Froch Warns Ward: Don't Butt Me Like You Did Kessler!
WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch has issued a warning to his WBA counterpart, he doesn't want any head clashes to occur in their Super Six unification on October 29 in Atlantic City. Froch is concerned with head clashes after numerous butts plagued Ward's fight with Mikkel Kessler in 2009. The Danish star suffered several cuts that forced an early end to the fight and Ward won an eleven round technical decision. After the fight, Kessler complained that Ward was using his head as a weapon.

Press Tour Over, Ward Reflects on Froch and October 29
By Thomas Gerbasi - There were probably a thousand and one things Andre Ward would have rather been doing on the day after an extensive three day media tour that took him to England, New York, and finally back home to Oakland, California. But on Thursday morning, the WBA super middleweight champion was back on the phone, back at work, and back to talking about one of the biggest fights of his career and of 2011 – his October 29th showdown with WBC champ Carl Froch. “It was pretty exhausting,” Ward told BoxingScene. “I was already in Chicago for the Friday Night Fights telecast I was a part of (in Indiana). I was away from home for three days prior to the trip and it was just unbelievable to be able to go to the UK and turn around in one day. It’s something I’ll probably never do again…in life. (Laughs) That day right there was 14 total hours of flying, and the next day we were in New York, and we finished last night in Oakland. So it was just a whirlwind, but I embrace that it’s part of the game and it’s part of big fights. That’s what you gotta do, so all in all I embraced it and had a good time.”

Andre Ward: Froch Bumped Me, Tried To Intimidate Me
Andre Ward claims he was “bumped” by Carl Froch when the two met for a planned photo-op at a press stop in Manhattan to promote the Super Six World Boxing Classic final on Oct. 29. The two super middleweights were called to the center of the stage by the moderator, Jimmy Lennon and in what appeared to be a planned sequence, stood nose-to-nose in the center of the stage.
