[Video]Staredown: Andre Ward vs. Carl Froch

[SaintGeorge]

I thought Ward came across really well in that, seems a nice lad. I think they both have a lot of respect for each other which is good in one way but in another you want that bit of edge or needle in a fight.

I genuinely think it's a 50-50 fight, however Froch should be careful, I have the feeling he"ll go in there and try and walk straight through Ward, it's dangerous IMO. If Ward had the one punch power, hed become an all time great.

I slightly lean towards Froch in this one, his skills are underrated and he puts everything on the line and he also has that bit more expierience. I think both beat Bute, comfortably.

this should be another classic matchup with two guys who are almost at the pinnacle of their careers.

Judging from the johnson vs froch fight i dont see froch being able to deal with the speed and superior boxing ability ward brings. It's good to be confident but i have a feeling that froch has underestimated ward as a powder puff guy that he feels he will dominate. I see this being his greatest miscalculation.

Number one: I think froch thinks he is the stronger fighter, ward seems to be extremely strong physically.

Secondly, froch thinks ward will not be able to hurt him and that he is gunning for the ko. This could be a bit of subterfuge as i've seen froch say this and then obviously have a strategy of boxing (froch vs abraham). If he tries to box ward that would probably be a huge mistake, but my point is there are many ways to knock a guy out, ward may not be able to 1 punch ko froch(i actually think he lands the right punch he just could do that) but he could definitely get that stoppage a number of other ways.

I see ward doing a number on froch, delivering a masterpiece.

first off ward is not claiming he is "the" son of god but "a" son of god (church talk)
secondly he is not intentionally a dirty fighter
and lastly froch is about to get outboxed in this match

Froch is cast as the bad guy.

He might as well have said he disliked Ward. But Froch is so honest so he didn't take the bait. If he says he hasn't been hurt - he hasn't been.

Can Ward knock him out? Yes. Like Ward says: 'any man can be knocked out.'

Froch is going to lose a fight widely and come out of it feeling like he hasn't been in a fight. Ward's strength is key.

And really, Carl is not a devastating puncher at this level which is absolutely elite. But who are apart from Heayweights at the top level? But if he believes that he is the puncher, there may be something in it.

But I don't think Froch can stop Ward either.

Ward came across very well. He's very confident and I can't help but like him. Froch's interrupting was very revealing. Ward was piercingly accurate when he said Froch needs to be in control.

p.s. - Ward might just be claiming to be the son of a God. There are thousands of gods so there's a fair chance he might be telling the truth...

[Sparked_1985]

I'm a catholic. We are all sons of God.

If he said The then it would be digusting.

Still a bit irritating though. Religion has no place in boxing. Tim Bradley for me is the worst, he is always thanking God for victory. What happen's when he gets beat? Is he going to think God has smited him..wanker!

[Check_hooks]

Froch will win. He has the better style and has fought the tougher fights. No disrespect to Ward but Froch will win this fight.

[KickAzz]

My heart is with Froch, my brain says Ward will win.

In many cultures it is impolite to stare. In this case, the Showtime Producers suggested that they stare. I

Carl Froch sounds like an idiot. His attempt to play mind games is weak.

Can't wait for this fight.
