      Ward is a nice guy - but this is the entertainment business and his business went BUST in the recession.

      A dog tired Froch, who'd campaigned around the world against one top fighter after another, still gave him problems and it's a good job for Andre it was not a 15-round fight because he looked at that clock about 6 times in the 12th round.

      He knows, with a rabid 20,000 uk fans in a packed arena and a full-steam ahead Carl Froch coming at him, he could fall before the finish line this time.

        The first fight wasn't even close. Froch needs Ward a lot more than Ward needs Froch.

          If he thinks Kessler-Froch II was poor ratings, what does Ward consider his own ratings?

          Kessler-Froch probably had more views in europe alone than Ward's last 3 fights combined....not to mention the 3 hour, 20,000 sell-out, not even sure what Ward gets.

            Ward sounds ignorant....

            the ratings were good for fighters who arent well known amongst the casual fan. Froch brings money, just look at the sold out 02. Only difference is that the Chavez money comes to the U.S. so Ward doesnt have to travel outside the U.S.

              To Paraphrase Ward.

              "Froch said a bunch of stuff.. But No dammit!!!.. I am saying that stuff."

                Ward just wants to get paid. Can't knock him. He's stuck though in all reality.

                  Nobody is debating that. Nobody is even saying the rematch would be any different but in all reality, ward needs Froch. Can't deny it.
