    These guys are in the final for a reason, they are the best. Give both respect in equal measure win or lose.
    Says the guy who is disappointed it's not an all white final like Froch/Kessler fans wished it would be.

      Lol........hilarious.



      I'm pretty sure Ward was fine with everything. He's got plenty of dough to make.

        I have absolutely no idea what you are rattling on about. I am well pleased with the fact that the two best SMW's in the world are in the final to decide who is the best. I didnt figure Ward would be here at the start, but he has done very well and improved as a fighter as the tourney has gone on.

        I think we will beat Froch probably by UD, but its not going to be easy and he will have to work damn hard for it.

            Lol...I think I need to show him the posts where Forza says if he beats Ward he is pfp number 1, and saying he gets no credit because he is white........

              The MMA guys must love Ward, he is a big recruiting tool for them.
              hes undefeated so im sure hes gonna keep doing what he does to win... he just has a style that u as a person dont particularly like...

                Forza's becoming the Hugh Grant/Twako of racially sensitive white fans

                  I don't object to the style that much, kinda indifferent to it, but the holding elbowing, headbutting and hitting on the break, and fighting at home with the hometown ref so he doesn't get penalised is something I do object to.

                  He has been involved in a lot of borefests.

                    Tarver and the rest of the Showtime throughly enjoyed Froch's performance, they are not casual fans.
                    Everyone in the ballroom enjoyed them selfs and the fight..It was a great night/fight,everyone was talking about the 8th rd and how crazy it was..I don't believe Ward can have a fight like this,but if anybody is going to try to make Ward havea great fight it will be Froch..I hope their fight is fair and exciting..

                      Gift wrapped? Hardly and as regards the so called cheap shot, do you seriously believe that either Froch or Ward would have acted like Dirrell if they had taken that cuff?

                      Both Ward and Froch are well worthy of their place in the final and it should be a great fight. People make too much of Ward's headbutts, elbows, holding etc. just as they diss Froch for having no skill, no defence etc.

                      Both these guys are far better than that and anyone who really knows the sport from inside or outside knows this and gives them both due, but also earned respect.
                      Come on now. You can't admit what probably 85% of the people on this forum can. That Froch didn't deserve the win against Dirrell? It was a gift plain and simple. A complete robbery that he was given the decision.

                      Being on the outside looking in, I can't say what anyone else would've done(neither can you). Me or anyone else saying it was acting is speculation. If u don't think much of it, would you offer yourself up for AA to give you a shot like that while on your kees? I don't think so. Ez to say, when its not you.

                      I agree with a lot of what you said. They both deserve respect and I give them both their just due. But I will won't ever give froch props for a win against Dirrell, cuz in reality(not the record books), it just didn't happen.
