    maybe because it was on showtime instead of HBO? or the fact that boxing is not payed as much attention as it used to be or maybe not as many people knew about froch and ward as say the big names of nowadays like pac & floyd or k-brothers or cotto

      U know what i ment.African americans,They need to suppport him better.

            A fan friendly style??
            He RUNS and backpeddles against the sorry comp they put before him.

            His fans are just desperate for something...andything...to cheer for.

              No I didn't know what you meant. Why African-Americans instead just Americans like I said? Andre Ward was not born in Africa therefore he is not African-American. Ward was born in America which makes him American. Ward is a black american just like Kelly Pavlik is a white american. Both just plain old Americans of different colors.

              By the way I am an American that went to the Ward vs. Froch fight! To support my fellow American.

                You have a Brit against a talented but not very exciting African American, for the most part outside of Floyd the African Americans haven't been getting much fan following like in the past.
                Not nearly as sad as mexicans packing the house to see sorry fighters like chavez jr and alvarez.

                Unlike mexicans...African Americans aren't limited to a couple of sports and weight divisions.

                Black boxers have to contend with other stars from other sports...mexicans don't have nearly as many sports stars..

                    How about the fact that NOBODY believed Froch had a chance

                    was Ward fighting himself? why are people bringing up race am I missing something?

                    the biggest Draws in boxing are BLACK and Filipino...NOT Mexican or a Brit so I really don't get all this talk about who are Draws and who are not

                    what was the Cotto vs Margarito PPV Numbers? What ever it was it wasn't close to Pacquiao or Mayweather Numbers

                      NO! BOXING FANS NEED TO SUPPORT BOXERS BETTER IN GENERAL!

                      What is with trying to SEPARATE FAN BASES? Oscar, Tyson, they was PPV Kings not because they was just supported by their own but because they was Supported by ALL PEOPLE especially Oscar who had Fans of ALL RACES...not just Mexicans...in fact he was HATED by his own for years especially after the Chavez fight
