Whatd u guys think? I was very impressed by his performance tonight. I love the way he pivots around his fighters and fights at different angles. He really is the complete package and can fight southpaw effectively too. Nice variety of punches with a beautiful, tight uppercut. I think Ward takes this UD.
I just can't see Froch being interested as long as he is free to pick his opponent, which for his next fight he can. Froch v. Ward wouldn't pull in the US, and nobody in the UK outside boxing circles has even heard of Ward, while Carl will want to take the opportunity (which may well be the only one he gets) to make really big money next time out.
Froch would have wanted Kessler IMHO as he is, B-Hop aside, easily the biggest profile potential opponent in the UK - although he'd take the fight in Copenhagen if it paid more. As usual, though, silence from the Kessler camp despite it seeming to be a pretty good match-up for him, too. At least Bute seems to want to fight... although where is an interesting question, talk about being reluctant to travel!
I'm going to have to say that Froch wins this fight, just because i believe he is the better power puncher, meaning Ward will always try and stay out of Frochs way, but i believe Froch will catch him up and put Ward on his arse for the count!
Wait until Froch fights someone who doesn't have stamina issues like Taylor. Because if you think that's how he fights in all of his fights, you're wrong.
But like i was saying to you last night bruv..
My prediction is only based on that 1 fight i had seen of froch
Ward by wide UD, he has the angles and skill to outbox Froch all night long. Ward will also capitalize on Froch's almost none existent defense and even though Im a Taylor fan I think Ward is a better fighter at this point
I'm with on you this man. Iv noticed that people are trashing on him after the fight.. what the **** are they talking about, this guy has talent man.complaining about holding, noone did much the same when mosley beat margarito by holding. pantera is a one dimensional guy but he is still very dangerous. I think ward still needs to step up the competition however, i think he should take one more fight before fighting someone like a froch ( which in my idea is the worst of the title holders) However with that talent ward has I think him a dirrell are gonna take kesslers throne some day.
