Why is Ward Rated Above Carl Froch?

[WESS]

Me included. Just a shame Ward isn't as eager.

Why would he? He can stay where he's at, make money and clown every last fighter with ease, including Froch.

Until the demand is backed with money, he won't move up. He will stay and clean out the SMW's once again.

Carl Froch beat more caliber fighters and more consistently then Ward, and Ward is/was begging Froch for the rematch cause lets be honest Froch Defeated all would be opponents for Ward. (meanwhile Ward was trying to get a easy fight against a drain Dawson, Froch destroyed Kessler, Bute, Mack and is now going after groves)

The rematch is their for Ward if hes willing to go to london or whatever, but he is not.

Ward is not willing to take a drug test (denied it 3 times already)

at what point do we say okay, you beat froch but froch is still the overall better fighter, since you know that is what the p4p list is all about who is the best overall fighter RIGHT NOW!

Froch is the overall better fighter then ward.

Dude, your hero isn't even top 20. Plus he looks like he has aids. He sucks; thats why ward is ranked above him.

so if he did beat froch with one hand , why did they postpone the original fight-date because ward suffered a little scratch on his forehead during sparring (while wearing a padded helmet) ??? wouldnt a broken hand be more of a reason to delay the fight than a tiny scratch that might open up on fight night?

this is the truth boxing fans! remember ward has been working with Victor Conte (old Victor is one of the biggest wizards in the performance enhancing drugs business)

In the UK this matchup would be a different scenario with a decent ref sorting things out . Its well known how prone Ward is to use questionable tactics..

(excessive holding/clinching, headbutts, elbows, armlocks,low blows)

Ward is like a combination of Bernard Hopkins skillset and slickness & Andre Dirrell's alertness and footspeed all this along with the Sven Ottke
hometown record/ref/judges and loud (but kinda small) crowd

I dont think Ward is necessarily afraid, but i think he is a smart guy.. and he knows what will happen if he goes to the lions den

he cant keep going in circles (maybe he can, but it will bite himself in the ass) so lets continue poking Ward and adressing the subject
..at some point (hopefully 2014/15) this fight will happen, im definitely going to watch it live just like i went to see actionpacked Kessler II in the 02 !!!

not even gonna bother responding to the AIDS comment, just shows how desperate you are to try and diss froch..who in fact looks like a bloody roman gladiator

nothing wrong with being pale, Glenn Danzig is even paler than Froch and he had more trim than you could dream of (especially 10 yrs ago , now he's kindof senior
and occasionally flips out on fans if they try to film him or take photos )
