    "It was clear that Ward was going to win the S6 final with Froch. He is the king of this division. He is young and

    Carl Froch was bound to lose the match the minute he got in the ring with him.

    Bute can win only with a lucky shot or something like that. If he fights toe to toe with the american, he would probably lose. But, I don't think a bout between the two will ever happen. Professional boxers know their skill, what they can do and can't do inside the ring. They know very well their limits and their chances to win a certain fight. Anyway,

    , where he owns two belts. Even if Lucian would stay close to him in the match, the referees whould declare Ward the winner.

    To beat Ward in his own country and become unified champion, he would have to either KO him, or win at least 7-8 clear rounds. You remember how Doroftei (Leonard Dorin) beat Spadafora in Pittsburg in the early 00's (2003) and was robbed by the referees who had declared the fight even a draw.

    He is not in a good position you know. He has to think ahead and make the right moves. With Froch, I think that Bute could really pull it off. He's the favourite in that fight. Remains to be seen if the bout will happen and if it does happen where it would take place."

    It sounds like he's saying Bute won't get a fair decision if he were to fight Ward. He does state Bute wouldn't be willing to risk a fight with Ward, but Bute's already stated he's willing to come to the states and make the fight.

    Was there a falling out between the two? If so, it's the equivalent of getting character testimony from a dude's ex-wife-- colorful but not likely to be reliable.

    Ward will give Bute a boxing lesson. The judges don't have **** to do with it.

    Hey, **** you buddy. Bute is the best 168lb fighter in the world. He could kill a Klitschko with one of his uppercuts.

    If Bute wins 7 rounds against Ward in the US, then this happens...:

    The judges will give Ward a 8-4 UD and 80% of fans on ESB will claim it was a fair win for Ward in a fight that wasn't even that close. And most of them will probably believe it... because of the surroundings of the fight, the HBO/Showtime commentators' comments etc.

    i say lets see the fight happen and then we'll talk

    Knowing the current trend in boxing, i think this fight has next to slim chances to happen; Ward ain't going to leave Oakland too soon to fight Bute outside, and hell i would be happy to see Bute fight Froch and/or Kessler

    The keywords here are "Bute's first trainer"

    I won't take his opinion for much more than the average guy on the street.

    Bute's first trainer is an Uncle Jean. His opinion means nothing.
