    If Froch doesn't fight Ward, is it a duck?

    Just wondering what people feel if Frochy decides to fight someone who isn't Ward that they'd consider it a duck?

    I don't think you can call ducking on two boxers, who already fought. There will always be valid reasons not to fight again.

      Froch has more options than Ward.

      I don't see Froch beating Ward wherever takes though, and the UK is where the money would be for a Froch fight.

        I'm in the no camp for this.

        If he does fight Ward i think it should be in the UK. Has Ward ever gone up against a hostile atmosphere?

        Ward would still win admittedly.

          I'd love to see that. It would make the fight much more interesting. I wouldn't blame Ward if he refused to fight in the UK though and it has nothing to do with Froch getting home advantage.

            The whole Wembley business won't happen though, people in England know who Kessler is through fighting Carl before and fighting Calzaghe.

            In reality most casual boxing fans over here would probably only know Ward due to his arrogant post fight analysis where instead of praising the fighters for going to war he decided to push his own agenda in a way that made him look like such a tosser.

              Its been 2 days. What the hells wrong with you people? This isnt soccer, baseball, or football with a set schedule. Now people are gonna spend the next several months making pointless threads about Froch from his fans and his haters. How can you say anybodies ducking when its been 2 days?

                So I guess he should have let froch disrespect his style and not reply. He merely was answering froch.

                    How can you duck someone you already fought?
