Now you know why...

[BattleAxePurist]

I wouldn't blame any1 for not wanting to fight in UK .

[Cuban Linx]

There have been many cases of bad officiating in the US as well. Kirkland/Molina, Mares/Agbeko 1, off the top of my head.

But yeah if you're fighting a british star in the UK you better not get slightly hurt and you better not get up at 9.

You might need to land a knockout as well.

Dirrell already gave Froch a schooling and got robbed, the only way Ward walks out of England with a win is with a KO (he might get DQ'd even then). As soon as Froch lands a jab they'll just stop the fight lol.

ward can fight froch with american judges and an american ref. fly some real judges in from las vegas, and kenny bayless to ref.

Study a map, idiot. Manchester isn't Froch's 'backyard'.

an ward didn't fight froch in his backyard Atlantic city isn't anywhere near oakland

[bojangles1987]

3,000 miles away, on the opposite coast from Oakland=Ward's backyard

80 miles away from Nottingham=Away from home

I didn't say Atlantic City was Ward's 'backyard'.

The UK is a small place; perhaps they could fight on the Falkland Islands? That's British and it's 8,000km from the UK.

[Bigg Rigg]

Ward doesn't want a rematch with Froch in the UK, and why Froch fans are so desperate for a rematch to take place in Froch's backyard lmao.

I would agree but Ward has shown that isn't even trying to leave The Bay Area, let alone The United States. Sorry bro!

Dirrell gave that fight away.
