    Do we have a deal?

    How about my 2 mil to your 20 mil. I would think the odds on this thing are more like this.

        Styles make fights.

        I just see something in Froch's defense that I think Ward will exploit all night. I don't see Froch really having an answer, which is why I think the ref/corner will stop it.

        Of course I could be wrong. But in all honesty, the only fight I've been completely wrong on this year was the Pac vs Marquez fight.

          Yes, I saw the Kessler fight. I'm pretty sure Froch got hurt in that fight as well. Along with the Dirrel, Taylor, and Johnson fights.

          Styles make fights.

          Regarding Froch stopping Ward, that is very possible. I remember Ward got hurt early in his career by Kenny Kost, I believe. But that's not how I see this fight playing out.

              I'll bet you all my points for 1 million of yours that no one is legitimately stopped.

                Let's see your reasoning:

                1. Ward doesn't hit as hard as Dirrel, Abraham, Johnson, or Taylor. Basically Ward's not the hardest puncher that ever fought Froch so that means Ward can't stop froch. Shane Mosley says hi to Margarito

                2. Froch won't get stopped because he has an iron chin. Do you need me to list all of the iron chin fighters that have been stopped on their feet?

                Listen, if you don't think it can't be done, that's fine. But your logic and reasoning behind it makes me believe you just started watching boxing this year. Relax and enjoy the weekend.
                ok and ugh duh! Wheres your logic that Ward can stop Froch? ra ra ******

                  Um, he'd certainly be right up there.

                    Dirrel hurt Froch with one punch and Dirrel chased Froch to the ropes and land a few more clean punches whilst Froch instantly recovered to throw punches back

                    Kessler only really hurt Froch with body shots.. he took some great punches but his balance never went

                    Jermain Taylor landed an overhand right hand that would have knocked out a horse,Froch was down and his eyes were clear,instant recovery

                    Johnson never hurt froch with any shots that made it seem his balance was gone

                    So basically the only signs of Froch getting hurt was by one punch bombs that landed flush too which he instantly recovered to throw punches back :*******:

                      Everyone knows Ward doesn't have huge 1 punch KO power. But that won't be the factor here. I think it will be an accumulation of punches from Ward that will stop Froch; especially if the ref let's them fight on the inside.

                      Froch is a descent puncher but he leaves himself to wide open during exchanges. This is tailor made for a precision puncher like Ward.

                      Froch has a chin, but it's not what everyone is making it out to be. Dirrel, Kessler, Johnson and Taylor all had Froch hurt.

                      If Margarito and Mayorga can be KO'd, so can Froch.

                      Again, it obviously won't be a one shot KO. But the accumulation of punches from Ward will have this fight play out like Margarito vs Mosley.
                      Margarito and Mayorga don't fight intelligently. The comparison is completely worthless. Maragrito leads with his chin. Mayorga isn't even worth describing in regards to this comparison. Froch occasionally gets tagged hard, but the majority of the time he is fighting to a gameplan.

                      While it is very much possible for Froch to get stopped despite a decent chin. There is nothing stylistically about this fight that would suggest Ward is in position to stop Froch. Unless you are thinking Ward will be dropping headbutts and cutting Froch. I've made jokes about your name before, but the reality is you think you're smarter than you are. You've done some mental math here where you jumped steps and drew a more creative than fact based conclusion.
