    A post of unmitigated sagacity.

    I think a lot of opinions on the Super 6 will change in the future. Whilst it's happening, a lot are still negative about it but when it's over and you hear of guys avoiding someone, then those people who criticize it now will look back and say "The Super 6 was great for boxing".

    What is funny is these biased american rankings!

    Ward fights at home his entire career and gets ranked number 1, if froch had fought his entire career at home and every super 6 fight he would be called a eurobum, its ubelivable how baised these rankings are.

    I'm obviously a Bute fan and haven't missed a single fight of the super 6. I'm still sad he wasn't in it though.

    Can you show us some unbiased, non American rankings?

    Yeah blame Bute because he's a good boxer enough to turn eyes around and wasn't invited.

    Say what you like about froch but he is maximizing his talents and is a very gritty fighter. I always thought the super 6 was a great tourney and this is the correct final. Unless something really weird happens ward should have a bit too much speed for froch and ward v bute would be an interesting fight after that. There is no point in giving kessler a rematch with ward as that fight wasnt close, headbutts or not, the result would be the same

    This is a p4p list and it has Ward ranked number 8. Froch is not even on this list. Even your unbiased sourced have Ward ranked ahead of Froch.

    Anytime the WBA, WBC, WBO, and IBF have four different champions. There should be a super 4.

    Well, let's hope this good promo will serve one day. Froch-Bute would be a great fight.
