carl gotta put some pressure and steal some points

[psilas]

Wtf

What Kessler vs Ward fight were u chumps watching?

'Ward beat Kessler pretty' and Kessler tried beating Ward with the jab and 'got hammered' etc is completely untrue and not close to what happened.

Some of you fools REALLY don't know boxing AT ALL!

Kessler stalked Ward and went after him for most of the fight and was fouled over and over. Whenever Ward got hit he held,butted and survived for dear life.

Kessler looked crap anyway and nowhere near hungry but if that fight were anywhere else it would have been a DQ win for Kessler,no doubt.

FAR too many Ward nut huggers around.

Froch has the right idea for this fight, keep this powder puff foul merchant at range,as soon as hes in range...Jab him,right hand then step off,away or backwards.Ward has no power at all and relies on making every fight hes in a VERY,VERY messy affair.

Allan Green,Kessler AND Bika....ALL messy fights because of one man.....WARD.

Ward = Hyped,boring,predictable....MESSY.

He's no HOF thats for sure and Froch should win this with relative ease providing he stays away and lets Ward come to him.

A Carl Froch fan talking about fouls lol. You know how many times he hit Dirrell behind the head, hit during the break, hit him in the back, headlocked him and threw him down?

After watching that vid, I'm glad he did! Look at how many times Dirrell holds, look at how many times he bends down so low that his head is below his waist! Froch was right to rough him up. Good for him! More fighters should do that when they're facing an opponent who runs and holds all night.

If you're cool with that then more power to you but you can't praise a fighter for using rough house tactics and then hate on another fighter for doing the same.

Kessler tried that too, and guess what, he got starched

What a steaming pile of piss.

[freedom213]

it's not Froch's instinct to sit on the outside, instinctively he looks to brawl and have a tear-up, his trainer has tried to discourage this where it wasn't needed.

imo at most he might stay on the outside for the opening 2 rounds and if/when it doesn't work he'll take the fight to Ward

Froch really needs to go back to his old style and try to force Andre into a fight. If he tries to box Ward it wont go well. Ward has already shown a very good ability to play the bully and is obviously a very strong guy himself. I could be wrong but this style match up is all wrong for the Cobra. I see this starting out exciting and quickly becoming a boxing lesson with Ward cruising to a UD.

Manny starched Hatton, Donaire starched Montiel, Sergio starched Williams

Ward did NOT starch Kessler

Carl will give it everything he has as always, but Wards superior speed, technique, and more importantly timing will see him get a clear but competitive points win
