    He would still beat him comprehensively albeit in a different manner and perhaps not as spectacularly.
    It's all about getting the W

    Bute most likely beats Ward, if Ward pulled out a win it would be by shoeshine SD.

    Would the KO be as quick, probably not though Bute's chin did look like shaky at best. Imagine Andre would take a few more rounds with him walking Bute into the ropes and mauling him.

    triangle theory doesn't work in boxing . ward would have problems against Bute.

    I hope that he will beat Froch into rematch and then fight with Ward and you'll see that it won't be an easy fight for Ward as you think !:yep

    50/50 fight .

    probably no, but it would be a sound beating.

    Ward would have won no doubt but Im not sure he would have went at him as agressively as Froch...might have boxed him more then broke him down.

    Bute was smiling and trying to be Carl's buddy during the first 2 rds. He was boxing and pulling his punches.

    Ward kept his quicker jab in Carls face all night, and moved laterally and in and out while throwing punches.

    Bute mustve saw the Ward fight and thought he would box Carl similarly as Ward, except he doesnt have the lateral movement or the footworl to get in an out. MOF, I think he got caught coming in without throwing.:think

    As for a Ward Bute match.....well Ward aint Froch powerwise or chinwise. Ward would have to box smart, like he almost always does, and keep Lucian honest.

    However, Bute still throws the best L UC in the game, and if Ward came in while missing with the jab, Bute could land that and end it at any time.

    My pick would be Bute by T/KO or close decision. Robbery for Bute in Montreal. Robbery for Ward in Oakland.:thumbsup

    He'd win a decision but, due to his style, there's no way he'd do what Froch did. Ward doesn't have the power or the style to blow Bute out.
