[BattlingNelson]

LMAO!!!!

Hahahahaha.

Sucks that Ward wants a big fight so bad he's hoping for a Froch rematch. He'll probably end up fighting whoever wins the Kessler-Froch rematch.

Is this the tweet that started it?

@SkySportsBoxing Carl, why do you make so many excuses when things don't go your way?? Answer please...

Doesn't bother me that Ward's trying to create some buzz for a fight but it seems like a strange angle to come at Froch of all people. Maybe his buddy Nonito would be a better man to answer that one.

I think the point is Froch and Kessler are getting the £ and ward is pissed about it come on people its that simple....

Indeed. No point being mad at them though.

Utimately, people love to watch Kessler and Froch, and they don't love watching Ward. In fact, ****loads of people are going to buy the PPV to watch them, I don't know anyone who would buy a Ward PPV despite him being a top P4P fighter.

I'm normally a huge fan of boxers (Rigondeaux, Mayweather and the likes being my favourites to watch), but Ward's holding and hitting style really isn't something I like to watch.

Ward has called him and Kessler out on it multiple times now, they only mention his name half-assedly to make themselves sound like they want to fight. They don't. Neither of them are interested it facing him again. Ward ever offered to go to Europe to fight Kessler after winning the Super Six, Kessler didn't want it.

Carl is one of my favorite fighters and total warrior, but he is a peg below Andre Ward, and he's been a completely sore loser since the fight. Ward gave Froch and Kessler respect, but all Froch has done is ***** and moan.

Fans of Froch and Kessler come with all kinds of **** to try to discredit Ward; he's a mauler, he holds, he's not a draw, he's got a boing style, he has no fans, excuses excuses excuses.

Andre Ward absolutely sonned Froch. Shut him down. No slander on internet forums or talking **** from Twitter is going to change that.

I'm a fan of both and Froch got outclassed with 1 hand, yes. However, I don't think there's any evidence to suggest Froch would duck a Ward rematch. Firstly, Froch has never ducked anything. Secondly, Froch has spoken of a rematch many times, and i'm sure he'll go after one if he wins this fight. They might talk crap about eachother, but i'm sure it's all a media stunt to sell fights. Outside of boxing I bet Ward and Froch are pretty close friends. I don't think any respectable poster here would try and say that these twitter rivalries excuse the fight they had.

Aside from that, i'd love to see a rematch. Ward outclassed him the first time round, but it makes financial sense, and any Froch fight is a good fight.

If Froch wins, let em fight again. Froch is right (Ward not fan friendly) but it's on him to beat Ward in the ring no matter what the style.

Why the inverted commas? Froch is a champ; Kessler's the fake 'champ'.

[yoz]

Big fan of Ward, but this comes across as sour g****s.

Froch-Kessler II is one of the most anticipated fights of 2013 and will be a huge PPV draw. Ward, despite being the top dog at 168, can't fill a venue outside of Oakland.

Ward beat Froch in the ring and outside too. He's a better fighter and a cooler guy.
