Will Froch be screwed in NJ when he fights Ward?

From Kevin Iole's column New Jersey suspends Williams-Lara judges

He writes, "Williams’ promoter, Dan Goossen, did not seem particularly bothered by Smith’s decision to suspend the judges, though he has a vested interest in toeing the line. Andre Ward, whom Goossen promotes, will meet Carl Froch in the finals of Showtime’s Super 6 tournament on Oct. 29 in Atlantic City."

I'm from NJ but I think they need to move this fight to a different location like Las Vegas or Canada. Ward-Froch is a big fight that deserves fair judging and neutrality. I know that boxing has a long history of bad judging. However, until a full investigation is held concerning all stakeholders in the Williams-Lara fight, NJ shouldn't host a fight for a while, especially when the promoter of the beneficiary of the decision is involved. Any thoughts?

The Johnson fight was in Atlantic City. No worries.

Dan Goossen is Andre Wards promoter so of course he will. I don't think its gonna matter tho, I think Ward clearly beats him. But if something strange does happen like Froch pulls upset off and looks dominate in a decision win. Don't be shocked when Ward wins. Dan Goossen is the crook of boxing.

Given all the decisions that go for American fighters in the USA, I think Froch has got to go for the knockout. He needs to put Ward on the canvas, hopefully more than once. It has too be real decisive. I don't see Froch being able to win a close one on the cards.

NJ has some ******ed judges, I wouldnt be suprised if Pierre Benoist is judging the fight, he's the tard who had the Pwill-Martinez I fight 119-110.

They need to bring in outside judges, NJ has proven it cant judge/stop them from being bribed.

I hate to say it, but the problem isn't Oakland nor New Jersey. The problem is America. Foreign fighters can simply not go to that country and expect to win a close one on the cards vs an American fighter, especially some up and comer with a bit of shine on them like Andre Ward.

In fact, Andre Ward has been the lucky recipient of some in-ring calls as well as judging verdicts. For example, there were lots of fouls against Kessler that weren't called and while Ward won the Bika fight, he didn't win by the wide margins the judges had it as.

The problem is in this place or that place. The problem is fighting American fighters in America.

Froch is guaranteed a fair fight after the Williams Vs. Lara Fiasco......
But at the end of the day he will still lose the fight, S.O.G. will prove to be to much!!!!
