@Carl_Froch I'll leave it for now "champ". I know you have a big fight coming up...don't want you to lose focus...that wouldn't be good. Lol
Carl Froch @Carl_Froch 2h
@andreward no problem big shot, I enjoy the banter but your question is "boring" reminds me of a style of fighting that fans can't watch LOLAndre
@Carl_Froch You have to come stronger than that bro! Only people who agree with you are your neighbors in Nottingham!! Get some rest "champ"

@andreward 18 thousand seat stadium sold out in 3 hours and being shown on the best platform on PPV! Meanwhile you're still too boring! Zzzz
Froch only needed one more round against Ward and that fight would be an official draw. Ward nearly folded in the championship rounds too, it was nearly lights out for him.
This is true.
The only one who had it wide for Ward was the 'bias Brit judge.'
Ward wasn't brilliant at the end of that fight.
Didnt Froch acknowledge immediately after the fight that Ward handled him and he didnt deserve a rematch?
Sounds like these dudes are trying to sell a future PPV that no one would buy if they didnt have "beef". Im pretty sure that they are friendly. There is no way that these 2 wouldnt respect each other immensly. They are two of the most intelligent and respectable guys in the business.
not all of his fights have been ugly (exceptions: the Kessler + Sakio Bika fights), it's just that they're so one-sided and he doesn't always go for the knockout. That's nothing to hate on a guy for, that's just smart boxing.
Ward already beat the best at 175. I know Dawson moved down in weight, but no one at LHW has a good enough inside game to stop Ward from doing that.
Ward never fought at 175.
Yeah because he hugged him more times than he hugs his own SONS.
To be honest, Carl did better when Ward got inside, when he was on the outside Froch was way too slow to land on him (until the last couple of rounds when Ward tired).
LOL at that ****. Froch can talk all he wants, but he wants no part of a Ward rematch.
He does, and he said he'd be willing to travel again to make it happen if he has to.
Ward ever offered to go to Europe to fight Kessler after winning the Super Six, Kessler didn't want it.
Kessler tried to make the Ward fight earlier this year, but Ward wouldn't travel. Kessler then gave the go-ahead to make the Froch fight.
If Froch was from US and Ward from England, you US-fans would all agree, that Ward should go abroad to fight..
No doubt, the likes of daggum would be all over it.
Big fan of Ward, but this comes across as sour grapes.
Ward wants a Froch rematch, that's what all this is about imo. Froch still has to get past Kessler however.
Yeah because he hugged him more times than he hugs his own SONS.
Face it....Ward holds and hits, makes more contact with his head than with his jab and leans/pushes on opponents like they are a car in neutral. Those crap fights against Ward and Kessler were pathetic. If that's called boxing and winning than I wouldn't want to fight him again either. Froch and Kessler's style are more warrior than survivor (a la Ward and Dirrell), which is why we want to see Carl and Mikkel. Instead of starting shyt on Twitter Andre, be a ****ing man and go up to 175 and try all those tactics on a bigger dude.

Ward has called him and Kessler out on it multiple times now, they only mention his name half-assedly to make themselves sound like they want to fight. They don't. Neither of them are interested it facing him again. Ward ever offered to go to Europe to fight Kessler after winning the Super Six, Kessler didn't want it.
Carl is one of my favorite fighters and total warrior, but he is a peg below Andre Ward, and he's been a completely sore loser since the fight. Ward gave Froch and Kessler respect, but all Froch has done is ***** and moan.
Fans of Froch and Kessler come with all kinds of **** to try to discredit Ward; he's a mauler, he holds, he's not a draw, he's got a boing style, he has no fans, excuses excuses excuses.
Andre Ward absolutely sonned Froch. Shut him down. No slander on internet forums or talking **** from Twitter is going to change that.

its the biggest fight he can make well the winners of kessler and froch will be the biggest fight he can make atm.
yeah it probably is but it is strange that the guy who won seems to be almost begging to fight a guy he already beat!
Andre Ward holds the world record of clinching in one fight, as far as I know. 88 clinches initiated. At least he used his head to beat Kessler, not engaging in anything remotely.
I counted John Ruiz holding Andrew Golota 168 times.
Froch can talk all he wants, but Ward handled his ass
he'd do so again if they ever rematch
props to Froch if he has the balls to pursue it after Kessler 2
but he's not equipped to beat Ward, that style clash foils him
LOL.
Carl Froch @Carl_Froch 3h
@andreward @skysportsboxing You make me laugh Ward! What's happened to your career!? So boring kid, you could put a glass eye to sleep.
LMAO OHHHHH ****. Andre Ward got verbally KTFO!
Alpha male? Nonsense. It's one thing to win in the ring, another to be dominant outside where there are no rules. I think Froch has proven he's a much tougher, much stronger guy, and much more likeable guy.
Ward is more likeable than Froch.
Froch could come out with Ether and it won't mean jack sh*t because Ward has the W where it matters. I never understood the mentality behind chatting sh*t about a Man who handled you. We know who the alpha male is between the two.

is ward after a rematch or something? he has already beat froch, move on!!!!

Big fan of Ward, but this comes across as sour grapes.
Froch-Kessler II is one of the most anticipated fights of 2013 and will be a huge PPV draw. Ward, despite being the top dog at 168, can't fill a venue outside of Oakland.
