yep, knocking out edison miranda and jesse brinkley is a sheer indication bute would have a field day on ward:-(
Ward just had the toughest fight of his life against Bika. Using dirty tactics. He ad butting, elbows. Lets see how long he lasts against Bute.:good
7-4-1 Ward held a shitload in that last round, and landed little of significance. But he still has the decision in the bag. He wasn't the only one pulling dirty ****. And how good did Bute look against a guy like Brinkley(who didn't look anywhere near the way Bika did today)? So let's not use a single tough fight as a defining meter.
Since this is hometown, it should be a landslide score for Ward. The remaining fights of S6 should be in a neutral area.
okay, but is lucian bute gonna fight in the manner that bika fought tonight?? in order to beat ward you have to FIGHT him. if bute thinks he can stay on the back foot all night looking to land his left uppercut, then he's gonna have LOOONG night. gaurenteed
C'mon. Cut Bute some slack. He's like what .. almost 31, and has managed to never get in the ring with both Kessler and Froch. He's working his way there at his own pace .. Surely he'll pick out Jermaine Taylor or Arthur Abraham next. Anyway, it worked for Calz. He fought a past prime Eubank at 25 and then no one for a decade. Meanwhile, Ward is 26 and not yet peak. He should be embarrassed for his match making.
