    Wide UD for Ward.

    118-110 Im guessing.

    Possibility of a late stoppage.

    Ward by decision in a good fight. Bute's main problem are aggressive fighters that will force him to work. Against Ward, he will have more room to relax and attempt to box which should make him look good throughout the fight even in defeat.

    That exactly

    Wards not going to do to him what froch did. Styles make fights, i can see bute being more competitive in this fight (not saying he would win it).

    I think it's a decent scrap. Most likely Ward tries to make it ugly and get inside. That takes away Bute's solid hook downstairs and forces him to use a lot of energy. Plus, Ward is a much better fighter in the pocket.

    Unless Bute has his personal referee, Ward wins this fight going away. 117-111 or so.

    I've thought of this too.

    Don't say that Bute would've beaten Ward but I'm sure that he would've given to him ( Ward ) a good fight.:yep

    I think it's an interesting triangle.

    Ward clearly outpoints and outboxes Froch who blasts out Bute. But Ward and Bute create an interesting fight.

    Ward's not as powerful as Froch, and Bute's a little faster than Froch. That neutralizes Bute's weakness and a little of Ward's advantage.
