Why is everyone saying Froch will be beaten with ease?

i rooting for froch, but cant see anything other than a ward UD

I dont get it. Let's review each category: Relative Foot Speed: Ward > Froch Jab: Froch > Ward Froch makes his living on the outside. His relative accuracy of his jabs weighs heavily in this fight. Defensive Skillz: Ward > Froch Ward is not as stationary as Kessler. This would reduce jab accuracy of Froch which will ultimately determine outcome of fight. Style Versatility: Ward > Froch Ward can fight southpaw. Inside and outside. Mofo fights dirty if needed. Ring Generalship: I am giving generously to one fighter and call it even ok? Ability to fight Inside: Ward > Froch Froch is primarily working off the jab. Power: Froch > Ward Froch has higher KO but at elite level his power is vastly overrated. Chin: Froch > Ward This makes me think that this would lead to a UD as Ward is not known for his power. Girlfriends/Wife: Froch > Ward All this lead me to think Ward wins by Froch (UD). Beware to hedge as a bettor that the fight goes the distance as Ward uses his dome a la Bradley and cuts Froch.

I honestly hope Froch hits ward so hard he uncrosses his lazy ass eye in a Martinez/Williams II style knockout. In reality though it'll probably an ugly ass fight with rounds tought to score

Ward wins easily, Froch is gonna look very slow compared to Ward....Speed is gonna be the difference maker...Ward UD.. it ain't even close..

Yeah. 10th or 11th round tko. That would put Ward right up there with the elite fighters, for me. It would make Froch's comments about it being impossible to knock him out quite funny too! Looking forward to it. Good contrast of styles. I had Dirrell beating Froch but I'm glad it's not Ward vs Dirrell for the final.

Ward is gonna show everyone exactly how overrated Froch is/was... I'll be back for your scalps... :wave:

He outboxed Froch pretty bad and no I dont really consider taylor a crazy slick fighter but it was enough elusiveness to have the fight in the bag going into the 12th. Add a a crumb of elusive fighting into your repetoir and it gives froch fits. Rewatch that fight. Taylor slips a lot of good shots and catches Froch on the counter. i know what happened in the fight. lets just stop calling every black fighter slick.....

jermain taylor is a slick boxer now? man I love nsb.

Froch was easy work for Dirrell Kessler beat him to Ward is better than both has more skills Ward is going to put on a boxing clinic and outbox him and win by UD VEEEEERY convincing argument.

Because he got schooled by Jermain Taylor and caught him when he gassed not to mention the Dirrell fight. He tends to not look so hot against slick boxers. jermain taylor is a slick boxer now? man I love nsb.

Yeah. 10th or 11th round tko. how much you willing to put down on that?

I dont get it. The guy is tough as you like, has an awesome chin, keeps himself in hsape so have great stamina, when he decides to box he looks really good with a sick jab and good boxing fundermentals add to this he has a huge heart and hits really ahrd and you have one tough SOB. Ward is very overated. He ahs a decent resume but i feel Froch's is so much better. So ward beate Kessler...... He headbutted him to death and should have been DQ if he wasnt in his own town. I so hope Froch beats Wards and shuts all these haters up. Because he got schooled by Jermain Taylor and caught him when he gassed not to mention the Dirrell fight. He tends to not look so hot against slick boxers.

ward will has to fight a dam near perfect fight with froch ,ward will have the crowd with him to infuence the judges.i got froch winning by 2-3 rds maybe a knock down.

I do think Ward will win but it wont be easy at all. Froch has impressed me in this tourney and to me this fight is a toss up as to who will win.

I just fancy the cobra to pull off an amazing display and beat him. WAR FROCH!!!!! Froch is going to put it on this guy I think the Cobra will TKO him in 11 Would u gentleman like to bet on the winner???

Froch will box and look to catch Ward coming in. Easier said than done and it's why this fight is going to be just special. Two hungry, determined fighters. I'm psyched. I agree but i would note that alot of Ward's style is geared around spoiling and preventing the other guy from fighting. I would consider Ward a fighter in the same way i would Froch.

ward hasn't stopped anybody good in his entire career. miranda has gotten knocked out by every elite fighter he has ever fought.... except ward people are delusional if they think ward will stop froch froch has a great chin, ward doesn't have any power. I dont think ward would KO froch but I feel with Froch's tendency to get exited and willlingness to storm in I feel he could be dropped ala the jermain taylor fight, he will get caught coming in by ward. Froch should play careful and use his long arms and strength to keep ward at bay and force ward to make the first moves.

WAR FROCH!! I've put money on you buddy!:boxing:

Easy fight I said when the tournament started and I'll say it again ward win this easy. Froch is like a zombie and come Saturday Froch is in for a beaten.. Easy win for ward.
