In case Froch wins first fight but loses contractual rematch in Quebeq I dont think Ward-situation would be very different cause: The only fight bute would have had lost would have been with man he finally beat and Ward wouldn`t have the prove would have a disparity in his favor cause he wouldn`t have a fight in Froch turf and considering Kessler would have been in the same position as Bute regarding Froch, the rankinss itselfs would be the same.
