    ward doesnt have the power to hurt froch,he wont be able to keep froch off him.

    He can try direll froch,but he isnt even as fast with punching or movement as dirrell is.

    ward got drawn into bikas inside fight and his game,froch can drag ward into this type of fight and beat him.

    johnson admited he planned and boxed early,but got dragged into frochs type of fight.

    ward has not fought as gooder opponents as froch,he doesnt improve by having that,he got an ok win v kessler,but vs green,bika and a inactive recently lost abraham he hasnt had the biggest tests to improve and prove himself enough.

    Froch has fought: pascal,taylor,dirrell,kessler,abraham,johnson,

    hes made mistakes in fights but hes learnt from them,hes got used to all these styles and improved as a fighter.

    Carl the cobra froch will win,it might be dominating,it might be ugly,but he will win someway or another.
    Sakio Bika didn't drag Ward into anything. Ward went inside because he wanted to just like he did in the Green fight.

    Glen Johnson isn't Andre Ward. Especially at this stage.

      People are forgetting that Froch looked pretty bad against Dirrell. As did Dirrell, but still.

      He didn't look great against Kessler or Taylor or nor did he tonight.

      He knows how to win and gets the job done but Ward Isn't those guys.

      Ward will be by far the toughest fight of his career and I think Ca
      rl of all people even adknowledges that.
      and froch will be wards toughest fight by far. Froch let's his hands go inside and has a chin and is just as strong as ward. That means ward's gameplan will not look like it has against the inferior fighters you've seen him with.

        OK Froch can have the Inside Game...how does Froch deal with the Speed from the outside though

        all this crap about Inside and Power and Hurting Froch...Ward really won't need either, I think he can move in and out on Froch all night and land at will on Froch and then turn around and avoid most of Froch's Power Punches...Abraham did a great job stuffing all of Ward's clinch attempts and really didn't allow Ward to get inside and he still lost

        Not sure why people think Ward needs to get inside to win...that is really NOT TRUE

            Froch is a big underdog.

              I hope Ward has good odds to beat Froch, if he can beat Kessler, he's definitely going to beat Froch.

                Froch is the ****ing man but Ward will beat him. He's made from sturdier stuff than Dirrell. He's got so many dimensions - can fight on the inside or outside, can switch hit, moves well laterally, is quick. He's just a stylistic nightmare for Froch.

                Glen did not look like he had the energy or strength to impose himself on the inside tonight but Ward will have to, cos Carl is just so awkward from the outside. It'll be interesting to see if he can maul Froch and out-strength him.

                  What, you mean like Mikkel Kessler the man who beat Froch and Arthur Abraham argubally the best win on Froch's resume?

                  Froch will be argubally his toughest fight. I personally give Froch as much chance as I gave Kessler to beat Ward.

                  Whereas Ward's chances of beating Froch are much more likely than anyone Froch has ever faced.

                  And I garantee the odd's will support both of those arguments when they are released.

                      Kessler was the #1 SMW and favorite to win the tournament.
