    ok so we have :

    Arthur Abraham
    Andre Ward
    Lucian Bute
    Carl Froch
    Mikkel Kessler
    Andre Dirrell
    Jermain Taylor
    Allan Green
    Kelly Pavlik

    i know Stieglitz,Andrade,Anthony Dirrell,Miranda,Balzay,Inkin,Bika,Even Paul Williams have a decent shot. but not enoght option on a poll . i did one earlier this year so let have a more up to date list.

    change that to next 3 years

    That's a tough call. Probably Ward or Bute. I voted for Ward.

    I hope it will be either Kessler or Abe though.

    lol at the hype bute is getting must be canadians.
    sorry but bute would even lose to taylor.

    Don't be fooled guys Bute could have entered the super six but andrade rematch was a smoke screen so he could avoid it.
    He could have delayed the rematch etc etc please don't insult my intelligence and say he wanted to put the ghost of andrade to bed in favour of turning down the millions from the super six.
    Bute will never face a top 168 guy he's a canadian cash cow b class at best boxer, he will have a career like sven ottke.

    Mostly Kessler fans who need another hype job to latch on to. Give it time, the more hype he gets the better it will be when he loses.

    I don't think we will see one inparticular king as in the next year the super six will still be on-going.

    One thing I have noticed is a huge increase in support on this forum for Lucian Bute after last night. I have always thought he was a fairly good boxer and worthy of a belt. But some people on here are so fickle. For example we saw the same increase in support for ward after he beat Kessler with similar poles as to who will win the super 6 and Ward came out on top after that win. I can't stand people on here who clearly just jump on the bandwagon after a win.

    Like I said Im not doubting Bute is one of the best 168lbrs but a win over andrade does not convinve me, as of yet, that he will reign supreme in this weight division.

    So in the next year I dont see a king at 168, will take longer to decide than that.

    Right now I would have to say at the moment Ward and Froch by a whisker but I do expect Froch to lose at some point in this tournament. I have put Froch in because he beat pascal (175 WBC champ), Taylor by TKO (Former Undisputed 160 Champ) and albeit a close fight, win over Direll. Ward gets in as I had Kessler as the no.1 until Ward beat him.

    It seems Bute's best win is Andrade in the rematch, for me that doesn't speak volumes. A good win and performance by him but until he faces 1 of the super 6 or Green and beats them it is hard to make him no. 1.

    On this poll I voted it will change in a year as Kessler was no.1 in many peoples opinion, then ward beats him and then Ward becomes fav to win super 6, then Bute stops Andrade and fans on ESB make him no.1, I bet if Abraham KO's Direll he will be considered no.1

    Dirrell will be the next champ once he sorts his act out.Bit green still but you can clearly see the man has supreme skills.
