If Ward can't hurt Froch, can he Dirrell him?

    I've heard Froch come across in a classy way many times in interviews. I think Dirrell and Kessler beat him as well, but i don't mind that he doesn't. He thinks he's the best in the world, so freakin what? He's a fighter, not a track athlete or swimmer in timed competitions.

    ****y fighters never rub me the wrong way as long as they get in the ring with the best and don't have a million excuses or reasons why they won't fight the best comp, but STILL proclaim their greatness (ie Floyd Mayweather JR).....
    Repeatedly, consistently, same difference. Froch still refuses to adknowledge something as usual.

    Thinking someone beat him is fine, thinking they were close fights is fine, talking rubbish for 2 years about how easy his fights have been is annoying as **** and just ******.

      You can't always count on power to win fights for the most part, you seen Kahns last fight. Everyone thought Khan would be over powered but as the fight went on the power puncher died out and the skillful fighter went on to win. So what I'm saying is Ward doesn't need power to take out Froch, his skills alone will do damage for 12 rounds point blank.

        No way did Dirrell beat Froch. You don't come to the champ's hometown and sporadically hit and run and expect a decision. Froch came to fight, Dirrell just wanted to potshot quickly and run away, like he was still in the amateurs. It don't work like that in the pro game, you have to put it on the line if you want to be the champ.

          He was a **** hair from getting overpowered. Not a good example (I'm assuming you're talking about 2 fights ago for Khan cuz that irishman wasn't overpowering a girl scout for some thin mint cookies if he wanted to)

            Ward can and will hurt Froch. Ward is a flat out bully in the ring.

              The best part about this is that we will see, it's not a fairy tale matchup like Khan-Bradley, Pac-Floyd, Bute vs anyone etc...

                Try telling that to george groves!... seriously early rounds dirrel potshotted but latter part of fight he was the agressor NOT FROCH and made froch miss wildly with his snail paced throws... dirrel was battering him from piller to post at the end
