    Froch
    ward
    dirrell

    kessler wont get better than his last two big efforts ward and froch imo all slightly downhill for kessler.

    I'd take froch to beat kessler in a rematch.

    agreed. Bute has talent, but the mu****a ain't fought no one. Kessler looks like ****. Dirrell may be top 3, but he's blackballed & irrelevant.

    How did Froch magically disappear? He's on one hell of a run of fights, and only one questionable loss. Froch-Ward is the rightful Super Six final. They are clearly the top two. The best of the rest is what's up for debate.

    1. Ward
    2. Froch deserves to be number one after his competition) would beat kessler in rematch on neutral ground) thought he beat kessler anyway.
    3. Kessler

    Butes CV is a joke at SMW.

    Dirrelll......possibly beats all of them as he is the most naturally gifted...shame he doesnt have the balls.

    ......

    Kessler over Ward? Wow. I thought they already fought and Ward shut him out. I must be wrong though.

    I always do ratings on results rather than hype.

    Ward has one good win over Kessler, but overall Ward has a lesser resume than Bute.
    Kessler and Froch both have better resumes than Ward and Bute, but due to Ward beating Kessler and Kessler beating Froch, you have to put Ward above them, and Bute with a better overall resume than Ward, goes above him, so

    Bute
    Ward
    Kessler
    Froch

    So as you note the top 3 are the fighters you listed, but it would be interesting to see how Ward and Bute do against real live opponents.

    When Ward beat Kessler it was at home with dirty fighting against an unwell double vision suffering fighter.
    With Bute he hasnt faced anyone like Froch or a fit well Kessler (neither has Ward) so it would be interesting

    If you are ranking on resume
    Froch
    Ward
    Kessler


    I think Bute would beat all 3 of them, but he still has to prove it, and he has not done that yet. He needs to fight Kessler or Ward outside of Montreal.

    why are people ranking bute so damn high, he hasn't fought anyone yet. I would love to see kessler fight him next and then I can see where he fits in but to rank him second when he hasn't fought Froch, Kessler, or Ward is a bit premature.
