Carl Froch said these quotes/paraphrases in an interview with On The Ropes:
"Lucian Bute came over to the UK, you saw what happened there. If Andre Ward decided to do the same he'll be getting the same treatment. "
"Andre Ward is very hard to beat. He's got a very boring style, it's not exciting but it's effective."
"If I fought Andre Ward or not, I couldn't care less. Whether I get redemption or revenge over him doesn't matter to me. The style he fights puts me off. It'll be a very difficult night in America because he wins rounds, he nicks them. He's got a negative style, he's not exciting, it's his choice. But excite me, excite people and the broadcasters. The way to beat Ward is to KO him, it's difficult to beat him on points. "
"I don't think Andre Ward wants the fight in the UK. From what he's said in the past he sounds scared. But I don't know what else is out there for him."
"In my opinion Bernard Hopkins is totally opposite to Ward. Look at some of his earlier fights, he went into the danger zone, fired away. Hopkins is still doing it even now. Andre Ward is no Hopkins - he's a good fighter but he'll never be the level of Hopkins"
"I know I'd beat Hopkins now, I'd go up to 172 lbs to fight Hopkins at a catchweight!
