    Ok I&#8217;ve conceded that Bute would put the beat down on Froch, but Andre Ward hasn&#8217;t lost in 12 years.

    1. Andre Ward
    2. Lucian Bute
    3. Carl Froch
    4. Arthur Abraham

    Yea I also think Ward would be the only one to give him trouble. He's a lot better than Bute in the inside and that could be a major factor.

    Andre has better footwork, better jab and is better than Lucian in the inside

    Bute has superior handspeed, better counterpuncher and has more power

    I'd put AA in front of Froch. Bute-Ward is close to a 50/50 fight for me.

    Write off Froch to your peril !

    His last three opponents have been faster, slicker, better boxers than him...

    They all lost.

    Kessler, Abraham, Ward & Bute fight more than they box. And thats what Froch loves.

    Kessler to me is still better than Bute.. Look at the difference in the amount of punches they took in their fights. Andrade even sent Bute down in the 1st fight. Bute is better on the inside though.

    He doesn't even have a beat-down style.

    Froch is so defensively inept that I promise you Bute would beat him down.

    Bute is pretty ****in lethal with that left uppercut to the body. Its a beautiful punch.

    It makes me wince every time I see it. He's got to have the best left to the body in the sport right now. ****ing brutal.
