montreal, that also count's as not being home-fights ?
How about when he fights in Bucharest, Romania ? Or Galati, Romania ?

 

Why don't you post Ward percentage in his hommolands? 100%

 

the Hercules kid was 22 with 11 KOs, he was NOT KOing everyone in his path at all. Your comparation doesn't stand. Get your facts right

 

A classinc in life.

 

Bute will beat the crap out of Pascal.

 

Thanx for making me lough this morning.

 

How 'bout guys from Toronto?

Bute's been around a bit longer than Ward. He's had a belt roughly twice as long and made more than twice as many defences. He is clearly the best SMW that Ward has not yet faced. ANy talk of needing to 'earn' a shot at Ward is laughable.

Only in the last month, did Ward earn a shot at Bute (without the Froch victory, this conversation wouldn't even be happening).

And Bute gave their one common opponent (Bika) much more of a beating than Ward did.

It's one thing to delay this in the hopes of building hype.

It's quite laughable to talk about Bute "needing to earn'" a shot.

 

All of Wards fights have been in the US.

Bute has fought in various Canadian cities, in a couple of Romanian cities, and the three you didn't mention, Atlantic city, Boynton Beach and Boston.

I think those last three represent more international travel than all of Ward's combined.

OUCH, OUCH.

 

This is stupid. Neither has fought in his opponents backyard. EVER.



Bat.

 

Im not convinced. Calzaghe had around half of his fights in foreign countries to where he lived and was the away fighter at least 6 times I can think of and on neutral places at least 2 times I can think of, oh yeah and he beat Bika clearer than Ward who was getting smashed around in round 12

 

Well that is true.
Kessler especially and Froch also have been very good when it has come to travelling.
It would be interesting to see how either perform when the away fighter.
American SMWs seem to often crumble when fighting in Europe. I guess Wards team had looked at the stats and realised they would be better suited to stay at home and get every other fighter to travel

 

24.07.2004 - Bute tko Tyler Hughes in Boardwalk Hall,Atlantic City,New Jersey 16.10.2004 - Bute tko Rico Cason in Club Ovation,Boynton Beach,Florida 01.11.2004 - Bute tko Norman Johnson in The Roxy,Boston,Massachusetts He laso has 3 fights against Canadians in Canada,that's his opponent backyard too.Bute had traveled 5 times out of 30 fights to different countryes if you count him as Canadian or 28 out of 30 if you count him as Roumanian.How many times had Kessler traveled?5 times in 46 figths? a lot less.... Keith

 

I bet that none of those fights was promoted by the opponents promoter and that neiter had a patriotic crowd yelling for the opponent.

Comprend?
