    Yeah but easier said then done...lol Pascal couldn't out box him and he just put on a clinic against Diaconu. Pascal has to have one of the best stamina in the sport. If Jermaine Taylor had good stamina, then he would have not only beaten Froch but Pavlik, and everyone else hes fought. For 8 rounds, he can match the best fighters in the world skill wise( he even out boxed and out worked Hopkins twice). His problem is that he has poor stamina and his mental focus is not always there. i don't think Froch looked that bad against Jermaine. Going into the 12th, Jermaine was only slightly ahead and one unofficial judge even had Froch leading.

      Froch fights are always difficult to predict because essentially, he should lose to most guys based on skill level but can Ward take his punch and survive his late round pressure?

        lets face it,jermain has looked s**t since beating hopkins and pascal was a poor mans lacy coming into the froch fight (although he has proved his worth now) froch isnt world class imo

            How was Pascal a poor mans Lacy? Pascal right now, is more proven then Lacy has ever been and certainly more talented. Also, Taylor was a top 10 super middleweight when Froch beat him and the mandatory, so he earned his shot. So if Froch beat these world class fighters, how is he not world class? Plus hes a champion. I think hes underrated. I think a lot of it has to do with his style. Hes harder to beat then he looks.

              u read me wrong,i said coming into the froch fight he was a poor mans lacy (in terms of resume) but has proven himself since.
              hes not world class for me,if he beats someon like kessler or bute (champions at super-middleweight) he will rise alot in my estimations,just my opinion though

                    Andre Ward would win by wide decision.

                    The fight would be similar to Miranda-Ward.
