Froch Tells Ward: Don't butt me like you butted Mikkel Kessler.

Froch keeping it real on ESPN:

On Monday I was at Matchroom Sport's head office, where Andre Ward and Carl Froch went face-to-face for the last time before they enter the ring in Atlantic City on October 29 for the final of the Super Six Classic. Well, there is a conference in New York and Ward's hometown of Oakland, but you get my point.

It was a bit edgy to say the least. Froch said to Ward, in no uncertain terms: "I don't want you to butt me like you butted Mikkel Kessler." Ward looked a little taken aback, but Froch carried on: "I'm not joking. I don't want you to butt me, I don't want the fight to be ruined by cuts."

I spoke to Froch afterwards and he stood by his comments, telling me he didn't want a repeat of what happened to Kessler, who ended up with cuts above both eyes on his way to defeat.

Also Froch said: "If he butts me, I will butt him back, don't worry. And then it will turn into madness." Nobody wants that.

I normally like Froch but he needs a good beating because he's a bit dim upstairs.I know Ward will deliver,Froch looking for excuses already

I really hope that it will be a fair fight. If Ward wins this fight unfair, in any way, it will damage the worlds greatest sport in a very degrading way.

But I like that Froch tells him that he will do whatever it takes to win.

Andre Ward is feather-fisted, that's why he uses his head as a weapon.

He stopped Kessler with an intentional head butt.

Ward should have lost that fight by DQ, but Dan Goossen's crooked referee Jack Reiss just smirked when he saw that last butt.
