    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.
    Yeah because he hugged him more times than he hugs his own SONS.

    Face it....Ward holds and hits, makes more contact with his head than with his jab and leans/pushes on opponents like they are a car in neutral. Those crap fights against Ward and Kessler were pathetic. If that's called boxing and winning than I wouldn't want to fight him again either. Froch and Kessler's style are more warrior than survivor (a la Ward and Dirrell), which is why we want to see Carl and Mikkel. Instead of starting shyt on Twitter Andre, be a fucking man and go up to 175 and try all those tactics on a bigger dude.

      Ward already beat the best at 175. I know Dawson moved down in weight, but no one at LHW has a good enough inside game to stop Ward from doing that.

        To be honest, Carl did better when Ward got inside, when he was on the outside Froch was way too slow to land on him (until the last couple of rounds when Ward tired).

        LOL at that ****. Froch can talk all he wants, but he wants no part of a Ward rematch.
        He does, and he said he'd be willing to travel again to make it happen if he has to.

        Kessler tried to make the Ward fight earlier this year, but Ward wouldn't travel. Kessler then gave the go-ahead to make the Froch fight.

        No doubt, the likes of daggum would be all over it.

        Ward wants a Froch rematch, that's what all this is about imo. Froch still has to get past Kessler however.

            Ward never fought at 175.

              when they talk trash it's a froch KO. not to mention his wife is a total dish, and ward's is an ugg.
              I respect Ward a lot for staying with his high school sweetheart. He could easily like many other successful men, dump his gilrfriend and pick up some random model instead.

                not all of his fights have been ugly (exceptions: the Kessler + Sakio Bika fights), it's just that they're so one-sided and he doesn't always go for the knockout. That's nothing to hate on a guy for, that's just smart boxing.

                  Froch didn't win more than three rounds. I have no idea what the judges were thinking. Nearly lights out? LOL Froch wasn't even close....Ward dominated and made Froch look very average.

                    Didnt Froch acknowledge immediately after the fight that Ward handled him and he didnt deserve a rematch?

                    Sounds like these dudes are trying to sell a future PPV that no one would buy if they didnt have "beef". Im pretty sure that they are friendly. There is no way that these 2 wouldnt respect each other immensly. They are two of the most intelligent and respectable guys in the business.

                      This is true.

                      The only one who had it wide for Ward was the 'bias Brit judge.'

                      Ward wasn't brilliant at the end of that fight.
