    You haven't had to endure his entire career, I guess.

    You guys only got to see him claim he dominated Dirrell, had an easy fight with Taylor (that he got knocked down in and was soundly being beaten before the last round), whinge and moan and claim robbery over Kessler and act like the Johnson fight was a shut out.

    Then again, that alone is enough for me.
    Thats the perfect way to sum it up... unless your a nuthugger....

      We know what Ward is about, he fights the same way every fight. He has his strengths and weaknesses. But can he hurt Froch, only his head can. Can Froch hurt him, most definitely.

      The low left is a problem for Carl defensively but make his jab difficult see coming and will hopefully make Ward throw.

      Ward going to try and spoil, make it a messy fight and hopefully steal a decision.
      I would say the one thing Ward doesn't do is fight the same way every fight. He is very, very versatile and I think you're going to be in for a shock when these two meet.

        As much as I hate Froch, I am in love with the guy compared to my view on Joe Calzaghe.

        I can respect Carl Froch, atleast.

        You would not happen to be Hopkins fan by any chance?

          you've said a few times u think people are gonna be surprised and shocked at the outcome of the fight, saying as most people think Ward will win a decision, do u think he's gonna stop Froch?

              No way. But I think it will be quite one-sided. And that he will outbox Froch on the outside and rough him up bad in close quarters.

                Well I only seen Ward's fights since Kessler and he fights the same, some times more holding and headbutting but it is the same style.

                What do you think Ward is going to do, serriously?

                Come in walk Froch down, throw 60-80 punches around, how exactly do you think he is going to surprise him.

                My money is still on the birthday cake, Carl will be shocked.

                  So you have seen 4 Andre Ward fights? Now it makes sense.

                  You have seen Ward fight Green and Kessler and claim he fights the same in every fight.

                  Now I'm baffled again.

                    Who is more active?

                    Who has the longer and better jab?

                    Ward is going to be taken out of his comfort zone.

                    Carl will control Ward at range and let him come towards him and eat that jab.

                      You've seen Ward since...Kessler? That's it?
