      One of the original Ward believers here. You may remember an old signature, "ANDRE WARD WILL ARRIVE, 11/21/2009".


      You know what, I thought this was you....and yes, I remember that sig.

        Ward would've fully spanked Dirrell and made him cry.

          You can argue that Kessler's jab is more effective. My point is more that it's unfair to say that Froch's jab is just not good at all (he uses it in a few different ways to a few different effects, too, so it's a versatile tool).
          I guess saying it's not good at all is an overstatment.

          But it's not that good I would say distinctly average and certainly not as good as Kessler's which was being argued.

          All I was doing was dis*****g that statment which frankly is outright false.

              This is a good point and I think alot of people overlook this. Ward is versatile.

                  He still would have lost to Kessler whether it was in Froch's hometown, Kessler's hometown, or the Desert.

                  Atleast he would have deserved to have lost. Regardless to if they gave the decision to Froch like they did in the Dirrell fight.

                  Because Kessler clearly beat Froch.
                  IMO I had Froch by(I believe I'm not home)1 or 2 points..I did not think it was a robbery due to the fact it was close..So in a different venue maybe a different outcome..

                    You had Froch winning?

                    I can't see how.

                    The fight was close, but clear.

                    Kessler clearly and rightfully won the fight regardless to the venue.

                      Uhmmmmm.....they both faced Kessler.....one of them won and one of them lost...
