IBF SMW champ Lucian Bute made his 12th title defense via a Draw (145-142, 142-142, 140-144) over Andre Ward. Ward was up 279 to 246 in PL & a point deducted from Ward in the 5th round turned out to be the difference. Ward would have won the title by SD if not for that point deduction.
Bute is now 18-0-2 & Ward's 15-2-1. Ward being DQ'd in 1 loss & a 15UD loss to WBC champ - Karoly Balzsay the other.
