Ward avoided Bute This content is protected super 5 final , refusing his resume ( This content is protected fight Ward said that the winner This content is protected fight with Bute , and mentioned Bute as respectable opponent ) . After the fight Bute ask directily and public Ward for a fight in Ward hometown like the actual offer with Froch . If Bute was a noname then a third belt and easy money to win don't must bother the ducking Ward . But only if .
Do you honestly think aside form you little boxing politics arguement that Andre Ward is a coward? Do you honestly think an olympic gold medalist and two belt world champion is a coward? Have you ever been in the ring? I get fed up with armchair fighters calling world champions cowards, infact calling any fighter a coward. It just doesn't make sense to me.
IF IS NOT A COwARD IT ACT LIKE ONE ! BUTE IBF CHAMPION WAS FORCED TO FIGHT AT NOTHINGAM WITH THE CHALLANGER ( NOT IN A NEUTRAL PLACE ) ONLY TO MAKE WARD TO ACCEPT THE FIGHT IN HIS BACKYARD.
I think both of you need to tone it down a bit. The former must accept that Goosen blatantly declined an offer for Ward to fight Bute, the latter must stop yelling and stop using the word 'coward'.
Fair enough Drozzy. :nod It's only the coward bit I'm vexing about. I just don't see how promotors doing thier job makes the fighter they handle a coward, that's all. But point taken.
I think Bute will succeed to counter Froch with solid shots to the body but I hardly think that Froch will go down and be counted. Also I guess Froch & his trainer will study a lot Bute's style ( especially his mistakes/strong&weak points ) and have a game plan for this fight.
Bute by UD. I suspect the first 3-4 rounds of the fight could be quite competitive, but eventually Bute's superior talent takes over and makes the last 8 rounds or so a 6-2 type deal for Bute. Now can somebody please tell me when the fight is?? May 26th??
