Comments Thread For: Froch Admits He's Nervous About Judging in Ward Fight

[Medved]

Andre Ward is a pampered boxer and a pussy who has to have ALL his big fights in his home country, so crooked referees and shady judges are there to help out when needed.

Froch will have had 4 of his 5 Super Six fights in a foreign country. Is that fair?

This fight should have been in the UK, where it would fill a venue - Ward with his "headbutt and hold" style is not a draw in the US.

This is a LIE. Ward has atleast 14 people that will be there at the fight.

You see, Ward is so technically advanced that people dont understand his style, thats why the 20 people in the crowd are the only ones who understand and appreciate his style.

Why should this fight be in the UK? Just so 20,000 UK chavs can watch the fight and buy booze and increase the fighters salary? How dare you say that.

Froch is already lucky that Ward is traveling to the other side of the planet in AC for this fight, the original place was Ward's house in his backyard with 5 people since Ward gets shy infront of crowds, but I told him, just imagine everyone is naked and you wont have a problem with the 20 people.

I dont see Froch making any sacrifices? UK and Atlantic City is like a stone's throw away.

Did you know Ward will have to take a Aeroplane? Which means having to take a xanax and some gravol, do you not know what a strain that is?

I find it insulting that you would even dare say that Ward is not making sacrifices, we will be filing a protest that this fight happens in his Home's backyard because taking an Airplane is just UNFAIR and DOWN RIGHT NOT PROPER.

NEW YORK — Carl Froch admitted Tuesday that he’s nervous about judging leading up to his showdown with Andre Ward. [Click Here To Read More]

froch better get some euro, japanese, mexican, or puerto rican judges.

He beat DIRRELL because that was a home-town decision,look like he has forgotten..............DAMN!!!

[SAJ10]

Man has Froch got a cheek. The biggest robbery and hometown decision came in Nottingham when Dirrell was robbed.

Froch also got away with murder that night against the referee. Continual, consistant fouling - it was a disgrace. Rabbit punching, hitting after the break, manhandling Dirrell and even at one point throwing Dirrell to the floor and nothing was done about it.

With all the fouls with another ref he'd have been DQ'd but he didn't even have a point taken off. If I was Ward's team I'd be on about Froch and refs too.

I'm not sure questioning Showtime's integrity over the referee and judging is the smartest thing to do when they've gone out of their way to ensure the refs and judges are to be neutral.

If Froch doesn't like neutral ref and judges then they can easily bring in an American ref and judges - if he isn't happy with the current situation.

Goodness me, what does Froch want, to hand pick the ref and judges himself - their neutral Carl for goodness sake. Will Carl not be happy unless his Dad is the ref and his family our the judges.

THEIR NEUTRAL CARL. A luxury that wasn't afforded to Calzaghe when he fought in America but still won.

They should get judges like this, one judge from the uk, one judge from the usa, one judge from any other country. Tho, that doesn't guarantee a fair-shake since clearly some shady stuff goes down sometimes where judges are paid off.

I mean fo God sake, clinching and inside fighting is part of the professional game - it's part of what seperates it from the amauters.

If you don't like it watch amateur boxing and if you don't want it as a fighter then leave the pros and go back to the amateurs.

Ward in his last fight had an amateur refeeree that wouldn't leave alone for a sceond without breaking them up. So he's already been seen with an incompetent ref in his last fight. He should worried and on the case.

Clinching and inside fighting is part of the prefessional sport and should be allowed - if it gets excessive then the ref has to step in, but not to allow it all, well, this isn't amateur boxing.

And you of course have proof of this, right?

And you of course have proof of this, right?

Exactly...Look, I think Tunney's a decent poster but when he goes on these hate tangents like this he looks ridiculous. The Kessler fight in which he harps so much about, Ward completely dominated the fight without fighting inside the vast majority of the first half of the fight, what's your excuse as to why Ward was winning when he was right in front of Kessler pounding him with jabs and combinations and Kessler couldn't even come close to finding Ward....And then his fight with Abraham, there was absolutely no holding whatsoever and what happened?...Ward dominated almost every single round and only getting hit with two or three somewhat notable shots...I mean look if you don't think Ward's a great fighter, cool that's your opinion, but don't falsely discredit the kid for wins he truely earned...This kid jumped out of the fryingpan right into the fire when he entered this tournament and most people didn't think he'd even make it past Kessler, and when he did and even dominated, people got all *****y....sorry but it's absolutely ridiculous.

It will be an easy night for the judges. 10-9 Ward, 10-9 Ward, 10-9 Ward and so forth and so on

theses dudes go hate me for all this stuff i'm talking.LOL.

This ^...............

[Squizz]

Froch shouldn't be worried about the judges. He should be worried about the lop-sided beatdown he's going to be on the receiving end of. Boxers give him problems. Taylor gave him problems, Dirrell gave him problems (and deserved the win, IMO), and Kessler gave him problems. He's not getting past Ward folks. Hate to break it to ya'.
