Froch said this to the BBC Sport: “I’m going to knock him [Ward] out. He’s not a big puncher. I’m a guy to put him on his back foot. It’s going to shock the world. It’s a fight I know I can win. I’m going to get under his skin and try and get him to come to me, and try to fight. That’s not going to be by trash talking; it’s going to be by telling him what I think of him, and what I strongly believe I can do to him.”
Let’s be real about this. Froch and Ward are on different levels. Froch is slow, lacks inside fighting ability and is easy to hit. Ward is a superb boxer with mad skills on both the outside and the inside. Ward will be able to pick whichever distance that suits him and do well against the slower Froch. This is a fight in which Ward has many different ways of beating Froch. For his part, Froch only has a puncher’s chance to win and even that’s not a good one because he’s not really a huge puncher.
Ward is going to destroy this guy
