^In terms of resume, absolutely. BUT you have to remember, P4P...Kessler was higher than Froch at the beginning of the Super Six and Ward defeated the best P4P out of the bunch at the time. Then don't forget he dominated Alan Green who is still a legitimate contender and then defeated Sakio Bika who would be dangerous for anyone...and is still undefeated. Froch has to defeat Ward to be higher than him.
So till then Ward deserves to be higher because he still defeated the man whom defeated Froch, eventho Froch destroyed Abraham but don't forget Abraham was coming off a DQ loss.

Plus based on styles, Ward would defeat Froch anyhow. Ward is better defensively, can fight on the inside better, can make reach ineffective, better footspeed, handspeed. Ward won't be a stationary target. Only thing Froch got against Ward is power. If Kessler could outjab froch, Imagine what Ward will do to him. IMO the only two guys that would give Ward problems are Glenn Johnson and Andre Direll.

I personally dont have a problem at all with someone rating Froch above Ward, but Ward over Froch is just as legitimate.

All 4 of those guys are better then anyone on Wards resume who isn't named Kessler

You're using triangle theories....Froch has Pascel, Taylor, Dirrell, and AA on his resume

Triangle theory or not, i'm basing it on their styles and what they've shown. Froch has good tools. He's got underrated..sneaky defense. He's got good power, got a good chin...got good stamina and has an awkard style that causes issues with almost all fighters he's foughten against. But he falls victim to guys who got good jabs and great athletic ability. He was losing against Taylor prior to the final round, had trouble against Dirrell's hit and run style and actually lost against Kessler. Ward is very good technically and has a diversity of other skills.
Sorry but one dominating performance by Froch won't catch up to Ward right now, regardless of Froch's past resume.Last edited by TheSlickster; 04-19-2011, 12:09 PM.
