    Froch will find it tough to rabbit punch if Ward's head is right on his chest, under his chin,with his propped up. Also, early on in the fight, when he was fighting from distance, Ward was slipping under the punches Green threw.

    My belief is that Ward is capable of fighting any at distance with Froch and win. You may not agree with it, but hey, it's your opinion.

    I wouldn't say Taylor tried to square up and out**** him. Taylor basically stood in front of him the entire fight and tried to jab and counter. Taylor showed him no angles, something Ward is capable of doing. The only problem is, Ward has more dimensions to his game and is a better fighter now than that version of Taylor, IMO.

    It's not really the same. I am not saying Froch is gonna completely bully him and push him around the ring. Like you guys are saying Ward would completely dominate(by way of boxing) or even do what Carl is best at and out ugly him. Out dirty fight a dirty, ugly fighter? C'mon, now.

    I recognize Ward's abilities but it looks like you guys aren't recognizing the toughness within Froch. Dominated the hell out of Green, beat Kessler down, yet couldn't finish either but Ward will finish a guy who gets hit flush by bombs and stays standing?

    If that isn't overlooking a fighter than I don't know what is. And I was the guy who overlooked Montiel the most, so I should know what that is to the teeth.

      I honestly don't see a way Froch could beat Ward... The only thing Froch would probably be the strongest guy Ward has ever faced. So I am not sure if Ward could bully him.

      But, Ward inside fighting game is more superior, in the outside Ward is more superior, ever skilled attribute Ward is more superior.

      The only thing Froch might have over Ward is power, strength(maybe), and chin(mabye). But, that is it Even Froch styles benefits Ward more than Ward style does Froch.

      Dirrell for all his talent is too nervous of a fighter, to quck to panic to beat somebody as controlled, confident, focused, and multi-dimensional as Ward. So I don't see Dirrell beating him...

      The only guy in the tourney I see having a chance against Ward would be AA. And, the only way WW would win will be from a come from behind KO.... Since he does have that true KO power. But, that is it....

        Froch and Ward are in the same bout in that they will do whatever they need to do to get the W. I see them both in the finals for that very reason. It will be a much closer fight than people realize but Ward will want it just a little more.

          I recognize Froch's toughness and abilities, I just think Ward is a bit too much and clever for him. I expect Froch to be competitive, but Ward would win a clear decision, that's all.

          To be fair, I never said he'd stop him.

          You overlooked every possible opponent for "The King of Bantams".

          I'm just busting them on the last part.
