manfredo whoop mundine ....pleaze, manfredo sux he dosent even deserve a shot at calzaghe. is he even ranked in the top 10? mundine would whoop his b!tch a$$! .... do u think manfredo could go 12 with kessler

That dont mean shit Fenster history is full of such instances comparing fighters performences is no indicator of form .

Bute has stopped Salem and Toney handily beaten Mock , Tatesovoyen , Wiggins and Thysse

He also stopped Thobela something Mikkel Kessler didnt do , should he be ranked above Kessler ?

Bute deserves to be above Froch right now and a fight between them would be good but id side with Bute .

Of course comparing form is a good guide. Not conclusive, but still as good a guide as any.

They're unbeaten prospects, fought similar levels of opposition (Brian Magee is as good/better than all those names(I concede the Salem stoppage is impressive in light of him giving sicknote a few problems) ), yet Froch beat their one common opponent in a far more impressive fashion...so anywhere you rate Bute Froch is right there just in front of him, in my book.

All rankings are pretty much bollocks anyway. Untill the fighters FIGHT you'll never know who the better man is. The beuaty of boxing.
