Or he was practicing his headbutts and it backfired?

bwhaahhahahahahah!!!

Ya, I can see why it was postponed now. Not the worst cut, but really bad spot for one.

They call that, a cut?

I've had worse cuts during shaving.

Nah, that is a bad cut, and in the worst place.

It may not have necessarily been fight-ending had the cut occurred during a bout, but you cant train/prepare for an upcoming fight with a hole like that in your head.

There wasn't even a need for it to be shown. i would take his word for it. He hasn't ran from anyone yet & I don't think that he needed to start now. A little postponment is ok. It's still one of the most important fights in the sport.

Me too, I never once suspected that the cut was not serious enough to delay the fight. Good call by his team, hard on Froch, but thats boxing.

def a bad enough cut to postpone

So he paid a make-up artist to do that. So what?

[ShoulderRoll]

So he paid a make-up artist to do that. So what?

He paid a make-up artist to postpone the fight a whopping 2 more months?

Let me guess, when they show this cut on Fightcamp 360 you'll say that Ward paid Showtime too?

I don't think some of you know how long it actually takes a cut like that to heal.

If he tried to fight next month, he runs a good risk of it reopening. Postponing was the right idea; we don't want any excuses from either boxer after this fight.
