That would certainly give someone ammo for a styles make fights thread, how ****ed up will it get if the favorites in each fight get turned over. I will personally give up watching boxing if Ward does all the hard work only to get caught by a lucky shot from Froch in the final. Can you imagine how unbearable Froch would be if he fluked his way to a final win!!!!!
all aboard the ward bandwagon.

Let me in =D...
I was really surprised with Ward. I have only seen him on the fight against Miranda, and even though he clearly won, i wasn't impressed.
But against Kessler, Wow...what a boxing lesson. The guy is really good....Before this i thought AA would win this tournament, but now, i really want to him fight Ward. What a fight, 50-50 form me

Avioding punches from a slow guy like Froch is one thingDirrell's mistake was very basic, he fought like he had the belt and Froch was challenging him, and if that was the case, he would have done enough to win. Dirrell tried to fight like Hopkins vs Eastman, but that only works when you are the incumbent champ - you can agree or disagree but judges really like to see a metaphorical ripping away of the title (and I thought artistic impression was only scored in ice staking!!)
Ward vs Dirrell will be very interesting - Dirrell avoided a lot of Froch's stuff by a whisker - will he be able to do that against a more skillfull boxer like Ward? Interesting.
Avoiding punches from a fast fighter like Ward, I think Ward will beat Direll badly personallyComment

Ward Direll will be good because to avoid a slow persons punches with not so good footwork is one thing but to avoid someone like Ward quick foot work and fast hands, I feel Ward will be the victor in this fight. I could be wrong still because Direll is quick himself, I just think Ward looks better on my opinon and is more rounded.Dirrell's mistake was very basic, he fought like he had the belt and Froch was challenging him, and if that was the case, he would have done enough to win.

carl froch is probably the least gifted out of the six but i would find it hard to see who wants it more than carl.That would certainly give someone ammo for a styles make fights thread, how ****ed up will it get if the favorites in each fight get turned over.
