Froch has great jab and an iron chin but he can bang also. Very heavy handed throws big hook and great uppercuts.
When he connects with Ward, Ward will find himself on the canvas.
I don't see how Ward will be able to take the power of Froch.
Froch is not as crude as AA and has some great skill and will tag Ward more than a few times and Ward will find himself on the canvas.
Maybe the uppercut is the way to go for Froch, when that lands expect Ward to do a dance before taking a trip to the canvas.
Froch can punch and Ward has an average chin imo so yeah sure he can hurt him.
I cant see him getting much punches off in combination tho and even if he does manage to buzz Andre i think Ward has the ability to ride it out, smother, defend, do what it takes to get through it. I can see Ward messing Froch up with his movement and his jab along with bursts of punches in quick raids
Tell u what tho a year or 2 ago id have gaurenteed u Ward would whip his ass, cant do that no mo.....
And IMO a win over Ward would be better than anything Calzaghe pulled off
Erm..... Bernard Hopkins, I would pick Hopkins to school Ward even today if they fought.
Froch's power and chin are overrated.
but his ring savvy and boxing skill are underrated.
I see Ward winning this fight, but make no mistake...Froch will give Ward a difficult time, and it will be an ugly fight.
Froch's big winning point in this fight is catching Ward when Ward leaps in, which is overall his worst flaw. Froch is clever, he can catch up on opponents weaknesses and exploit them. he has enough power to hurt Ward in that scenario.

Froch landed 152 punches compared to Dirrels 103, running around for 12 round and dropping to your knees is not outboxing someone.
Kessler vs Froch was a war.
Froch can box and he can go to war.
LOL you need stats to tell you who won that fight :rofl: forget Stats...I WATCHED THAT FIGHT at least 3 times, Dirrell won't that fight by at least 2 rounds and that is being very GENEROUS! Dirrell also wobbled Froch TWICE in that fight
as for Kessler, that was a good fight no doubt but Kessler speed was clearly the advantage, when Froch fights Flat Footed Fighters the man is a MONSTER but athletic fighters give him problem...even in his defeat of Taylor, HE NEEDED THAT KO TO WIN because he was way down in that fight as well
so AGAIN...WARD CAN EASILY OUT-BOX FROCH...I stand by that 100%
:lol1: I can't stand the man.
You haven't had to endure his entire career, I guess.
You guys only got to see him claim he dominated Dirrell, had an easy fight with Taylor (that he got knocked down in and was soundly being beaten before the last round), whinge and moan and claim robbery over Kessler and act like the Johnson fight was a shut out.
Then again, that alone is enough for me.
I admit, I love it. He never stops talking, but he goes out and fights the best available and usually wins. I admit, he made me a fan.
REALLY?
He was out-boxed by Dirrell and Kessler...Ward is a better ALL AROUND fighter then those two fighter right now IMO
So YES...Ward can Out-Box Froch with NO PROBLEM, if Froch doesn't hurt Ward early and score a KO then he loses by UD...I think even he somewhat knows that.

Don't speak for me either Froch can outbox him as well.

Don't speak for me, cuz I don't know this one. He hasn't been that impressive with his power at all in the super-six.
Yeah you have a point, the more I thought about it, he really hasn't show much Power in this Tournament that is very turn, he didn't hurt Dirrell or Kessler in those matches, he did rock Abraham a few times but Abraham spent the entire fight just standing in front of him
Did I really see Froch behind Jab, Accuracy, Gameplan, and Stamina or am I dreaming?
Froch has infinetly better stamina than Ward, hes one of the fittest fuys out there
Bigger Question...Can Froch Land On Ward With That Power?
Abraham Power is more Devastating Then Froch...but the problem Abraham had against Ward was that he couldn't land clean with that Power and was swinging at Air most of the fight
Of Course we know Froch can KO Ward if he can land...just like we know Ward can Out-Box Froch as long as he avoids that Power

No way. But I think it will be quite one-sided. And that he will outbox Froch on the outside and rough him up bad in close quarters.
If Froch wins more than 4 rounds in this fight, they should give him the win. That's how I feel about this one! :bigeyes:

With Ward feather duster punches, Froch will walk through them and land his bombs.
Here it is guys.
This is the new video where Froch talks about Jermain Taylor being a living legend to American's and was the undisputed Super Middleweight Champion.
But we already knew that.

Froch is 1 dimensional , Ward fought completly different against abraham , kessler and bika. Yet you say you watched these fights and he did everything the same. I have a question for you, how much chronic did you smoke dude?
