    Perhaps the way Bute unraveled in his first fight away from home rests uneasily in the back of Wards mind. Who knows?

    More than likely it's Ward wanting to gain more money to come over to the UK and fight Froch.

      Even when it will be he biggest payday and such an easy fight as you like to point out.
      The real question is why should there even be a rematch?

      Froch couldn't beat a 1 handed Ward at a neutral venue, so fighting in England isn't going to make a bit of difference.

        cause Ward wants the money and there's really no one else to fight?

          He hasn't been offered a payday yet, nobody has phoned him, being reluctant is simply to push up his price.

          He mentioned Wembley in his interview, he didn't rule out the UK, he said Hern needs to pick up the phone and call him

          Although I have a feeling Hern wants to avoid the fight and make the Bhop fight happen

            I really cannot believe how someone thinks, arguably, the best fighter in the world should be dictated to. Seriously. He's the top dog, he calls the shots.

            And if you're not suffering from some sort of comprehension handicap, Froch pretty much *****ed out of a rematch by claiming Ward wouldn't whoop his ass entertaining enough for him to watch on a replay. Great counter Froch. Just great. Really took away from a tremendous night for him.

              Froch has cemented himself as the clear no 2 in the division and he is clearly the cash cow.

                LOL I would count Froch in the nobody to fight category. I get the money, but I have no idea why fans would want this fight, the ending isn't changing.

                  He already cemented himself as the #2 man in the division once and got schooled. Nothing would change in a rematch.

                    Ward thinks otherwise with his reluctance to fight in the UK.

                      I agree, let Froch fight exciting fights and Ward can stay in Oakland fighting taxi drivers, or what ever bum HBO wants in front of 5000 fans.
