Ward did beat froch, but he never got his fans or his popularity. It seemed like the whole fight he was Hoping for Froch to lose, you could tell by the way he was talking. Do you think he is jealous of his fanbase?
Who cares.
Froch is scared ****less of Ward. You can tell he wanted no part of Ward in the Kellerman Interview.
Ward's is froch's daddy so he can say what he wants.
P.S, No I didn't notice any jealousy at all. All I noticed was Froch's fear of a Ward rematch.
Afraid of what? Getting outboxed? Because that's all that would happen.
:lol1: Yea right.
Anyway I don't think he was jealous at all though we can agree there.
I kinda got that feeling too. Ward spanked him, would spank him again, is the top dog in the division but he could only wish he had a crowd going crazy like that for him. Wards style is not entertaining to most people and his fan base is limited. Broner Already has more fans. Lol
I don't see how Ward's performances against Kessler and Froch were boring, I don't understand where the hate stems from really.It's becoming quite clear that a lot of these people have racial biases.
I'm pretty sure Ward is jealous of the crowds Froch can draw....
You might be right. I guess he figures that he's beaten Froch, he's the better fighter yet he's still not the bigger draw.
But as for the thread question.. I saw the whole fight and I can't think of anything Ward said that made him sound jealous at all.
I think he came across as a little bitter and defensive on the night.
With both HBO and his Sky interview, he was sniping at anyone who mentioned certain things, which surprised me.
he seemed very confrontational. he's a boxer, after all, but it was not professional. he was a broadcaster last night. he should have acted like one.
piss poor job by ward, imo, who is usually one who comes off looking like a good guy. he went right after kellerman in the first round. kellerman is a very nice guy. it was pretty ridiculous to listen to him go after kellerman like that so early.
it's possible that he was taken back by the event a bit. if you fight like carl froch people go crazy to see you fight.
ward isn't boring....he's been in entertaining fights...he jus opts for defense first instead of using his face like fright nd kessler just did...
he fought bikas fight and out muscled him...just like he did to countless others...his fights with froch...kessler...dawson...green were entertaining...he mixes it up nd stays in the pockets...
he's not as entertaining as the brandon rios of the boxing world but he isn't boring

Idk what ts is talking about, ward was very respectful even when froch dissed his style all ward said was well were not here to talk about me , its about froch tonight, or something like that . Tbh if I was ward I'd be thinking man this guys easy work for me idk what all the fuss is all about.
Ward didn't sound jealous of Froch at all. Where is this coming from? Ward called the fight in a balanced and objective manner.
Froch fought from behind his jab, showed a solid chin, and dominated the fight for the most part.
There was nothing for Ward to be jealous of. Ya'll are reaching with this wack thread title.
Anyway, I'd rather see Froch vs. Dawson or Hopkins at a catchweight.
I don't need to see Ward vs. Froch again. For what? Froch didn't even win a round in their fight, and since then Froch is only OLDER w/the same style.
I'll Tom Brady PASS on that fight.
How an adult sees it.
Thanks for the obvious post.

He has to be to a certain degree.
I disagree. In fact after the fight when they were talking to him and Lederman asked him about the 54 connect % of Kessler, Ward cleared it up real quick about how cleanly Froch won. Sounds like people just wanna give a victory to Froch over Ward any way they can.
This. This. This.
froch vs ward reminds me of jay-z and nas.
nas like ward won their battles but somehow froch and jay-z fans claim their guys won because of there money and popularity.
lol true, Froch even got Beyonce, Ward got Kelis.

Froch had a good performance but they can fight in Frochs house and Ward would beat him again. He is way to open and he would be eating left hooks all fight just like the first fight. I did not see any jealousy at all with him calling the fight. I do however, think Ward needs to fight outside of his hometown only because he was able to fight at home when competing in the super six.
Because Andre Ward is Black. No need to sugarcoat. :)
Give me a fucking break..
You are the only one bringing up race .. Know why? Because you have the biggest racist chip your shoulder.. You sad little minded man.
Ward is too well spoken , too modest and at times.. A whiner.. He just doesn't have star appeal .. What does his pigmentation have to do with any of it?
Ward is known as the best in his division. He has nothing to lose and everything to gain by fighting Carl in Nottingham. I hope it happens. Home advantage will give Froch a chance.
lets see if ward will fight Froch in the UK.Its where the money is and they are the two top guys at 168.
I think Ward is a better boxer than Froch but he will not travel unlike Kessler and Froch.It would be a more competitive fight in the UK as well and he knows it.
Ward looked a bit rattled in a interview on sky after the fight and doesnt seem all that keen to test himself.When asked if he would travel he said he fought a long way from home in Atlantic City!! lol
