      Use the jab to maintain and control distance on the outside, look for a counter left hook when he lunges in with his wide uppercuts. Work down stairs a bit every round, then in the middle rounds work your way inside, smother his range, don't let him get any room, batter him to the body, if you see an opening for the stoppage, switch to southpaw and shoot straight lefts upstairs and downstairs, and fire right hook, can't get him out? Kill some time and coast in the final minutes of the fight.

        Most important is the lateral movement, especially when Froch stick his long arse arm out to gauze the distance. Move to Froch's left and pop him. Froch is not gonna do well with a moving target. If POSSIBLE, get on Froch's chest. Froch can't fight that way and needs range. Froch may resort to hugging more as his uppercuts is not that great. Repeat this over and over.


        AND watch out for Froch's right.

        Just do what you did with Kessler and you will be fine.

        UD in 12. I see at least 8-4 for Ward. May be as much as 10-2.

        A big factor is whether or not Ward is fully heal from cut.
