Froch is a confidence fighter. And honestly I dont think he was confident he could win against Ward in the Finals. **** the "Warrior Mentality" everyone claims he has. He's a fighter that doubted himself against Ward.. Dont get me wrong a big return win against undefeated Bute and if he can avenge his first loss to Kessler next, I have no doubt he'll have the confidence it takes to beat Ward. But even having the Confidence and the crowd backing your every punch doesnt mean you'll win... That's how good Ward is. The rematch will be closer but I cant see Froch winning unless its by KO or Robbery...

sometimes fans are just in denial, their PRIDE won't let them admit that a fighter is better then their favorite fighter
I see absolutely nothing in the 1st Match Up to make me believe that Froch could do better in a rematch, I guess he could maybe win a few Rounds against Ward in a rematch I guess lol I don't know but for the most part I just don't see him beating Ward unless it is in Nottingham and he gets a Robbery Decision over Ward and a win like that would do absolutely NOTHING for his legacy
what really shocked me and may have also Shocked Froch, is the exchanges, Ward won every exchange they got into and at the end of those exchanges is was FROCH backing out of those exchanges, I think he underestimated WARD'S Power and Toughness
sorry but the outcome will be no different, I see Ward scoring yet another Comfortable UD over Froch, he could score a lucky punch and knock Ward Out...but he is too damn slow to catch Ward with anything he doesn't see coming

Froch could fight Ward in his mother's house with Froch's family as the judges and he still probably couldn't get close to winning~
Also he didn't look great against a different Andre in his hometown, so I don't see how that makes any sort of difference~

The only reason Froch was able to even get 3 rounds on Ward was because Ward wasn't 100%. Wards hand was severely broken, Froch was 100% healthy. If Ward had a healthy hand coming into the fight he shuts Froch out.
How many boxers have you ever heard of that came into a championship fight with a broken hand? A few days before the fight Ward said it hurt him to even hit the mitts!

You dudes just don't get what these guys are saying tho, or you just tryna ignore it on purpose because you know there's no denyin it.. WARD HAD A MASSIVE ADVANTAGE IN THE SUPER SIX.. He fought ALL his fights IN THE US and NEVER had to travel to Europe. The whole point of the tournament being US vs Europe was so that fighters would TRAVEL across the continents to face the adversity of being away from their home country. But Ward NEVER had to do that EVEN ONCE!
How the hell you know ANYTHING about how Ward would perform when he's in Froch's home country? The guy has NEVER proved himself against a top-notch fighter outside the US his ENTIRE CAREER! . Every other original Super 6 fighter had to do that! EVERY ONE BUT ANDRE FRAUD!
If that aint a damn joke WTF is? that dude need to grow some balls like Bradley do.

Worst Froch i saw, and to be honest the Johnson fight too he looked very poor imo,
I remember ringside before the Ward fight they asked Froch "you feeling good, you feeling sharp Carl?" and he just moaned about feeling "old" and i remember thinking wtf is with you man?
i thought he was done but maybe he was just worn out or something?
If Froch turns on the heat early, I doubt Ward could cope for 12 straight rounds. A rematch should happen in Nottingham while Froch is confident and riding high!

if froch could simply blow ward's doors off with power and take all of his gas he would have
he couldnt
he got badly touched up. ward's not a huge puncher but he's not a small guy. when a guy that size puts his hands on you like that you feel the effects.
