    No, son, he would not. I'm not sold on Bute either; I think he's missing that killer edge and I doubt he's tough enough against the best, but our boy would get beat up bad by that Canadian right now. Ward is not blood and guts and technically he is not superior to Bute either. It would be nuts to throw him in with any of the big boys right now. He still got to work his way up against top 50, 40, 30 and 20 fighters first, before gunning for the contenders and the beltholders. Still a good way to go.

    I haven't seen the fight yet, so I don't know. It's good that he won, although it does sound as though he was a little ragged around the edges. Certainly, he does not need to be rushed. On the other hand, he's positioning himself for another step up over the course of this year. Looking forward to watching last night's fight.

    LOL @ Trashing Bute.

    No sir...no.

    Ward will be a very good one but right now he'd be lucky to last a full 12 with Bute.
