    Froch took the loss like a warrior. Loosing to a better boxer is not the end of your carrier, it can make Froch a better boxer. The only way a champion goes back to the drawing board to add more tools to their game is with a loss like this one and the right attitude, which Froch is showing. Is too bad that his fans can't learn a thing or two from their idol.

      Fair play to Froch taking the defeat like a man.

      Ward just had too much class for him last night, an excellent performance.

        That's how you win fans after a loss.

        That's why I'm still the the Froch Bus of Destruction.

          There's still fights out there for Froch. A fght against the Kessler-Stieglitz winner would be good or a homecoming fight against someone like Bika

            How can you not like Froch? He couldn't figure Ward out tonight, but he never gave up and was ever ready to push any possible advantage.

            Froch justifies my faith in the "special relationship". There's a reason we end up on the same side time after time.

            God Save The Queen!

              I only seen Ward fight once and that was against Kessler and i didnt think Ward looked great. But i predicted Ward would beat Froch.
              A thing i noticed is that Haye and Froch have sparred with each other and the thing i noticed is that it was always Froch singing Hayes praises and i have never heard Haye come forward and say how good he remembers Carl Froch was.

              Also JT was beating Froch, until the last minute win. People look at the positives that Froch won but you have to look at the negative as well, the fact that he was losing. Kessler outpointed him, and Dirrell was controversial.
              People say how amazing it was he beat lightheavyweight Pascal. That was nice, but put it into perspective BH also beat him.

              So it was always pointing in the direction of Froch losing. Khan is the best british fighter as well. I was saying it before the Ward and Froch fight as well.

                    Froch could still beat the rest of the division. I don't expect him to go anywhere.

                      Come off it, people have looking at Froch's negatives since day one. If anything it was his positives which were being overlooked. He was a big underdog in nearly all his high profile fights. No one painted him out to be a master boxing tactician. His strengths were his gutsiness, his strength and his heart. I'd say, given his lack of speed, horrible defence and all the other flaws he has that what he achieved thus far is nothing short of insporational.
