Andre Ward is going to school Carl Froch

[V.WEBB]

Ward beats him with relative ease IMO.

I concur. I can't wait.

As much as I like Froch, Ward is just on another level. I think Ward will cement his place as one of the top 5 fighters in boxing with a masterful boxing performance.

I don't really see landing a couple of punches then clinching as a masterclass in boxing. Very intelligent, not masterful though.

[Rome-By-Ko]

right, so he must have been pretty lucky so far in his career?

Johnson only caught him as he kept carelessly dropping his left hand, Kessler fight could have gone either way at this level styles make a fight I dont think Kessler is more skillful.

After Kessler defeat he knows he cant just go out and **** everyone out therefore I think he will use his boxing skills to open up Ward to then knock him out.

differnt opinions, lets see what happens!

I would also like to point out Froch has fought and beat many different styles while Ward has fought the same kinda fighter his last four fights..Slow come forward kinda fighters..He did not fight Dirrell or Taylor,both I think wuld have gave Ward a hard time(not saying they would have won)..Easy to look good against fighters coming right at him with lil skill to talk about..Froch will make Ward come to him and use his reach,Froch will give Ward trouble I don't know how anyone feels Ward schools Froch...

Froch jab is better then Kesslers,his ability to fight coming forward or off the backfoot..Not to mention Froch will not be bullied,he seems physically stronger then Kessler..His conditioning is second to none..Ward will not have an easy night bro..

No, it's not. Its really not, at all.

Kessler's jab is absolutely better than Froch's jab. Froch doesn't even have a good jab. Unlike Kessler, who does.

I would say he's argubally physically stronger, not really by much.

That's possibly the only thing Froch brings to the table that Kessler doesn't.

Maybe chin, maybe.

Ok, you don't think so. I think he will.

No one thought he would have an easy night with Kessler either. Hell, no one gave him a chance with Kessler, infact.

And again, Kessler is a better fighter than Froch anyway.

If Ward can beat Kessler easily then it's simply not out of the question he can do it with Froch.

Isn't this literally the entire basis of Froch's 'skill level'?

His fight with Abraham?

And as for Dirrell and Taylor, Froch looked pretty average in both of those fights.

I don't think Ward would have had ANY trouble with JT.

andre ward would've been KTFO vs the taylor that froch fought

As if he gets hit all that clean. And JT has one of the worst defenses I've ever seen. You can't miss JT.

lol, ward isn't slick, and if taylor can catch hopkins he can catch ward

[IMDAZED]

Why does Ward move only into the top five with a convincing win over Froch. Who ranked above him would have a better win in the past three years? Maybe Martinez and I'm not so sure about that.
