      Of the current figters I'd pick Martinez and Ward. I was never really a fan of Ricky Hatton but outside the ring he seems like such a great guy so I put him on my list (even though he's retired).

        If he ackowledged the fact that Froch and Kessler gave him a chance to fight for the world title in his country and reversed the favour then yes,

        so no.

            ward fought froch in atlantic city. that's about 5000 km from where he lives. i know you might not acknowledge this, but that's not a fight at home for ward.



            and finally, would froch or kessler do anything but lose 9 or 10 rounds if they fought ward in their respective livingrooms? of course not. they were completely outclassed.

                    The truth hurts.

                    I didn't say it was home. I said his country - it might be a 3 hour plane ride for Ward, but naturally you could understand it was harder for Froch than for Ward - at least give me that.

                    I don't know if they would, neither do you. Maybe if Ward hadn't held Kessler 100+ times and headbuttet him 5+ times it would have been closer. Both guys have beaten top contenders since fighting Ward and are ranked #1 and #2 respectively. Working your way up to a rematch isn't unheard of - only when it comes to Ward.

                    He's arrogant as well. I don't dislike his personality at all actually, he seems like a good guy. But he is a bit arrogant, therefore not the biggest gentleman in the sport.
