Good call with Andrade that was a decent win, although Bute did it just as well for 11 rounds at least.
I don't know I just don't think he's quite got the capability to be great in the way a Jones Jr, Hopkins, Calzaghe, maybe even a Dawson can be. (He's level with Tarver imo)
I can see him edging Ward in a somewhat controversial points win, but I really think Andre will give him problems. If the fight was in the UK I'd fancy Ward to beat him but in Denmark it will be harder.
Still when you look at all the great US fighters over the years, (The continent of America dominates boxing) and compare them with fighters from the European continent (exluding Britain and heavyweights) you really don't come up with any p4p stars at all.
Ward also has a proud amatuer pedigree as an Olympic Gold medallist and I'd say history and tradition are very much on the side of the American.
