Comments Thread For: Carl Froch: If I Hit Ward's Jaw, I'll Do Serious Damage

You obviously didn't see the Dirrell fight. Mark my words, Froch will lose, and you will cry.

Quit seeing things through your rose-colored UK glasses, and starting living in reality son.

Froch is going to get worked. He knows it, I know it, and even YOU KNOW IT.

Denial is not only a river in Egypt.

Dirrell has superior reach, handspeed, footspeed and more power than Ward. Ward is better in the inside. Two different fighters.

[Rome-By-Ko]

Froch is under-rated by some but the only fight in which he has really looked good was against Abraham who just couldn't get past his jab. Ward is unlikely to have that problem. Froch was outboxed by Taylor for most of the fight, was outboxed by Dirrell for much of that fight, and brawled with Kessler in what should have been scored a draw or a very narrow win to Kessler (the actual scorecards were a travesty, but the result was reasonable).

By contrast, Ward has looked in a different class to all of his opponents in the Super 6, and has the rare ability to adjust to the style of his opponent. I would be truly astonished if he doesn't score a wide UD.

I differ from you on this,Froch has looked better with each fight imo..He fought the wrong fight out the box to Taylor(but he had a lot to prove in that debut)he was young but he got the victory..Dirrell did not deserve the victory although the fight was close I had Froch winning..Froch AA was pure domination and imo he beat AA the worst out of anyone else who beat AA..And Johnson need I say more..Ward is a Warrior and I'll give him that,he has been dominate in every fight..But tbh styles make fights and Froch has the perfect style to trouble Ward,and the power to make it count..

Froch has also fought the more versatile fighters which has help him be able to adapt to a fighter in the ring..Listen like I said already Ward deserves respect going into this fight,we all have are views on this fight and I can respect most of umm..But Ward dominating Froch I just can't see it..

If Froch is going to beat Ward, he needs to be able to hurt him with punches because otherwise i give him no chance of winning.

That's a big if Froch, AA said the same ish.

[The_Golden_Goy]

lol indeed

That's a big if Froch, AA said the same ish.

Froch already showed he is no AA,and tbh he is no Bika who Ward had some problems with..

[Rome-By-Ko]

Yes, they have. But that being said, Ward is all wrong for Froch. Froch will look like an amateur. Mark my words. Froch's ONLY chance is his power, but Ward is so damn seasoned, he's not going to get hit with anything flush.

Heck, Froch was WAY off the mark against Dirrell. It was pitiful. He was swinging those wide-looping ass punches, and missing by a foot at times! And he's going to hit Ward flush? Not likely.

The ONLY way Ward loses this fight, is if he GIVES it to Froch on a platter.

If he sticks to the gameplan, he'll make Froch look like a fool.

Your being a bit unrealistic,Bika was getting to him bro and Froch is better then him..

i can see Ward avoiding a brawl. I can;t see Froch backing off for long. the speed of Ward will win him rounds, but i think he might rely on some inside roughhousing to avoid a give and take. every which way, I can see Froch prevailing. Ward really has to put Froch in a bad place. I really dont want to see him win on defense, since I really think Ward has the tools to be an offensive storm. its possible that the Glen Johnson fight is going to make Andre think about being too close for comfort, and thats why this is such an exciting fight.

Your being a bit unrealistic,Bika was getting to him bro and Froch is better then him..

i was at that fight, and i can say it looked like Ward had an off night. not only that, but Bika wasnt getting any help from the judge. Ward elbowed him at one point. Bika was just as rough, but the ref was quick to warn him and free Andre up, but as soon as Bika found himself in the disadvantage, no ref. expected, but it was a really close fight that Ward barley won on points, yet the scores had him totally dominating.

Ward is prepared but he didnt have as easy of a night against Abraham than Froch did, plus Arthur wasnt the same fighter. Kessler seemed really lost in Oakland when Ward whooped him, but to be fair, the headbutts played a huge part in his downfall. Kessler fighting at home against Froch was a much different fighter all together. I want to see Ward on the road, so he can silence some of his critics. Both men deserve to be the best @ 168. I just happened to think Froch is the bigger personality, which in boxing terms means absolutely nothing.

Someone said Bika was getting to Ward and Froch is no Bika. If you are going to use that ****** analogy then apparantly you forgot that Ward DOMINATED Kessler who barely won a round. Guess what? The same fighter Ward reduced to nothing - beat Froch.
