Looking at the HOF, Bradley really slipped in there. His best clear wins against Kendall **** and Peterson. Got in off strength of split decisions over Manny and JMM.

Froch not that strong either. Closest thing to beating a HOFer was Glen Johnson who may be more deserving.

The JMM win was clear enough for me and beating Alexander was nice too even though it ended in a TD

Froch had a solid resume too, I wouldn’t really highlight the Glen Johnson win at the time they fought…
His wins over Dirrell, Kessler and Groves (both in the rematches) are the ones that stand out imo. But he also beat Abraham and (a then young up and comer) Pascal.

I will always have love for Froch for exposing the fraud Bute

Dudes was killing themselves fighting top notch at SMW and this dude was in Montreal fighting Joppy, Brinkley , Magee and Miranda

Ward should have been the one but he jumped to HBO after the super 6

Remember I said Steve Willis was the ref in that crazy fight? It was Marlon B Wright, I was mistaken. The fight was Bute vs Librado Andrade. Wright cheated and gave Bute a long ass count and bell rung and Bute won decision whe he was clearly out on his feet.

Boxing can't get out of its way....this is not a good idea at all

That was one I forgot to mention

Never liked Froch though, entertaining fighter but an absolute douchebag. He also had/has a weird obsession with Ward after he lost to a one armed Ward in the super 6 final

Solid but questionable and I respect both because I think they both were overachievers but two slit decisions over two HOFers and TD over Alexander and Froch no HOF wins though he had some nice wins is pretty loose. Following them Tank may get in off just a win off of an old Loma and say cherry on top (no pun) Kambosos.

Yup blatant scandalous ref cheating

In real time, Ward seemed very reluctant to fight Bute. It didn’t make much sense considering I thought he would best Bute anyway, but I can’t act like I didn’t notice that his team didn’t seem to like the fight.

That fight wasn't even on Showtime or HBO either it was on Epix Froch vs Bute

I remember because it was on a Saturday and Lennox Lewis was calling it.

I think it was in England because they were calling Bute out for never traveling

Yeah he took an ass whooping against Andre Ward and it was funny how he still talked afterwards

Like dude literally lost every round

It's because Ward despised the fact that everybody was fighting A fighters and he was camped out in Montreal waiting for the winner of the Super Six.
