    .
    Yes, Balzsay is a very solid technical fighter with good conditioning.

    When he beat Inkin for the title he won the fight by taking the last 3 rounds in impressive fashion and even staggering Inkin towards the end.

    He is also a southpaw.

      I don't want Froch to fight Ward, waste of time, Ward is unproven.

      Froch says he wants/needs the big names/champions.

      Ward would be a waste of time for him, Froch is already 31/32

        They most likely would have to wait until 2010 for shot @ Froch

          I've seen Froch. Ward would kick his ass for 12 rounds.
          Correct.

          Froch would be an easier fight, he's a perfect style match up for Ward. It would be like the first 6 rounds of Taylor-Froch for the whole 12 rounds, since Ward has better stamina than Jermain.

          Balzsay-Ward would be a 50-50 fight. Karoly would give anybody a difficult fight, he's very fast and has an awkward southpaw style.

            Lol

            Froch wants a big name and payday because it doesn't matter if he fought Bute, Kessler, Balszay, Dirrell or Ward. They would all kick his ass quite easily as he knows it.

              Taylor got KTFO.

              Check the threads around the time of that fight.

              Everyone was saying the same thing you just posted.

              So predictable, move on...........son.

                Froch wouldve got KTFO by Miranda, Ward would beat him imo, too quick for the slow Froch

                    Dre Ward would get a decision over Froch I'm pretty sure cuz he don't have the power JT has but definitely is faster. Stamina could be a problem in his career, he kind've tired out wit Miranda but that's probably cuz of the pace he was goin in the early rounds.

                      thats not the point. Froch might not be as good as Balz but he is ranked higher. Ward's future would be set if he fights Froch whereas if he fights Balz and wins, he might still be fighting bums for the next 2 years because the other champs won't give him a title shot. Froch would be the best choice for his next fight.
