    Bute has bad stamina imo the first Andrade fight told a thousand tales.
    When he's taken in to deep water I think he will gas against at least 4 of the super six.
    Only two I could ever see him beating are Kessler and Froch.

    Hey Buddy, relax on the "let the Canadians think he's the best" nonsense.

    Is better than Miranda and Green. Is still top ten, behind Direll and Green now, I correct my mistake.Lost only to Kessler and Bute. Beat Mack and current WBO champion Stieglitz.Is this enough for you? I didn`t say is a good boxer.
    The fight with Lucas will show once more his value.

    At this very moment it has to be Froch for resume, but by end of the year then that could change ( I dont think it will tho).

    That's pretty damn funny. I give him credit for fighting the best opponent available outside of the Super Six though.

    bute has beaten Bika,Berrio, Andrade(1st fiht Contraversy 2nd fight Ko of a guy never Kayo'd)Zuniga solid fighter,. who has Ward beaten? Kessler which is why he has a good claim but thats about it Miranda did **** at 168 and is a weaker version of berrio with in all depratment except trash talk. Bika and andrade could beat any of the top 10 fightr not named Bute.that 3 top 10 fighter at 168. ward has 1 top 10 fighter on his resume who was # 1 at the time so right now the ring has it right. Froch also has a Claim to the top spot and should he beat or even Ko kessler he just might get it.

    well who has ward beat besides Kessler? who after the Joe fight (and I am a big fan of Kessler) really had did nothing after that Poit but beat some fring Fighters? Froch has a good claim to the top spot.

    WTF Miranda is a worst fighter at 168 then Berrio,andrade,Bika . he's about equal to zunig if not a slighly worse. and Andrade has some excellent wins. so he harly a punching bag. aloth of the poster on here haven't been following the 168lb division.

    Bute is the best fighter at 168. Speed and lots of skills.

    No Not Argueable at all. Berrio former World Title Holder has a Knout win against Stiegltiz who is curent Wbo champion, Adrade has way more succes at 168 the Miranda has a win against Stieglitz aswell. And Bika has also done more in a losing effort and winning efforts. what has Miranda done at 168? beaten Who exactly?
