    Could it have been possible that Ward was so far up on the cards that he didn't want to get caught with anything silly, like Jermaine Taylor did when he was clearly up on the cards, fought silly, ran out of gas, and got KOd..

      if froch beats Hopkins, then I'll say he improved.... but it might be that Kessler has lost a step

        I don't think he can beat Ward and I'd rather he fought alternative opponents.

          I think he'll do better in a rematch despite the hand injury on Ward's part.

          Ward was fading late in the first fight. Fading quite badly IMO.

              Donaire has a better chance of beating Rigo than Froch has of beating Ward.

                when they fought in the usa....it wasn't home court advantage for ward and they had neutral jugdes...if they fight in the UK froch wins via robbery...the first fight proved that there's a class difference...but ward isn't invincible...just froch ain't beating him

                  Idk why people say Ward was fading, he took his foot off the gas and cruised.

                  He beats Froch even more convincingly this time. Ward came into the fight with a severely broken hand, let me repeat that, he came into the fight with a broken hand, and STILL whooped Froch. He was able to throw it a few times however he really hurt it sometime around round 6 or 7.

                  Ward was around just 70% that match, imagine what he'd do to Froch at 100%!


                  Froch is the same fighter he was when he fought Ward, Kessler isn't as good as he used to be and Bute was mad overrated. Froch can beat anyone outside of Ward though.

                    More like 18K.

                    If they're doing Froch-Kessler at the 02 I can't see them taking Froch-Ward to Wembley.

                      No he really was fading.

                      He was clearly tired and breathing heavily in those last few rounds.
