    Frochs jab will trouble him at times but other than that Ward will get in his chest and manhandle him. I dont see an Abraham fight or a Froch fight being anyhting other than easy work for Ward.
    Froch will not be easy work for Ward. Depending on where they fight, he won't be able to get in Froch's chest and stay there. We all know, Froch would result to dirty tactics if he has to.

          Abraham is the only fighter representing a challenge to Ward's skills. Ward likes to go (head first) on the inside most often and doing damage at close range. That tactic bears the risk of an encounter with an abrahammer that will doom Ward's suspect chin.

          So far Abraham's blueprint of defeat is to stay on the outside and work hard with the jab and hook to the body.

          So far we haven't seen Ward being able to do that. Not even against Sakio Bika where Ward also went inside despite knowing that Bute and Calzaghe was more succesful from the outside.
          Ward reminds me a little bit of Bradley, not quite fast enough or slick enough to hit and not be hit (there's only one Floyd Mayweather Jr and we will only see one of those every 20 years or so) so he goes in after his jab and immediately looks to halt the action. I hate that about him because he could do better with slight technical adjustments, doesn't really need to fight that ugly and as you put it, dirty...

                  As long as its not in Oakland its an even fight imo.

                  Ward won't be allowed to get away with his usual murder anywhere else.

                    True, his headbutts n elbows wont count outside oakland.

                      Abraham is no a threat at all for Ward.

                      The finale will be Ward Froch, I said that at the beginning and I'm keeping my predictions. Abraham can't beat Ward, Froch or Kessler
