I'd say it's tight between Ward, Kessler and Bute tbh. It's gona be subjective, especially at the moment until they all fight once more - by which point it should be clearer.
I feel sorry for Bute in a way because he's left with guys outside of the Super 6. All he can do is keep winning.

Ward is a great talent there's no denying that and he beat the main man in the division in flying style headbutts or not.

A robbery is a blatant gift to another fighter, not a decision in a close fight going one way when some thought it went the other. It was close, even that doesn't say much for Dirrell imo.
I'm sorry, trying to make a case for Dirrell as the #1 SMW is simply ridiculous to me as of right now. It's close up top but at a push I'd go...
Bute
Ward
Kessler
Dirrell
Abraham
Froch
If Ward wins his next fight I'd put him top. As I say though, all Bute can do is keep winning.

Beaten Bika, by a wider margin than Calzaghe.
Only 2nd man to KO Joppy.
Beaten Andrade twice, 2nd time making him only man to KO him.
Quickest to KO Miranda.
Undefeated.

Ward is that dude right now @ 68.....I was rootin' for Green big time on Saturday but I do have to admit that I was really impressed at how Ward mauled and mugged the bigger man.....reminded me of the GREAT B.Hop....the kid bought a smile to my face even though he was muggin and maulin' the **** outta my dude!! .....Ward is the man!!.....I'm sold on the kid.....he'll win the tourney!!.....and IMO he'll beat Bute as well if they ever fight!!
