    Froch will think he got robbed of course.


    that Froch uppercut will be a valuable tool when when Ward leans forward

      Neutral zone would make it fair. Because this fight is going to decision. And excuses will be made.


      I would love to see Froch win but in all objectivity, Ward will win. Just too good, he is able to adapt to any style.

      He brawled Green, boxed Kessler, swarmed Abraham. Dude is ridiculous.

        Yes it will. This is a very good fight.

        Froch has the power to end it at any moment.

        I think this fight might look a bit like the Taylor fight, Minus the knockdowns.

          It isn't fair that the pampered Andre Ward not only has all his fights in the US, but in his home state of California, with crooked referees like Jack Reiss who permit him to foul as much as he wants.
          Tunney, I agree it hasn't been fair that Ward has had all fights in his home town and that the referees have been poor and let him headbutt etc. BUT, you cannot deny that in terms of the judging, he hasn't allowed any round to get away from him, he is very very very skilled. His boxing ability is extremely high, he's not a big puncher and Froch is granite chinned so Ward will be prepared to hit him all night long. The only thing questionable is whether Froch will be able to land clean shots...if he can, then he has a chance of stopping him. Froch ain't winning no decision against a quick slick skilled fighter like Ward.....Ward has no chance of stopped a granite chinned tough warrior like Froch. All to play for. Vegas is the right venue. One British judge, one American, one neutral, a top referee...and we're good to go...right?

            Ward by decision. Won't be easy I don't think, but I feel he's simply a higher level of fighter than Froch. I can't get past their individual performances against Kessler and Froch's trouble with Dirrell.

                Ward at the moment, but let's see as time progresses. Everything can happen.

                  Ward will win and the haters of USA boxing (such as Tunney) will be forced to whine and cry and gnash their teeth.

                    Vegas is in the same time zone as Oakland, so Froch will feel as if he's fighting at 5 AM when it's really 9 PM in Vegas. And the American crowd will be on Ward's side, and will influence the officials.

                    Ward has had ALL his Super Six fights so far in the US and in California, while Froch has had to fight in Finland, Denmark and the US.

                    It's Froch's turn to fight in his home country. The fight should be in the UK.

                      except froch will be there 2 weeks before the fight so that will have no effect on him at all. you act like he's gonna get off the plane an hour before the fight. ****** terrible comment as usual. keep it up.
